Computer on a vintage bike???
Help me out here. There are times I'd like a cyclocomputer, mostly as a simple odometer. For a long time in the old days I'd used one of those mechanical things with a star wheel turned by a pin on a spoke. (It tightened up so much it wasn't usable any more.) But I can't see putting an electronic computer on the '73 Gran Sport. It just seems wrong. The aesthetics call out for simplicity. Such a dilemma.
