I think this should work, but want to ask in case I'm missing something obvious.
About to install a computer on my new bike (Cateye Mity 3). I want to route the cabling as neatly as
possible and so the plan is to use a stem kit to mount it centrally on the A-head stem. I intend to
pass the fork sensor down through the inside of the fork, past the star fangled nut and neatly down
the inside of the fork to where it will
live.
I've checked the sensor assembly and it gently comes apart enough to get it past the star fangled
nut so I won't have to mess with that. However, I need to have the cable pass through the stem cap
if this is to work. This means I have to put a small cut in it.
Checking Sheldon's site tells me that once the stem is properly fitted (bolted tightly etc) then the
stem cap and star fangled nut serve no real function and take no stress. So, there's no reason why I
can't hacksaw a small slot in the plastic stem cap to pass my comp cable through is there?
Thanks if you can help.
