sounds silly, but i like my pink fork.

i need a new computer to keep track of miles and want something very understated for the front fork sensor, thoughts?

If you are using a quick release on your front wheel, this is a slick setup that avoids attaching anything to the fork leg >>> https://www.competitivecyclist.com/pr...paign=Datafeed

+1. If you are really concerned about colors matching you can get a pink receiver for your fork and a black monitor to match your stem
