I got my trailtech computer and it didnt come with any mounting instructions for the sensor. It has a crappy b/w picture of the side of the bike with the tire off which shows the brake caliper to show how to run the wire and i think i kinda know where it goes but how did anyone else mount it. what did you use to mount it.
thanks in advance.

This is going to be a rough attempt at explaining this. My trail tech came with good instructions and pictures. You need to mount the senson on the bottom of the brake caliber mount. Remove the brake caliber and the sensor will fit on the bottom side of the caliber mount (between the two bolt holes). You need to drill a small hole (can't remember the size) and the sensor comes with a small, self tapping screw. Once you get it lined up, drill the hole and screw it in. Only takes a few minutes to do. I would post some pictures, but the atv is in the garage, buried behind a mound of other stuff (makes stealing it harder). Maybe someone else can post some pics.

Thanks, i wish it came with directions that good. also is there a way to change it from km/hr to m/hr. I think they forgot to put most of the directions in the box since all i got was a sheet on cable routing. I figured out how to change wheel size its circumference in mm isnt it? thats what my bike spedo is.

I think you need to send trail tech an email asking for the rest of the directions. Mine came with a big double sided sheet of operating instructions. Yes, the wheel size is in mm. I use 1660 for stock tires. This will give you a start point.
