im looking for a wee clock /temp thingy to fit on the bars ,any ideas ?? theres a cheap digital watch there just now ,but i want a gadget that tells the time AND tells the (air)temp as well. there was athread about this and somebody posted a pic of one ,i think it was meant for a push bike but they never bothered with all the functions ,any body any links/tips/piccies??

Why?

A watch form Argos will do the time, but why would you want to know the air temp???

its just that when the batt goes dud i would replace the cheapo watch with another cheapo clock/temp gauge

There's an Oxford one I think... I got an advert for Infinity in Ride this month, and there was one in it. Also a cut price deal on Knox armour.

was thinkin along this line myself (about fitting the air temp/ambient temp gauge), would want to know the air temp so I known when the temp is approaching 0c, just like when in a cage, although your obviously more at risk on 2 wheels

is only a tenner, dunno if waterproof, but two temps and a clock. You would have to mount the sensor out of the wind chill though.
