I was looking for a good, sturdy, out-front mount. I have 2 bikes with the same stem except one has 4mm mounting screws and one has 5 mm. None of the out-front mounts I looked at use 5mm, even the one on Amazon that specifically states it is for 5mm, it comes configured for 4mm,so I returned it. Then I found this unit. It is well made of CNC machined aluminum, not the "plastic metal" that some are made of. Included in the blister packaging is a replacement mounting screw (in case you drop one and it rolls so far under your workbench you cannot retrieve it), a second device mount that appears to be for a Wahoo, and 2 different size allen wrenches. As you can see from the photo, I mount my phone on top and I bought an accessory to mount my CygoLite headlight. I bought a Garmin mount for the phone that uses a very sticky mounting adhesive. I use a second Garmin specific mount reversed to hold my Garmin over the stem. This setup works well for me since I use RwGPS on my phone for verbal directions and the Garmin for details in a data screen and a map, if I need it. The plastic inserts to mount the unit on a 25.4m bar have a plastic insert to keep it from moving. It may be my bar, but with both inserts the mounting screws were a tad too short to catch the threads so I removed the bottom one and replaced it wit a thin strip of rubber to make the mount secure. I love this setup!
