For Zipp stems, this is a clean, flexible way to mount a computer and a front light or camera. It incorporates a asymmetric and reversible faceplate, giving you high & low mounting options, helpful for clearing any cables/hoses at the front of the bike. Its arm swings up/down to adjust the angle of the computer, and of course the GoPro mount enables you to separately adjust where the light or camera points. Its arm is also reversible in case you want the GoPro on top for some reason.
Resolving various complaints in other reviews:
Length: It accommodates the Edge 1030 nicely, leaving just enough room to reach the buttons on its lower edge. Longer than needed for smaller computers. Zipp probably wanted to avoid offering a variety of lengths.
Weight: It's made of 7575 aluminum so at 79g it feels heavier than Garmin's plastic Out Front mount (47g). But it eliminates the stem faceplate (20g), and includes a GoPro mount (21g GoPro adapter required on the Garmin), for a net added weight of 38g, essentially the same as the Garmin long or short adapters. Either way, the 23g handlebar mount for my Lezyne light is eliminated.
Cost: $xx vs $xx+ cost of a GoPro adapter for the Garmin, not a huge difference. Plus how much is it worth to get a tidier look?
Scuffing: 1/4 turn mount does not scuff the bottom of my Edge 1030.
Computer and light should be secured to the handlebar to avoid damage in a crash. Garmin makes a nice elastic tether for this, supplied with the Edge, also available separately.
This mount works well and I really appreciate the Gopro mount on the bottom. It's a bit on the long side but works well enough and adjustability regarding display angle is adequate. While this mount is listed as for Service Course SL stems, the finish is that of just the Service Course line. This means it doesn't match the finish of a Service Course SL stem which is a matte dark grey finish as opposed to the semi-gloss black of the Service Course line.
easy to install, works great. I bought a Light and Motion VIS 700 Light Tundra and the gopro mount to use with it and it all works great. Love the slick look and all the room I have back on my bars without the old light & ELMNT mounts crowding things up.
The mount works perfect with my Zipp Carbon SL Speed Stem. Using with Wahoo Elemnt Bolt. I like the ability to change the angle of the mount.
These are so good I ordered one for each of my bikes!!
Neat out-front integrated system but more expensive, heavier than the competition, and absurdly long!
Works as described and would buy another one if needed.
It's very expensive for what you get, it's heavy, and the front end sticks out a mile from the stem -- much further than I want it to. Also, it marred and scratched the mounting surface of my Wahoo Elemnt Bolt computer just installing and removing the Bolt a few times. On the plus side, the computer feels very solidly attached to the mount. I was going to use it with Bolt on top and Bontrager Flare light on bottom (using an adapter), but I'm going with a K-Edge mount instead. I wouldn't recommend this mount.
Solid mount option but I think I would prefer a 90* swappable option for the lower mount. the zipp mount is fixed and you cannot swap your camera/flashlight quickly. not a dealbreaker but not ideal.
4/5 I like it, don't necessarily love it, though. 3/5 Reasonable price, probably 4 stars if you catch it on sale. Overall, the mount is nice if you use the beefy Sprint SL stem and actually want your device to be centered. OCD-ers rejoice. The actual mount arm piece is a bit thick, though. Not sure it needed to be. Also, the finish is matte alum, and while it doesn't really clash with the polished carbon stem, it doesn't exactly match either. Would love to see a polished version. Taking it out of the packaging, it feels "heavy" but once mounted you don't notice the few extra grams despite it's size as noted above.
I used these with my Zipp SL-70 aero carbon handlebar for a clean setup of my computer and light, replacing the K-Edge mount. Installation was easy and it fits perfectly. Love the clean look out front.
Fantastic Garmin Edge mount for Zipp stem. Not the lightest nor cheapest of option but a fantastic streamline addition while clearing the handlebar of a traditional Garmin out-the front mount. Highly recommend the
I have bought two of these mounts and absolutely love them. I got rid of both my Garmin mounts . This mount allows your bike to be symmetrical instead of the mount hanging from one side. Great quality and perfectly built to be attached to the stem. Beautiful and practical.
Downsides are that it's pricey, also you will need a torque wrench and the stem from the same vendor obviously.
This is a great clean solution for Zipp stem owners to clean up their cockpit. Added bonus that it helps in getting those handlebars straight, because it's so long you can definitely tell when they're not. It's slightly heavy, but sturdy.
Love this mount. Doesn't take up space on the handle bar yet can be fitted high or low out front. I like it lower so my focus is better on the Garmin.
Quality stem light weight 7 series aluminum mount is very sturdy nice keeping everything inline with light and Garmin out front
using it on my cervelo aspero gravel bike, integrated system is awesome no issues. will fit most size bike computers.i dont understand the complaints of these people it is a well made and thought off product if you buy the k-edge mounts it is similarly priced!if u have a ZIPP stem get this!
Replaced the previous cheap mount with this Zipp mount. I wanted quality and security for my Garmin 1030 and I got it! There�s a saying, �you get what you pay for�. So far I�m very pleased and would highly recommend.
Cheers
Keeps carbon bar from getting scratched with bolt on bar mount.
Solid construction
Keeps my handlebars clean and looks nicer than having separate mount arms and clamps
