i wanted something to mount my varia as high as possible behind the saddle, not on the seat post, not hanging down any further than necessary. version 1.0 is working pretty well! print quality isn't what one would get from shapeways, nor is my quick spray paint job, but once i've got it perfected i'll order a nice black one professionally printed.

Speaking of which, here is a mount for the Giant TL200. I don't see much Giant accessories here on the Eastern half of the US, but they appear very popular in the Asian and Australian markets.

i decided i wanted to get my phone mounted lower on my bars, but without the phone being completely "out front" the way a bike computer often is. the phone is just a little too big in the long axis for that. this new version of the roval alpinist / quad lock adapter is about as low as the stack can get, i think. the clunkiness as always is the large size of the quad lock hardware itself, but once the phone is on, it's pretty sleek. rock solid, a couple long rides on bad pavement and it's not going anywhere. i wouldn't do it, but you could definitely pick the bike up from it. 
finishing is a little rough on this prototype, i'll probably send out to have a nicer one printed professionally.
