Working on an ATV for a neighbor kid.
He bought a digital speedo/tach for it which is actually pretty cool. The speedo part uses a neodymium magnet on the wheel to trigger a sensor. You get to program the unit to calibrate the speedo by figuring the diameter of the rim (I assume).
Problem is, the rims are aluminum.
So the question is, what adhesive would one use to have a reasonable chance of a small magnet staying on the rim under ATV conditions?
Alternatively, if that's too much to ask (and I suspect it may well be...) what other methods of attachment occur to you?
