First prototype of a THM Tibia computer mount. 3D-printed and off the shelf parts. 23,6 grams with potential to go much lighter.
I can easily make one but I don't know if it would be safe to use.
Let’s say their previous models (gen 1-2) was 5g was breaking on first installation/removal but was not causing any problem during usage (it use to part vertically so had 2 half shim).Lucendi wrote:I can easily make one but I don't know if it would be safe to use.
That’s how they looked like.

Is that 3D printed? It is hard to tell. I'd think that a machined Delrin (acetal) part would work as that plastic handles compression very well. Probably would need some grip paste to keep it from slipping due to the slippery nature of acetal. It wouldn't be as light as a 3D printed part but would be significantly lighter than aluminum.
I also think it is Delrin, aka POM aka IGUS.joejack951 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 17, 2022 3:12 pmIs that 3D printed? It is hard to tell.

It is known as the filament that shall not be named. It is according to legend the most difficult material if not impossible to print.

Fun fact, in the sport of BMX people use solid delrin bushings instead of bottom bracket bearings. It is self lubricating and it has just enough drag so that the pedals don't move too much doing tricks.

Pretty sure it would be possible to make it more aero but maybe not as nice looking.
Flat and thin with aero shape. Same width as the computer and a lot thinner

I need to look back, gen 2 was black and definitively 3D printed… and also broke (same design, the thinnest part is… very thin) probably during maintenance, nevertheless still totally usable.

I could go the aero route if someone would order me to make one. I can reverse engineer the original mount that comes in the box with the Wahoo Elmnt Bolt V2, change the handlebar clamp to the faceplate mounting and then extend the shape of the computer all the way towards the faceplate.
Alternatively I could make it a 2 component part. First a structural mount and then an aero fairing the snap fits around it and is easily removable.
But first I am making one to be as light and strong as possible.
I am calling this mount a WIN! This 3rd prototype rocks.
I had an idea of filling up the entire hole in the face plate. This completely eliminates the possibility of the computer mount moving around (also means that there is no adjustability of the angle once printed). It fits so nice and snug I have to really pull on it it take it apart again.
The locking mechanism is a water bottle M5 rivnut in aluminium, it clamps down on the inside groove just like other THM Tibia/Schmolke TLO computer mounts, but this is off the shelf and inexpensive. No expensive/unattainable custom machined aluminium parts needed.
