Torhans Aero Z with Garmin ontop

Triathlon Forum
1

I have received my Argon18 117+Tri bike and along with the bike was the Torhans Aero Z.
In my aerobar setup I like to have the Garmin computer ontop a bottle.
I have tried different solution to mount my Garmin ontop the Aero Z but without luck.

Therefor I wonder if anyone have or know a solution to have the garmin ontop of the Torhans Aero Z.

Thanks!

There is no formal way to do it, but of course many are trying, with a different degree of success. These guys are doing it with the velcro (in Chinese). Seems to work for them.

Personally I gave up and moved to Speedfill Standard or a rear mounted bottle, depending on the distance.

Thanks for the link and answer.
Funny about the chinese which tries a solution that I have already tries.
Didn’t get it to work as I wanted.

Perhaps the only solution is to create something as 3d and the printer it.

I have been looking into this pretty extensively as of recent. I think most using the Aero Z set-up go with a more further forward mount option (multiple available).

In the end I decided to just stick with my speed speedfil cage. I tried with Profile Design HC last year, but the computer was behind the water bottle and I could not see it without looking down. I believe this year they remedied this and moved the garmin mount to the front. May be worth looking into.

I have a both speedfil setup and I used a Profile design aero hc on my shiv last year with the garmin in front.
But now I wante dto see if I could come up with something new :slight_smile:

Thanks for the ideas.

I chain two or three of the rubber bands that hold a flat Garmin bar mount, and run them around the AeroZ, behind the bottle door. Works great, been super stable for well over a year.

Quarter-turn mount with elastic bands should do it.

How do you like the garmin on top…any negative issues? I’m considering the Speedfil. Thanks,

Dave,

Works great for me and I am pretty stubborn about holding a number on the bike. Stays right in my line of vision at all times, and from the tunnel data I have seen, the speedfil cage with the bottle turned outward is more aero than nothing at all.
