So I've gotten myself an SES Aero Road Bar. But now I've got a dilemma. I've got nowhere to put my front light for my night rides.
Do you guys still use one? Where do you mount it? Is there a Garmin + Front light mount available on the market?

Lezyne makes a bunch of new lights that fit my Enve SES aero bar fine. I'm using last years Power 900XL. It has a flat mounting base but also includes a rubber round adapter for normal handlebars. Anything down to their new 350XL series and up should have you taken care of.
i use a quick release on mine, with a Lupine Piko mounted upside down. works great since its below my Garmin...no glare on my morning rides.
and i mount my batter right side up on my stem.

That is simply unacceptable considering either the aesthetics or ergonomics [emoji28]
Not to mention a friggin hazard trying to look that far back on the cockpit. On the other hand, packaging tape is supremely weight weenie, a sub 1g mount!

Just get a stem that's not so wide and the SRM mount fits fine with the Enve SES Aero Road Bar
But now you all have me thinking that I need to get a new light for night riding.....

Have you ever wondered if there was more to life, other than being really, really, ridiculously good looking?
Had this bar with a Zipp SL Sprint stem that has a wide clamp and so nothing else was going to fit on the round clamp area of the Enve bar. But I still could mount a light, computer AND a GoPro up front, with none of this taping to the top tube stuff. How? Easy.
For the light, get a light with a rubber strap mount, like this one: http://www.cygolite.com/product/dash-460-usb/. Mount it over the bars near the stem. You can also use something like this one https://www.serfas.com/products/view/668/ and mount it to a fork leg or even in front of your head tube but it's not a lot of light - more to help be seen.
As for your computer mount, use a stem bolt mount. Enve makes one, Fetha makes one, but I used the combo mount from Recmounts that allowed me to mount an outfront computer but also had a GoPro mount below so I could include a camera if I liked. So you have several options, and some are quite sleek.

It's a SRM not a Garmin and my bars are the 40cm version. I have 4 different stems sitting on my desk and none of them were narrow enough to accommodate the srm mount. It was also 540am when I did that as I needed to go on a ride and do zone specific intervals. Posted that for a few laughs, not a long term solution.

Looks really good! Do you think that mount would work with an Enve stem?
