Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Computer mount??
I'm looking for something where I can mount my computer nicely and securely on my stem or handlebar. Maybe some kind of adapter or something.

Right now, I'm using zip-ties and electrical tape, and it doesn't look pretty.

My stem and bar are weird......

thanks

If you can fit this between the stem and the flared part of the handlebars, you're set.

I believe BF's own BDop offers something similar but cheaper on his website.

Yeah, I saw the CT carbon mount, but a little pricey. I probably will get a new stem. The one I have now is supper ugly and big, they all came with the bike, seat post/clamp are all ControlTech carbon. My cranks was CT also, but replaced it.

For now, I'll keep the stem and just get a mount. Because I only have $50 to spend.
