Has anyone used one of these and can share their experience?

Or can anyone suggest an alternative - locost if possible!

You used to be able to use a cycle speedo as long as it was powered from the Car battery.


$120 Dollars anit bad........ Make sure it reads MPH and find out what speed sensor it uses.

Digi-Dash would be an Alternative

If your using a bec then why not use the associated clocks, all can be found on ebay. My zx10r clocks were sourced for £100

By the time you've paid postage vat and customs then you will be up around there if not more.

I've always liked the look of those... found after I finished my car.

They are also availble in the UK e.g. here for £115 (probs + Vat etc.)

You can't use cycle speedo's any more, they've been excluded by IVA wording.
If it's from the states it will certainly read in mph.

Russbost certainly does sell Acewell stuff, but I don't know if he can get that specific unit.

I can do the 2859W which does loads more than just speedo (tacho, fuel, built in warning lights etc) for IIRC £115 less the 15% discount (not at home at present so can't check price), it's also made to drop straight into a hole in the dash rather than sit in it's own pod like this one.
