Does the new magnet-less speed / cadence sensor work with Bromptons?

Hi there

I'd like to use the 510 with my Brompton. Couldn't do it before as the all-in-one GSC thingie didn't work--Brompton's wheel is too small and doesn't extend enough to be aligned with the sensor.

Now, there's the new two piece speed / cadence sensor that came out with the speed attaching to the hub and cadence attaching tot he cranks.

So to Brompton owners: any of you have used this with your bike?

The problem that I foresee is with the speed censor -- the front hub of Brompton looks small (narrow) and it's very curved, not sure that the censor can fit. The rear wheel hub, on the other hand, has very large diameter (kinda like a dynamo hub), not sure the supplied rubber bands could fit as well.

So, if owners have successfully used it with their Brompton, please let me know. If there's any modifications required, please also do tell me.

Thanks!
