One thing I can say about the screw with the magnet is that it seems like it would allow the sensor to be farther away from the flywheel minimizing the risk of one of the fins hitting it. It might also allow more cooling air to go around it keeping it cooler & less disruptive of air flow. I do have to wonder if it would be heavy enough to cause an imbalance in the flywheel. It may be possible to drill & tap a second hole 180° away & install an allen bead screw that weighs the same as a counterweight. Perhaps food for thought. I like the idea of a threaded hole with thread locker over epoxy anyway. Mechanical retention over chemical seems more secure to me.Ease of accurate adjustment is a bonus.
