Profile Design ASC Computer Mount

The Profile Design ASC Computer Mount is created with a specific focus on maximizing your aerodynamic efficiency during both time trials and triathlons. When you are in an aggressive aero position, every detail counts in terms of minimizing wind resistance and optimizing your speed. This mount is constructed from an advanced lightweight nylon material weighing only 24 grams, making it an ideal solution for riders who are highly conscious of their total weight load on the cockpit. The design features a very low and discreet profile, allowing the bike computer to integrate naturally into your existing setup without protruding unnecessarily and creating turbulence. By placing the computer centrally between your extensions, you achieve a more streamlined setup that reduces the total frontal area. One of the greatest functional advantages of this precise placement is that it brings your training data directly into your natural field of vision. In practice, this means you can quickly read your watts, heart rate, or speed without having to move your head or shift your gaze significantly from the road ahead. Being able to maintain a stable head position is essential for maintaining a steady airflow over your back and helmet, ultimately saving you valuable seconds on the course. Additionally, the mount is adjustable, allowing you to fine-tune the screen angle to avoid glare from the sun, further improving functionality under changing light conditions on the road or during competition.

When it comes to compatibility with electronic devices, the Profile Design ASC Computer Mount is primarily developed to work with Garmin's popular bike computers. It comes with direct compatibility for the Garmin 500 and 800 series, ensuring quick and seamless mounting right out of the box without the need for additional parts. For riders who prefer using Wahoo devices, it is still possible to use this mount, but it requires the use of a suitable aftermarket adapter, as the insert holder itself is optimized for Garmin's well-known quarter-turn system by default. However, it is important to be aware of certain physical limitations based on the device's size and your personal riding position. If you use the larger devices in the Garmin 1000 series, you may experience physical contact or interference with your wrists when holding your extensions, which could potentially cause the computer to tilt or shift while riding. Similarly, users of the Garmin 800 series may experience a risk of contact with their forearms, depending on how your extensions are angled. The solid nylon construction ensures that your device stays securely locked even under heavy vibrations from the surface, which is crucial for avoiding the loss of expensive equipment during training. The precise fit ensures that no annoying rattling sounds occur that could disturb your focus when pushing yourself. It is always recommended to test the setup while stationary before heading out on the road to ensure your preferred computer device is correctly positioned relative to your grip and arms.

The Profile Design ASC Computer Mount is not a universal mount, but rather a highly specialized component developed to work in perfect synergy with Profile Design's own ASC 43 and 52 Series aerobar extensions. This specific fit is the very foundation of the superior stability offered by the product, as it grips perfectly around the unique shape of the tube. However, it is extremely important to note that this mount is not compatible with ASC Pro Series extensions, as the tube shapes and mounting points on the Pro models differ from the standard ASC series. By choosing a dedicated mount for your ASC extensions, you achieve a mount that feels like an integrated part of the bike rather than a loose addition. The nylon material used is chosen for its ability to combine extremely low weight with high durability and resistance to the elements. It can withstand UV radiation, heavy rain, and sweat without the material becoming brittle or losing its strength over time. The black finish gives a professional and clean look that fits perfectly with modern triathlon and time trial cockpits, where both aesthetics and technical performance are highly prioritized. The mount is designed to remain stable under all conditions, whether you are riding on smooth asphalt or hitting small potholes. This is crucial for maintaining a stable data reading in high-pressure situations, such as when riding hard intervals or tucked deep in the bars during a competition. By properly integrating your computer into the cockpit design, you reduce clutter and the need for multiple separate mounts, contributing to a more ergonomic and efficient riding position where you can keep full focus on your goals and the road ahead.
