The Edge 1050 is Garmin's biggest GPS cycling computer, rendering many existing third-party out-front mounts unusable beause the computer fouls the stem faceplate or handlebar.
Many bike computer manufacturers have introduced rolling changes to their lines, slightly lengthening mounts to accommodate the larger computers.
But, rather than force users to buy an all-new mount, K-Edge has developed a neat slot-in adaptor that offsets the quarter-turn housing forward far enough to fit the PalmPilot-sized unit.
Slotting in place of a typical insert, the K-Edge Offset spacer increases the stack height of the mount slightly, but not enough to be noticeable while mounted.
Costing £20/$19.99, the mount is compatible with most of K-Edge's mounts (the brand has a full compatibility list on its site).
Although it's not listed officially, it may be compatible with other third-party computer mounts using K-Edge-sized inserts.
What about the Elemnt Ace?
K-Edge says it won't make an offset spacer for the even larger Wahoo Elemnt Ace because of the unit's weight
Without question, the biggest bike computer on the market, the Elemnt Ace's length renders most existing mounts unusable.
K-Edge suggested new mounts long enough to accommodate the computer will be released later in the spring.
