About
I am not a professional eBayer. When buying, I pay within minutes of the end of an auction if I'm at home and awake at the time. When selling, I ship next business day (weather and family commitments permitting) and offer returns for most items.

Works with Data Station 8 and Data Station 13
This "long reach" kit is exactly the same as the mount, magnet sensor, and connecting wire that comes with the Origin8 Data Station 8 and the Origin8 Data Station 13 except that the connecting wire is longer. It is long enough to work on the rear wheel of stationary bikes and tadpole tricycles and between the front wheel and often extra-long stem/handlebars of recumbent bicycles. I use it with recumbent bikes.
Wired cyclometers don't suffer interference issues, don't need to have their batteries replaced as often, and don't have any battery at the magnet sensor at all. Wireless cyclometers certainly enjoy a convenience factor but once a wired cyclometer is installed (NOT a complex project) it works better – and costs less, too.

Great hand-filling mouse for righties but the tilting scroll wheel is a mess.
I really don't need a wireless mouse at my desk. Why should I deal with batteries or charging or pairing or waking from sleep and all that nonsense when I have an available USB port? This mouse has the usual buttons for left-click, right-click, a clickable scroll wheel that also tilts left and right (more on that below), and two thumb buttons. It has a nice heft, I like to feel a little weight in my hand with a mouse and many wired mice are too light for my taste; this one is just right. It fills my hand nicely and is taller than any mouse I've used for a while, I could stand for it to be a little taller but it's fine. The scroll wheel can be set for indented scrolling (you will feel a little bump every few degrees of rotation) or freewheeling (you can spin the scroll wheel really fast), there's a button behind the scroll wheel to toggle the scroll wheel's behavior. Both scroll wheel modes are useful, indented scrolling is better for me 99% of the time. The glide pads on the bottom of the mouse are very high quality, the mouse moves nicely over both my bare desk and my mouse pad. The USB cord is 5ft long.
All the other buttons are easy to trigger and to not trigger accidentally but the tilting scroll wheel is worthless. When I try to use the clickable scroll wheel to trigger Mouse Button 3 I almost always also trigger one of the two scroll wheel tilt buttons, too – usually the left tilt. And when I try to trigger just left-tilt or just right-tilt, sometimes I trigger Mouse Button 3 as well. The tilt buttons are just too sensitive. I used to have a Logitech MX1000 (actually still do, 2 in fact, but they're over 15 years old and hard to keep in good repair) and that mouse's tilt buttons were perfect. I had to set the two tilt buttons to either emulate Mouse Button 3 or set them to null (i.e. they do nothing) which means they might as well not be there on this mouse.
I like this mouse a lot, I don't see changing to another anytime soon. But the inability to actually use the tilt buttons is really a shame. I could definitely put them to use but since they're so sensitive and get triggered so easily when trying to just do a scroll wheel click they are useless.
