The exposure light mounts via another 1/4 turn adapter that I made. As a plus it stiffens up the front end. Currenty finishing a MCFK faceplate mount.

That is probably less aero than the typical regular option, but super badass! Looks like a throwback to the Space Invaders arcade game!

i ended up getting one as well. as nice as its made, now, i don't have a spot to put my Di2 junction box. i had it under the Garmin.
i'm still moving the arms out and trying that to see if it fits. i have a go pro mount under to clean up my light situation...that's what's getting in the way.

It is a 520. I'm running the short arms. I still have more room on the arms to slide the mount farther out.
Only thing is that I had a heck of a time getting the mount straight. Even using some grease on the bolts and holding the arms as directed...the arms will still want to twist when tightening the bolts.
I did get an email for that recall. So far mine has been good. There is nothing to ship back. They are just going to send new inserts once they are done with production.

Wish the Tillquist mounts had a gopro mount provision.
Anyone know the best solution for a 27mm wide stem mount that will accommodate an edge 1000 and a gopro mount?

Had a helluva time aligning the two posts when tightening it down. I still think it is a bit uneven. How was your experience.

Same here. Got few F3 form mounts. And on all 3 bikes (3 different stems, 3T arx, arxII, and zipp SL) hard to line up properly as the arms keep twisting. But very versatile nonetheless as it can be used on just about all horizontal bolts; bummer won't work on my MCFK and Vibe7s stems.

can't you make drillings to accept a KCNC go pro adapter? would fit on the metal bar under the Garmin mount. yes?
