I have this mount and mine weighs in at 28 grams.

Raceware > Barfly, in my opinion.

I think this has been the case for years now. Barfly just has better marketing and more market reach.
Raceware is lighter and it works just as well as the rest. That's pretty much all you need to know.

I guess it depends on the bar you have... The raceware for canyon aerocockpit is a POS and that's putting it lightly.

I just use the 'normal' 31.8mm mount. I don't use any of Raceware's "special" mounts.

I don't think he makes it anymore unfortunately. It is a wonderful product. Get the Enve stem and their mount.

That enve mount is not good. Do a search.
If you go to the ENVE site there are user reviews of it and they are quite negative and accurate. . And my experience is the same. I returned mine.

I've bought and used a few REC-Mounts things. Their adapters for GoPro to X-brand lights and many other accessories are especially clever. That said, I bought their Type17 Garmin mount that mounts to stem bolts and it is definitely a pig. I immediately went back to my K-Edge. I'll weigh it when I'm home tonight.

Just got a new mount from FETHA (http://www.fetha.com.au/) to replace my 3 year old Tillquist mount for 3T ARX Team stem. The Tillquist mount was worn to the point where the Garmin wouldn't click in place any more. The new one looks pretty good but weighs 15 g more.
