Hi! I did a quick search of the forums but couldn't find an answer to this question.
I've moved up from an entry-level road bike w/ an alloy fork to a more aggresive road bike with a bladed carbon-fiber fork. My bike is hung with Shimano Tiagra (hey, it's cheap and I'm slow & broke), but I splurged on the wireless Shimano Flight Deck. It fit great on the old cro-mo fork, but not so well on the bladed carbon-fiber fork. In fact...I can't see how to attach it. The two or three-year old FD transmitter unit is mounted on a thing that is, basically, a removable zip-tie. It won't bend around the trailing edge of the fork.
Does anyone know if Shimano or a third-party makes an adapter or something so that I can mount this transmitter on the bladed fork?
