It had to happen. Several companies have introduced cycle computer mounts for Garmin computers, including the Bar Fly that we noted last week, as well as the K-Edge, Quarq and 3T. Now Garmin has seen that it is likely just supporting the aftermarket when they could be jumping on that band wagon.
This week the company introduced a new composite material mount that features a hinged mount for easy installation when the insertion point for mounting the computer can be rotated. Thus the Garmin Out Front Mount ($39.99) can be used with road, mountain and even time trial bikes, and it works with all Edge devices. Mount up!
Last week after a ride we put the bikes on the car and packed up. Just as we got rolling, we heard the Garmin Edge cycle computer beep from the trunk. It picked up movement, and was about to track our drive home. Because this stuff happens, TrainingPeaks just started offering the ability to edit data on the web interface. This way you can delete such errors that get uploaded from a tracking device, and concentrate on performance. 
As efforts are made to streamline every last part of a bike something has seemed a bit odd – namely those cycle-computer mounts that sort of ruin the sleek lines and look a bit like a tumor on the handlebars. But last season 3T introduced an integrated steam – fittingly called the Integra. Now comes word that the stem will be used this season by the Team Garmin-Barracuda in this season’s pro cycling races.
