I really doubt this works.
MicroWireless claims just 70 cm reach to the sensor. Maybe you may achieve it with fresh batteries, but I could not, using mine (with old batteries), which works OK on my MTB.
I would give a try with wired Cateye. Though the special magnet hole is smart.
I fitted a wireless computer on my strida copy. It worked fine for about three hundred miles but now is reading very low and erratic speeds. I checked out the magnet and sensor position and they are fine. I suspect that the battery in the sender unit is now losing power and that the signal is failing to reach the handlebar unit.
I will do a check by spinning the wheel with the handlebar unit held at different distances from the wheel and see if I can replicate the issue and make it work properly by moving it closer.
EDIT:
It does work better when moved closer. It seems to be right on the edge of its operational range right now. I opened the sender unit and removed the battery. The voltage is 12.04V. The unit has a nominal voltage of 12 v, but when I measure brand new 1.5volt batteries they read about 1.59v - 1.60v. Maybe this battery is well within its parameters for 60cm separation, but not for the Strida distance - whatever that is.
I found a crafty way of getting around the wireless range problem I was having with my wireless cycle computer. The range was ok with a brand new battery when the computer was on the handlebar, but quite quickly it stopped working at the separation on the small wheeled Strida copy I have. So I mounted the computer on the front mudguard or Fender as some call it. This is a neat solution. I can see it fine from my riding position, and have no need to change modes when riding so now there is no problem and I am getting correct and accurate readings of both speed and mileage. Here’s a photo.
I used the normal handlebar mounting hardware, but cut off the plastic strap that links the click on mounting socket and the captive nut. I bored a small hole in the plastic mudguard with a small bit soldering iron and clamped the mounting socket centrally on top of the mudguard with the nut underneath. I can slip the speedo on and off the mudguard just as I used to do with it on the handlebar.
When I bought the wireless computer, it wasn’t intended to go there. I had it on the handlebar for about four months. It worked fine for a while and then started giving really erratic performance and completely false readings. I believe the battery voltage has declined slightly and now weakens the signal enough to stop it working on the handlebar. A few tests showed it couldn’t make the range any more. It is a lot further from the sender unit than it would be on a traditional bicycle. So - now I ended up with a semi redundant computer. Mounting it to the mudguard means I can use it again. I reckon it will work for ages down there.
