Garmin Watch Handlebar Mount

[PappaWatTrap]

Hi Everyone,

I'm looking for the following mount. What has your experience been with it?

I know you can buy it on takealot and Temu but hoping for one laying around in someone's forgotten drawer

It works very well... while you wait for it use a piece of hollow pool noodle cut open🙂

Ah so simple, there are few things as permanent as a "quick fix". Thanks😎

tag someone on the Armature 3D printing thread, maybe you can get someone to print one on the cheap or report on the "I need something you might throw away" thread, lots of helpful people.

You just need to make sure that the sensor is protected. Plastic will scratch it and then it's not all that useful as a smart watch anymore.

I have two that are brand new. Never opened. Will swop each one for a quart of Castle Lite.

Used one of These for years.

 The watch will face scratching etc if you do any dirt 

you need a heart rate strap which i never enjoyed, vs convenience of wrist reading.

Adding a cheap Garmin 130 in extended display mode is the way to go 👌🏻

Now that is an interesting piece of information I did not know about. I luckily have a strap already buuuuut would i then be able to use extended display mode from my Epix to display on the Edge 130? Could be useful if I ever wanted to get the edge again. 

I sold an old forerunner and Edge 530 to be able to afford the epix, wanted to have everything on one device. I love it but now and then on the bike I do miss the edge.

Can confirm Epix is compatible with extended display on Garmin 130.

a couple for sale here on the hub, the one in the box from gauteng is my recommendation
