May 11, 20178 yr Did anyone ever see one? I would love to have it, bu can't find one ANYWHERE. I would even make a mount for it myself if there would be one small and simple enough. This is the closest I got, but it is still too big: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Digital-LCD-Thermometer-Humidity-Temperature-Hygrometer/32790010723.html
May 11, 20178 yr May I ask. the size? Only. the link won't work on. my phone for some reason My brother has quite small ones for use in his campervan business
May 11, 20178 yr This type of bicycle computer has the temperature on it. It works on mine but I am not sure how acurate it is as I've nothing to compare it with. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bike-LED-Computer-Speedometer-Odometer-Backlight-Meter-Cycle-Bicycle-Waterproof/262876560229?_trksid=p2054502.c100227.m3827&_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D39356%26meid%3D9e52fa6915824bc3a2f0750fa25981d6%26pid%3D100227%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D15%26mehot%3Dag%26sd%3D200932367482
May 11, 20178 yr Perhaps try looking for fish tank thermometers. I've used one of these for various applications and it's pretty accurate. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Aquarium-Fish-Tank-Thermometer-Water-Temperature-Gauge-LCD-Digital-Useful-AL-/222285498767?hash=item33c13f898f Dave.

May 12, 20178 yr Author Thank you for the ideas. A cheap bicycle computer with thermometer might really be the best solution.
May 12, 20178 yr A handle bar thermometer would be so inaccurate in the summer months as the sun's radiated heat will be absorbed into the black case and give over exaggerated readings. I've tried
May 12, 20178 yr I love technology but why a temp gauge on your bike, is it to let you know when it cold enough to zip your jacket up, or warm enough to take it off completely :) what ever next ? A moisture detector to tell you when it's raining LOL
May 15, 20178 yr Author I just like numbers. Same reason for altimeter, speedometer, odometer, HRM, etc... As for inaccuracy, it is actually pretty accurate when riding at least 10mph.
