Rather like brown shoes and a dark suit, a honey brooks can work really well with lots of unexpected colour combinations, as in this case. Lovely looking bike.

meant to say a much safer place for that cadence sensor is on the seatube  just under bottle cage.

Unfortunately the sensor only has a range of about 1 cm from the magnet otherwise it would be perfect.

Cheers,

Jags, you know it is looking like it works. I have called in the aide of a surplus 5mm neoprene SCUBA diving hood, a pare of scissors & some zip ties ... & it's blinking green .. on & off, looks like one more layer of rubber!. Thanks chap for the lateral thinking.  .

Cheers,

Paul.
