Thanks for the tip. I was wondering why I was finishing a lap down. That explains it. The others must've had two magnets.

I got that top tip from weight weenies!.
Generally it's not an issue (and I perhaps never with bike computers - I am no expert on them), but SOME reed switches are configured to operate in a particular way whereby they have a fixed bias magnet to create a local magnetic field, and then the north pole / south pole orientation of the moving magnet does matter. One way it will work, the other it won't.Polarity with a reed switch? LOLOL!
