Fulcrum 1 spoke magnets

proto

The spoke magnet that came with my Garmin is no use on the very wide bladed spokes on my Fulcrum 1 wheels. A Mavic magnet sort of works if butchered a bit but it's not great. Anyone know of a better solution?

Get one of these and stick it to your spoke,superb.

Thanks both. Th Mavic one looks like it would do the job. (the Mavic magnet I tried was off my Cosmics, and is a different design)

I've also got some small magnets at work, same size as in that link, 4 x 3mm, might give that a go too.

Cheers.

Hi Proto

Was worried about the same problem when I switched from round spokes to flat bladed spokes on a new wheelset.

No need to worry if you have a Cateye computer - the magnet provided is set up with two profiles so that you can attach it to either type of spoke. Spare magnets are fairly cheap so i would suggest you try one of these:-

Thanks again, but the spokes on the Fulcrum 1 are so wide that even magnet from ny Cosmic Carbones (bladed spokes) won't work. Don't think that Cateye one will either.

Probably worth stumping up the cash for the proper Fulcrum one then
