  • acewell issues

    just got my new speedo from acewell, had a hellova time calibratin it. set it for a 17inch wheel and it read 20mph slow. so i hooked up my cable speedo and rode around and adjusted it. anyone else have simalar problems? also, i can't seem to find my neutral light wire, i know its blue but its not getting power, is there something that has to be hooked up that i don't know about? i know my clutch lever sensor isn't hooked up but everything else is...

    I believe you are supposed to set it up for the OUTSIDE DIAMETER of the tire, not the rim size.

      If I remember right I thought the neutral worked as a grounded system like a car horn. Anyone else know for sure?

        how would one calculate the outside diameter of the tire? its a 120/60, would that be 17inches (whatever it was in mm) plus the 60? now that its dialed in its around a 26 inch tire. (at least thats what it says in the instructions.) wierd.

          Measure it?


          Im glad to see you got it dialed in. I had issues getting my bicycle computer dialed in as well (had to measure, then divide, then look up a code, enter said code, take the dog for a walk, let him pee on the neighbor...but, it works now)
          It doesn't matter what you ride, as long as you ride.

            Hello,

            I use one of the TrailTech computers for a speedo on my Kat. It's the outside of the tire you want. I use 600mm (Canada, therefore KM) which is 23.62in or so. But mine might be out a tad too. I plan on measuring it proper this weekend to use a correct value.

            TTYL, jeff
