Anyone got any photos of how they've fitted speed sensors for digital speedos?

Also should the magnet be fitted so that it attracts the sensor or repulses?

Cheers

That looks superb but I was really interested to see anyone who'd used a more basic bracket?

Still curious about the magnet?

Some senders need the north of the magnet facing towards them to work and some need the south

when jason frost first did mine he put the magnet in the worm drive inside the hub and the cable into the hub through the existing speedo drive

Thanks all. Looks like I'll finally have to get a disc fitted up front. Don't suppose anyone out there has fitted one to a drum set up using a simple bracket?

Also any idea on the magnet question - attracting or repulsing?
