Cateye computer mount bit - anyone have one?

I'm missing a bit of a Cateye mount - the bit that attaches the magnet sensor to the fork. I have the actual computer mount and the sensor, this is just the bit that screws into the sensor to fix it to the fork (newer models I believe use adhesive).

Anyone have one of these bits spare? Or any idea where I could pick one up (cheaply)? (The full mount is an option.) I do recall getting a mount from somewhere on the northside a few years ago but can't remember where (was a bit out.)

Can swap a Mity 3 computer for a mount!

Most shops will do spares just call in or make a call and ask

So far I'm not having so much luck with that. From a few years back when I was last looking for this very item I recall it was very difficult to find and only this one shop on the northside had the part. I recall the Cateye "part" plastic bag very well. This shop was... no idea. But I do have a vague memory of passing DCU.

I think I have the mount kit for a CatEye Mity8 at home (I kept losing the computers). I'll have a look to see if the bit you want is there.

Super, I'd really appreciate it.

I have two mounts with sensors, but I have a feeling that neither are what you need.

See the attached image. You could see if the "Bracket Model 0/Sensor Model H" setup works because it uses cable ties to attach the sensor to the fork.

Yes, Bracket Model I/Sensor Model E is exactly what I have, also without the fork bracket- funny how that bit goes missing.

Bracket E/Sensor H (use with cable ties) is what comes with the newer computers - I think that would work for me. I could also do with the magnet if you don't need it- have misplaced that since I last looked. There is normally an adhesive pad bit with the sensor I think but not sure if that is essential?

Typo in the image, Bracket O is with Sensor H. You can have all the bits (bracket/sensor, magnet and rubber mount). I'll PM to arrange collection/delivery.
