Bodgy solution required for odometer

By Justin - Posted on 16 November 2009

Hey all,

I have several odometers but for someone reason none of the bits that go on the wheel.

Is it just a bit of steel wrapped around a clip for the spoke? If so i think I can bodgy something up, has anyone done this before and can recommend common household items fit for purpose?

Thanks!

I take it you are referring to a magnet that is encased in either ally or plastic?
