need a new out front mount that fits "aero" road bars. no way I can back to stem mounted Garmin. my K-Edge works with round bars only and I dont see them having an other options. makes me sad, but i can blame my new bike and that makes me happy. any recommendations?

There are a few threads about out front mounts.
Tillquist is not making those mounts anymore as I recall.

Try contacting werking cycles (werking.cc) for a custom carbon mount. Alloy mounts are so 5 years ago :)

I wouldn't recommend Barfly stem mounts, their Garmin tabs don't hold the Edge securely. They work for 3T or Fizik stems.

I bought the Fizik version and my Edge random ends up at weird angles during the ride, I can't even say why it happens. The Barfly 2.0 had the same problem. Maybe just normal road bumps. Ended back with the Garmin mount and don't worry about it anymore.

Handlebar Giant Contact SLR Aero, Composite, 31.8mm
Stem Giant Contact SL, OverDrive 2

stock ones so far.

specifically looking for one that fits the larger aero bars. not 31.8 bars which is why i asked. Giant has one listed on their site but its hard to get. no shops really carry it around these parts.
