The Garmin Varia radar is probably the best invention for cyclist safety in the last decade. However, its original mount leaves much to be desired: rubber grips that wear out, a clunky aesthetic, and a profile that completely clashes with the lines of your aero seatpost.
At Pedra.bike , we set ourselves a challenge: to turn a safety accessory into a marginal performance improvement .
Total integration: The end of the visual "burden".
We don't design universal mounts. The Pedra mount is designed specifically for each seatpost model . Through 3D scanning, we've achieved a Varia mount that blends seamlessly with the bike, becoming much more integrated and closer to the frame.
The result? A clean aesthetic where the Varia stops being a patch and becomes part of the design of your lightweight and aero bike.
Actual gains: Save up to 2W of power
We know that every detail matters ( tota pedra fa paret ). Although the final aerodynamic improvements are still being defined, our technical estimates point to an improvement of approximately 2% in the overall wind resistance.
Translated into performance figures, this represents a saving of approximately 2 watts compared to the original mount. If you've spent a fortune on an aerodynamic frame and deep-section wheels, don't let a generic plastic mount hold you back.
Invisible security: Hidden integration for AirTag
At Pedra, we take us a step further in terms of usability. We've taken advantage of the internal volume of the design to include a completely hidden compartment for Apple AirTag .
This way, you add an extra layer of anti-theft security without anyone knowing it's there. It's the perfect example of our philosophy: solving small or overlooked problems with solutions that no one else has.
Now available in our store: Garmin Varia Aerodynamic Mount
Built to last
Like the rest of our parts, this stand is manufactured entirely in Spain using technical 3D printing , always seeking ease of use and extreme durability against vibrations.
Do you have a specific seatpost and can't find a mount? If it's not in our catalog, write to us. If you suggest a design, we'll create one for you.
See you next Friday with a new "stone" for our wall!
