Can anyone recommend a decent out in front mount for a Garmin 200? Dont want to pay £25-30 for the Garmin one as that seems daft.

    I've seen unbranded Sram mounts on Ebay for under £10, can't remember where though. I've got 2 Sram mount going spare having just bought Garmin mounts for my bikes.
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    Superstar components do them for about a tenner. But out of stock at the moment.

    From memory (I have Garmin ans SRAM) the garmin holds the device a shade lower down, more in line with the stem, the SRAM lifts the device a little - basically the garmin protrudes arounf the midde of the bars, the SRAM is flat on top.

    The Garmin has a hex socket bolt inserted from above, the SRAM a Torx bolt from below.

    The SRAM looks cleaner, but the Garmin *May* be a tad more aero (Not that it matters when I am just behind either) and is a little more convenient if I need to adjust it.

    Do you these? I've got two of them and they've been spot on. The only problem, is that you can't remove it without removing the bar tape and shifter too.

    Not quite sure what you are asking. Both my Garmin and SRAM can be removed or replaced without removing tape.
