First time I see a garmin mounted "inside" the bar 👌🏻 I like that idea 💡 always see the guys with it mounted out front, so it's one of the first things to take an impact. 

Not sure about that, if you do crash, your bar will take some wild swings which means the Garmin mount will connect with the frame or steer tube and likely snap.

I do agree with your thought if the out front mounting being vulnerable as well which is why I mount mine on the stem ... if to short you can get the top caps with mount.

Just my 2c worth

Agree, I had my Garmin mounted there too, until I fell, snapped it right off

My 530 case broke, or then the mounting brackets, from a very minor incident, mounted out front.

 

I am back to mounting the Garmin on the stem.
