Fancy a bike computer, but don’t want the bulk?

“Fits all MTB forks. Each CoreCap comes with 3 lengths of bottom bolts that allow you to install it on forks with steerer tubes reaching from 15cm-30cm.

Take the bottom bolt with the protective cap and screw it to the CoreCap device from the bottom of the fork. You’re all ready to go!”
As for what the computer computes, you can choose from a host of functions to place on up to five preset screens, which you scroll through by rotating the dial around it:

The CoreCap has been successfully Kickstarted, and there’s still 41 days left to get in on it. At press time there were still a few Early Bird units left at $273, but you’ll have to be a bit patient: Units are expected to ship by April of next year.
