Any suggestions for an alternative source of wheel magnets? I broke my stock RF rear wheel (spokes pulled through rim - note to all, these have a Lifetime Warranty so it was swapped out for a new wheel by the UK Race Face distributor) and swapped a wheel from another bike, but of course forgot to swap over the wheel magnet so arrived for a ride with no working assist.
I can't see any disadvantage to having a magnet fitted to all my wheels so I can swap quickly. But Orbea show it as 'not available' in their spares page Orbea (ie no 'expected date).
It *looks* not dissimilar to this Bosch magnet (Bosch Magnet 6-hole (BDU3, BDU4) Ebike wheel magnet 4054289001513 | eBay) but a friend went through a few different magnets before finding one that would work on his Wild as the magnet-sensor distance appears pretty critical.
