Since getting a new bike with 35mm bars my Barfly Garmin mount is new redundant. Can anyone recommend a suitable replacement? Must sit over the top cap area.

Thanks

Or even better, get about 7 "over the top cap" mounts for the same price

Issue with "Over the top cap" type is more effort to re align bars after a crash. Garmin is probably more vulnerable in a crash as it's not on a mount that will just flex or move.

Is there an issue with the standard mounts that are held in place with rubber rings if you have room to fit it on the stem ?

Yeah, I've seen the newer barfly but I was hoping for a cheaper option. I think I only paid £16 for the 3.0 but the 4.0 is double!
