I need to make the hole at the bottom of my GP forks, where the speedo cable enters, slightly larger. Is it ok to drill/grind it? Don’t want to damage bearings or something...🙈

Hi, why do you need to drill, would be my first reaction. I can’t see a reason in the normal cable operation that you would need to

To fit a new SiP speedo sensor cable...they do come apart but opening up the hole might be easier...

Why not thread it through outside the tube.

I have done but the instructions say through the tube and it actually makes more sense to do so and one less wire in the headset..😀
