Reply to "New Handlebar Mounted Counter"

kevinplucasMember

I purchased a new bike recently. The handlebar on the new bike is a bit taller. The taller handlebar presented a bit of a problem to use my cable driven/handlebar counter.

On my old bike I was able to easily install the counter with the counter bracket facing out from the handlebar. With the taller handlebar the counter cable was just too tight. After messing around with it I discovered I could face the counter bracket inward toward the seat, which nicely allowed for the difference in height. I find it best to have the counter cable with smooth curved bends.

The second minor issue with the new bike was accommodating the hydraulic disc brake on the left side of the wheel hub. I’m using the same gear drive, but mounting it on the right side of the hub. I changed the counter model from a 745815 to a 745825, which spins counter clockwise. My cable driven/handlebar counter gear drive can be installed on either side of the wheel hub.
