Took delivery of a new bike at the weekend with a fancy aero integrated bar/stem. Realised my Wahoo (Bolt v2) mount won't fit on the aerofoil shaped bars and I need a mount that can attach via two bolts hidden under the stem.

Had a bit of a look online and there either seems to be cheap ones of dubious quality on Amazon, or the K-Edge one at £50(!).

Wahoo do one for the Bolt v1, not sure if this fits the v2? Topeak appear to do a mount but can't find it in stock anywhere. I like the idea of being able to mount a light underneath using a gopro adaptor though.

Anyone use anything else? Not sure if the search terms I'm using are finding the right things.

Usually the manufacturer of the bike will sell a compatible mount for garmin / wahoo.

haha good shout- didn;t think of that- they do indeed do exactly what I need. Didn't show up on Google searches. It's a "Level 5" bar on a Ribble Ultra. Looks like they do 2 different versions of mounts that will work.

Raceware 3D-printed or the K-Edge ones are the best.

Unless you have an Enve headset, in which case they do their own (which is still made by K-Edge)

Be careful with a 3D printed one, I had one which broke the tabs on the back of my Wahoo, twice! Thankfully Wahoo replaced both of them as I assumed it was a manufacturing fault with the Wahoo (Wahoo have a great warranty and dealt with it quickly with no questions asked, thankfully!)

I do a lot of 3d printing at work so was somewhat sceptical of the 3d printed ones, both from a strength and tolerance point of view. I expect they’re fine but not sure I want want to trust a £250 gps on one.

Ended up ordering the Ribble one anyway though :-)
