Product Description
One of my proudest designs so far....
Features:
Weight is a measured 17g without hardware.
Overview
For those not aware, UCI rules prevent track cyclists from mounting their Garmin device where it can be read whilst racing. A simple rule to improve safety whilst on the track.
I've tried a number of different solutions myself and have seen a number of DIY attempts on other bikes but have now designed a mount which gives me the best method of carrying my Garmin whilst track racing.
Application
The mount fixes to almost all saddle rails and holds your Garmin at the back of your saddle where is has minimal aerodynamic effect. The position is convenient for starting/stopping an activity as well as removing your device.
The below hardware is also required and very simple to source locally:
Receiving your mount
Because there are multiple parts to the Garmin Mount the 3D model is printed with a loop. A 2mm tube through the hole centres (not touching) of each part. This keeps the items together and simplifies processing. When you receive your mount simply cut the loop with pliers or scissors and discard.
About Me
I’m a MEng Aerospace Engineer and former professional cyclist. All the items, including this mount, are ones which I’ve developed and use myself. A hobby which I take too far but want to share with others.
Feel free to get in contact with any questions or feedback. Individual customisation will be considered.
Model Revisions
Revision 3 (current) - Dimensions tweaked on lower part. Looping added.
Revision 2 - Garmin mount tolerances tweaked.
Revision 1 - Production Issue.
Features:
- Mounts your Garmin behind your saddle.
- Perfect for track cyclist.
- Lighteight, aerodynamic, durable design.
- 1x M5x30mm cap screw and 1x M5 locking nut also required.
