How to mount computer on P2C?
 
I purchased a P2C and there does not seem to be any place to mount a computer. How have other mounted their computers?

You make it sound like you're trying to mount your computer to the frame. Is that the case? Or did you mean that there's no room on the *base bar* that came with your P2C frame?

If the latter is what you meant, try purchasing a computer adapter that will attach to the aerobars, and allow you to mount your computer off of an aerobar. See how the computer is mounted in this picture if you aren't sure what I'm talking about.

nice bike...trek 1500, no?

Another solution would be to mount the computer on the stem of the bike. I'm not completely familiar with the P2C so i'm not sure if this would work on that bike, but it's worth a shot to recommend it.

Yep, Trek 1500 :) Since that picture was taken, I bought a REAL tri bike and I've returned to STIs and drops on the Trek!

I don't have a P2C but I do have my computer on the stem with my tri bars and have no problem seeing it for a quick glance.

Another vote for a stem mount which is where I have my Garmin Edge 305. I use sometimes a Profile Design Aerobottle (aka Sir Spillalot) so the bar mount does not work for me.

Profile Design makes an aerobar computer mount - I have it on my P2C mounted just a tad in front of the stem where the bar is still straight.

What it looks like attached to the bar - the computer goes on the round part -

You can typically find it at a well-stocked LBS or online for less than 10 bucks.

I'll have to rethink something for mounting my Garmin Forerunner 305 on my Cervelo P2K

Putting it on the stem is the most practical method

I second the stem option, if you get a decent cycling computer, some will even have the mounting bracket shaped to fit the stem (I recommend ciclosport)...
