    I have posted this on my build thread to, but figured some one may be looking for an alternative to buying a new speedometer. In my case, I just didn't want one. I rather not have the extra wires and gauge. At first I was going to get a bike/hiking gps, the kind that are meant to be handheld and used in your car. So basically you put it in your car drive to the biking/hiking spot and take it out to use on the trail. It is water proof and all. Well I was setting around and though, there is an app for everything. I searched for the speedometer app and sure enough I found one. The app in the pic is the free version, the paid version gives you more options with styling. I found a water proof case and strapped it on. It works, and goes off of gps. Of course it is a little slower than a typical speedo but it works. I can take it on and off as I please, and still have that Bobber less is better meantality.
