I'm looking for the best way to mount my cycle computor sensor to the fork of my new Fuji Marseille.
With my old bike (paint over steel) I just snugged down the cable ties untill they gripped--
no problem.
However, the carbon blades are very smooth and slippery. The cable ties don't really "grip" the
carbon forks. The cable ties just seem to slide down the fork blades. I'm afraid to really use a lot
of force to tighten the cable ties down for fear of scratching the blade surface. In addition, the
blades of the carbon fork are very wide at the top, probably a good 1.5 to 2 inches...makes it
ungainly to use cable ties.
I was thinking about using black electrical tape. It's grippy and would not clash too badly with the
black carbon fork blades. Are tape adhesives compatible with the carbon fork surface?
Does anyone have alternate ways for mounting their sensors?
Thanks!
