What speedometer are you using?

[Deleted member 8310]

I tried a Bell wireless that failed to operate properly and thus returned it.

Bought an old style cable speedo on eBay that will work on my cruiser but
not my mountain bike.

What speedos have you used that work as advertised?

Please give details like wired, wireless, cable, brand?

speedometer

My two cents, I have used a bell from wally world about 1200 miles on it, on two bikes. i checked by going around a section ( 4 miles ) to verify that it was accurate. any way i am happy with it.:helmet:

I have a Trek Incite Wireless. I had to change the magnet but works fine. Cheap, simple, small, and cool looking.

I get those 9 dollar Schwinn digital speedometers at Wal Mart.

Cheap Schwinn for me too, just don't go wireless and change your plug wire and you should be good to go.

Perhaps I had a bad Bell?

"Don't go wireless and change spark plug wire"

This makes sense to me (wireless) because the Bell worked till I trottled the
engine then it would only read 0.0. I have a 4 stroke is the spark plug wire
still important?

$9 sounds great, it would be the cheapest addition on the bike.

I have three Cateye Enduro 8's. they work solid.

Plug wire is not an issue with the 4 strokes as the ignition is usually not as noisy(EMI) as the 2 stroke.

 

[give me vtec]

have a cheapo wireless bell from wal-mart on my GEBE townie. No problems yet.
