Anyone know of some 'decent' ones. The Sigma supplied ones won't
attract a whore in a crack house. The Bosch type ones always seem to
corrode and fall off, and on top of that are easy to X-Thread. The
Cat-Eye ones don't seem to stay put[1]. The Echowell/Yamaha ones seem
pretty decent but are like rocking horse **** this side of the pond.
Any other ideas?
[1] Yes, it is getting OCD!
When I lost the cadence magnet on my crank I used a hard-drive magnet,
i.e. https://www.ebay.com/itm/173209158372 but I got some used ones
from someone I knew at a disk drive company. I heat shrinked it over the
crank. I guess for a wheel magnet you could use some cable ties or some
baling wire and attach one of these to the spokes. The pick-up doesn't
have to be so close to the magnet when you use a disk drive magnet.
