Bar Fly 1.1 Garmin Cycling Computer Mount Updated – Better, Cheaper

would be cool if this was a standard convention and one could click in a light…

I’m not surprised – I thought I saw a knock-off on the Mountain Equipment Co-Op (MEC) website (mec.ca), but it’s the real deal for $20 Cdn. That said, three reviews already on the MEC website reaks of “astroturfing”, even if I am keen to try it over the triathalon mount I already have & installed.

@Joe Blow:
Pioneers get the arrows 😉

I expected a hinged or two-piece mount…. having to unmount a shifter and unwrap the bars just for this is not worth it…

GP- we designed the Bar Fly with your feedback in mind. Our material (delrin) allows you to open the mount and slip the Bar Fly on, without unwrapping your bars, or taking off the shifter.

Too bad it doesn’t drop the unit down a bit to be more in-line with the bar like some of the other mounts. At least it has a better price point for those that want their gps mounted up high.

I must be the only one that still has an old Edge705 with the sliding attachment. Bar Fly or anyone else know if there is a manufacturer making an out-in-front mount for the older Edge computers?

Don’t the new 810 and 510 come with Garmin’s out-front mounts?

@Zach it won’t be pretty, but you could use one of the Minoura mounts that essentially provide a piece of dummy handlebar out in front of your handlebars and clamp on your existing Garmin mount.
