Why do you want it?

You use either a Garmin or Wahoo bike computer (or both) and are looking for a computer mount for your bike that has following features:

  • Angle Adjustable
  • "Hidden" GoPro-style mount for accessories
  • Easy to level and remove
  • Lightweight: as little as 34g for a stem mount, and 24g Blendr / ICS Mount
  • Repairable w/replaceable 1/4 turn inserts and other parts
  • Resistant to flex, even offroad

You are either using a stem that uses M5 bolts with a 24-40mm bolt spacing on the bottom two bolts, or your bike uses an ICS, Blendr, or other GoPro-style accessory attachment for a computer.

Right now, these are produced to order with a ~10-day lead time. As volumes increase, we intend to try to shorten the lead times for common fitments and lower the price.

What is it?

Despite a crowded market with both low-cost and mounts with fantastic designs, this mount was designed out of frustration with what was on the market. The body of the mount is printed to match your specific stem bolt spacing. If the option for you is not yet listed, message us and we will adjust our design to suit at no additional charge.

Designed to be angle-adjustable, this computer mount features +/- 25 degrees of angle adjustment, allowing you to find a level position for your computer. Additionally, the "hidden" accessory mount is designed to accept two-prong GoPro-style accessories with a +/-15 degree adjustment from the angle of the computer mount.

The angle adjustment also allows for easy installation, as you can flip the mount up to gain unobstructed access to the stem bolts. The design of the stem bolt adapters eliminates the need for additional standoffs or small parts, ensuring the mount remains centered during installation and does not tilt to one side.

Inspired by the need for a solid yet lightweight mount to hold a Garmin 1030/1040 and an aero sensor, this mount is designed to be stiff and resistant to movement or flexing over bumps and rough terrain. An aero-section-based extension for use with that kind of sensor is also available here: https://aprotobike.com/products/gopro-style-aero-extender-50mm It is 50% off when bundled with this mount.

The mount features a parametric design that allows me to customize it for any stem bolt spacing. The stem bolt adapters are made from 3D-printed and anodized 6061 aluminum to ensure the stem bolts stay secure. If you prefer to use an existing GoPro-style mount adapter, ICS or Blendr mount, that option is also available.

There are two different M5 bolt kits available for this mount, one made using 18-8 stainless bolts and another using 6/4 (Grade 5) Titanium bolts. The weight of the mount using the stainless bolts is ~43-47g and is ~34-38g

The mount also includes features you probably don't care about, but we did like the ability of the mount to drain water and a design that uses countersunk hardware where it might matter. We considered aero in the design, but we won't make a claim since we can't test anything that accurately.

Lastly, the computer mount uses a standard, injection molded 1/4 turn puck. Using a 2mm hex or Allen wrench, you can remove and rotate the puck for compatibility with both Wahoo and Garmin devices. These 3rd party inserts are also replaceable if they break. 

If you break any part of this mount, we will replace it at cost for as long as these mounts are sold.

Installation instructions can be found here.

How is it Made?

This 3d printed computer mount is made from a combination of PA12 Nylon and anodized 6061 aluminum.

Nylon parts are professionally printed in the USA using commercial-grade HP MJF machines. 6061 parts are SLM printed using one of the world's largest metal 3d printers based in China and anodized by that same production partner.

Injection molded parts, bolts, nuts, and washers are globally sourced.

Note: Items are produced when ordered and have a 4-10 day lead time. This purchase is ONLY for the mount and related hardware. Any additional mounts,  bike computer, aero sensor, etc., are not included and are pictured for illustrative purposes only.
