The other ones… (1) I don't trust rubber-bands to hold expensive things to a bike, (2) won't work on "crowded" handlebars, and (3) the GPS can't sit above the bars for better visibility, and it can't sit below the bars for protection in a crash.
What I want is basically just an out-front style mount, but made for 22.2mm bars. No one makes such a thing??
The cycling world has moved on to 31.8 bars. Get used to it and use a frigging shim.
