Review on πŸ”Ž Enhanced Garmin Forerunner 920XT Quick Release Kit: Streamline Your Search by Ameer Kobblewood

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good product except for one big flaw.

This is a great product except for one thing. Garmin, in their boundless wisdom, took this product's quarter turn mount 90 degrees away from Edge bike computers. So if your handlebar mount doesn't allow you to rotate the mount, this mount will place your watch ON THE SIDE OF THE BIKE. The "ears" on this mount are up and down, compared to left and right on all of Garmin's other quarter turn products. It's just a silly deviation from Garmin's own standard. I have used it with the XLAB Torpedo Kompact which allows the mounting plate to be rotated so I had no problems. My Zipp Quickview TT mount won't work with it because the mounting plate won't rotate. The good news is that this is a VERY reliable triathlon watch mounting kit. I very deliberately had to remove the dial from the strap in order to hang it on the bike. He wouldn't have fallen by accident. Another member also asked me if I mind the slightly increased height. It didn't bother me at all when running. I had a bit of a problem putting my wetsuit sleeve on my watch.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Good but not great
