SRM PC8 mount
Moderator: robbosmans
I have just switched to SRM cranks and waiting on the PC8 to come but i have the new Enve SES bars in the smallest size and envy stem and I'm worried the mount won't fit as there is not a lot of room. Does anyone here have any experience with this problem and or a solution over searching high and low on the web and come up empty. I found a few custom mount places but they didnt have a solution and thought if anyone would know it would be the forum. Thanks Corey

I know one guy who had to create a custom mount for his PC8 to mount it to his new Venge Vias. PM me, and I can try to put you in touch with him.

What is the stem that you are running? If the ENVE SES bar is use with ENVE carbon stem then there is really not much room left. If I recall correctly there is ~3 - 4mm space left on the left and right of the bar clamping area when using with an ENVE stem. If you are using a stem with a narrower clamping then you might still have a chance to enough clearance for a 3rd party mount.
I'm running the enve carbon stem with it and i have the 38mm wide bars so there is pretty much no room left, I'm guessing on the wider ones there might be a little more but not with mine. The shop is at a loss and a few places say they are in the process of developing something as the pc8 has generated a lot of interest but most are still a few months away and i need some help now otherwise ill have to keep using the old garmin until i find a solution which is really annoying. i found a carbon repairer that might be able to do something with the integrated mount but i cant even get one of them for a PC8 as yet as they are not available only the older version made for the PC7. silly annoying problem to have and the shop didn't realise until the whole custom build which took three months is finished.
does the pc7 mount work with the pc8? i am struggling to find a mount for the srm period besides the stock one (and that is over priced). problem with the stock one is it is easy to round the plastic which holds the back nut in place.

Anything new on the market to address this? I'll be putting the SES bars on soon and need a solution for the PC8.

Yep, the pc7 mount works fine. I have both and don't really notice any difference.
