I've never seen it done before. I just did a quick google search and saw a bunch of tri bikes that adopted this but first time seeing it for me.

Interesting.

I caved in and bought the bar fly mount for my Garmin 500. Stupid expensive, but it is nice and looks much better than the rubber band mount.

Way more aero not having the Garmin out front. If you get the angle wrong you can lose downforce on the front wheel with the stock mount.:rolleyes:

In addition to the Barfly and the newly available K-Edge Garmin mount, Quarq will be jumping on the bandwagon soon:
