Thanks! No far away in Vancouver!
Use one of the parcel receiving services in Blaine/Point Roberts.
Yes the way to go in many cases (we use Sumas as we are closer to it)
But now the Garmin mount for the Pro Vibe stem/ handlebar will be distributed from Shimano (as from January).

Anyone know which out front mount (Garmin) will work with an Enve aero carbon bar? I use a Pro stem so the Enve mount is out of the question. There's not a lot of room from the stem clamp to the part where the handlebar begins to flare.

how about stem bolt mounts?
one of these should work

Good ideas. On the Pro stem the faceplate bolts face the other direction. Any other ideas?

Look at that. Just looked here last week and these weren't posted. Thanks for the heads-up.

I just received two mounts from Tillquist, for my Ritchey WCS 4-axis stem (the shorter one for edge 500). They are light, sexy, and awesome. Very happy customer.
I tried the Fetha mounts first (because they are local to me, Melbourne, Oz) but then realised that their product for Ritchey 4-axis stem is 9mm, not 14mm (not sure why). They were very pleasant and no issues with refund. I'm sorry to say (for them) that Tillquists product is far superior in every way. Even the bolts he sent were lighter and looked nicer.
(Have had my computer on my stem for years... hated the aesthetic of a single arm of plastic... but the bolt-on option is awesome)

Followed up with k-Edge on the Garmin/Pro mounts. They confirmed they have absolutely no distribution rights; they are only the manufacturer. Shimano is the sole distributor.

a tad pricey for a pair of carbon tubes though
I have just ordered a pair- hopefully they’re as good as the cages

I ordered two of them also. Anxious to see how they fit/work. (I had the F3 FormMount, and although very clever and nicely made, didn't suit me very well.)
