That mount wasn't designed for this stem I think, rather it works with the Vibe stem(alloy one and maybe the previous carbon iteration)

So the website says "universal mount" compatible or available. Does that mean there's some Shimano/PRO branded mount available for this newer Vibe Carbon stem?? The K-Edge obviously isn't a perfect fit.

Wondering the same thing? I have the Vibe Aero handlebar. I would like to get the matching stem, but the lack of a clean looking Garmin mount option makes me hesitant.

I have a pro vibe carbon stem + pro vibe aero superlight handlebar. I use a rec-mounts garmin mount. Works well :)

Just to "yes and" the posts above -- the usual K-Edge mount will not work on the Vibe aero bars (I nearly lost a fingertip trying to make it work). They sell a very specific mount for these bars only, but I'm sad to hear those don't sit straight!

I don't have the bike anymore and the stem/bars and just sitting in my basement but IIRC I believe you're right, that mount (which is the one I had) was specifically for the older bar/stem combo.

Looks like this new bar/stem combo would need a new specific mount.

Any Pro Vibe Carbon stem news and real world reviews? I was decided to go for Zipp SL Speed stem but this one looks more aero and better overall.
I am interested in stiffness and weight.

Thanks

Computer mount aside, how is the stem compared to other you´ve ridden guys?

I like the cool look and ´aeroness´ of it, but need stiff stem for sprints at the same time. Almost no reviews anywhere.

I found these mounts on ali, they seem to be the exact same mounts that ccache sells. This way you will be able to mount your head unit straight and centre so everyone can sleep at night :)

No angle adjustment. Despite the stem offered in different angles?

So, if you have -10 degree Pro Vibe Alloy stem, the computer mount will raise up by 10 degree and with -17 degree Pro Vibe Alloy stem, computer mount will be parallel to the ground?

I´ve bought the mount for the Pro vibe stem, from this store, and is just perfect :)
