cheers dude! yea it's so hard to capture the color of this. originally i was going to paint this thing boonen style , but i really love this highlighter color!
the garmin mount 2 sided was a necessity. E-friend Whereswaldo helped me spec it up, but basically 44mm stem faceplate width and a 58-60mm (unknown) clamp area of the specialized aerofly bar, did not allow for a 1-sided arm barfly 10mm wide arm to bolt next to stem. There isn't enough room before the bar becomes a 'wing' profile. So the only options to my knowledge that exist for garmin are the original rubber band garmin mounts, fetha.com.au direct mount (75$ and wait time) , rec-mounts (60$ looks way worse than fetha and from japan), or this custom double sided as shown with 7mm arms. The mount is basically mm perfect and nearly doesn't work, but it does wonderfully!!! My friend who owns a zip sl70 bar says his clamp area is even smaller so im not sure how many applications this would work with. Im super stoked about it!
