Thanks for the review! Do I see it correctly that with the single bolt clamp design you'll have to disassemble the handlebar and slide them on from the ends to install? Or can the clamps be forced open wide enough to go over the handlebar?

Installation is pretty straightforward, you don't need to dissemble anything on your handlebars. With the bolts removed from each clamp arm you can just stretch it over the handlebars and then attach the front mount.

@@TheSweetCyclists Thank you very much! That's such an important detail that I didn't find anywhere else and it's also not really apparent from the product pictures.

Excellent review! Any idea what is the width between the dual-sided mount & the width of each single mount? Considering for aero handlebar series e.g Pro Vibe Aero etc..

I'm not sure which dimension your asking about. The distance between outer edge of the clamps is 2.5" while the mounts are approximately 2.75" forward. It mounts pretty close to the stem so it should fit within the round portion of aero bars. Otherwise Topeak does cell center mounts for one-piece aero bar/stems.

is it possible to change the angle of the mount itself, so that the gps device is tilted, too?

You could angle the entire bracket on your handlebar to achieve that. If you use a bottom GoPro mount, that would let you adjust your light / camera to be parallel with the ground again.

Nice review! I have a question: Do the clamps are made of plastic or aluminium?

@TheSweetCyclists

Thanks. The clamps are plastic with a one bolt design, so you have to flex them over your handlebars to install or remove them. The main part of the mount is metal though and unless you put heavier lights off the front it's a sturdy mount.

i just ordered a element bolt v2, and have a cateye light, will I be able to use both with this mount ? I love that i don't have to integrate it into the stem, but it looks as if it is.

Yes. The UTF comes with a Wahoo adapter you can put on top. You'll need a GoPro to Cateye adapter to put the Cateye light on the bottom though - something like this www.cateyeamerica.com/cateye-gopro-compatible-headlight-bracket/5445340/

Interesting question. Yes, I think you can either swap the Garmin / GoPro inserts from top to bottom or just flip the entire front section as it looks pretty symmetric. The great thing about Garmin / GoPro is that you can easily get adapters between them so you could leave the Garmin insert on top for your GPS computers and then use a Garmin to GoPro adapter if you wanted to put on a GoPro camera.

@@TheSweetCyclists thanks, never thought of the garmin to gopro adapter thing.

So you would also need to buy a Garmin/GoPro mount ($15-20) to attach to the light in order to have the light below and computer on top? Total $60-70 Is that right ? Thanks

No, you have that right out of the box. The UTF mount includes: 1x GoPro, 1x Garmin/ Wahoo (rotate it to switch between), and 1x Topeak Ridecase adapter. If you want Garmin on top and bottom you can easily buy $5 GoPro to Garmin adapters to accomplish that.

In testing out the run times I'm seeing times of anywhere from 1.25 hrs to 7 hrs longer run times as claimed in the different modes. So thanks for helping me make the decision to get the rn 1200!
