[QUOTE="Moneybox, post: 669677, member: 3960"] [ATTACH type="full"]10235[/ATTACH] My detectors have done thousands of kilometres in this position. The only issue is that when you hit about 70kph the coil lifts in the wind and puts a bit of stress on the bungee. I've put a bit of pinch mould rubber on the sharp back edge of the foot pedal, a bit of carpet glued to the rear mudguard and a bit of carpet glued into to recess in the front mudguard. My leg sits outside the detector and it never moves. I've never pressed the footbrake so that's not a problem, I usually brake with both front and rear hand brakes at the same time. If you are in bushy country you can reduce the shaft length to bring the coil height down. [/QUOTE]
