Personally I think this mount looks good with the garmin 1030, however I would love a shorter mount for the mid sized head units so they don't look so far out Infront.

I honestly like the idea of well made products that will last a lifetime. I've had a few broken plastic mounts and I wish we'd stop making throwaway plastic items. That said, the lack of angle adjustment means it doesn't have the kind of future proof design to ensure it will be useful in a few years, or if you have a stem whose bolts aren't completely level.

Love Silca products... Not entirely worth the full buck however they have never failed me. So maybe they are. I ended up getting 2 mounts from Raceware direct which are fairly similar and only got 2 because of that aero factor. One Garmin / GoPro combo and One Wahoo Roam Aero / GoPro Combo. Absolutely love em. No way near as well finished but also not a bank buster.

Great honest & thorough review as always. I don't know what to think of old Josh at Silca although I appreciate his bike nerdiness and decent quality chain lube. Their ti bottle cages are another premium priced item that of course don't come with mounting hardware (WTF?). I own the equally overpriced Pista Plus floor pump and while it's a nice bit of kit, does it really inflate my tires that much better than my old cheap Nashbar pump? Glad you didn't have to spend your personal income on this mount.

I clocked out the moment you mentioned the price. It's just a mount, for Pete's sake. That said, I did watch till the end, the compatibility and ease of installation are impressive. GoPro mount location is a plus as far as my own preferences are concerned. I would consider it for half the price.

I am interested in this mount as I have had a series of failures with handlebar-mount types and cheap stem-bolt mounts. The only problem-free mount I have had so far is Bontrager's blender mounts. But I also have a Giant bike and can't buy Bontrager stem for it (OD2), so I have no other choice. What puts me off, however, is the way Chisela looks where it meets its host stem. I should expect a much better fitment for the price. As Shane said, a standard version (9-30mm) should be a better fit for a Giant bike; my Giant stem is exactly 30mm C to C (same as Shane's stem), and the wide version looks just too wide. Silca nevertheless recommends the wide version just in case, but I don't want to end up looking like Shane's bike in this video after having burnt $125. lol But I gotta thank Shane for this excellent review that helped me getting a better idea on how this mount works and looks like.

The price is ok considering it's printed titanium, which takes more time than most think it will. But I can't wrap myself around WHY titanium. Carbon or even graphite injected plastic is 1/5th of the price and just "as cool". 34g for this. 31g for the Canyon Aero Garmin mount (plastic). Oh well...it's a niche :)

Like most Silca products over priced. On their website it states $183 this might be converted to AUD. If you are a concerned about bike weight a F3 mount is great, you will have money left over in your pocket and fits the stem better than the Silca. Minimal instructions with a $183 product, really now.
