Aero Race Number Holder with Garmin Varia V1.0

The model and print profile have been revised. You can find a newer version here.

This holder combines aerodynamics with safety. It has been specially developed for road and triathlon bikes to securely attach your race number and perfectly integrate your Garmin Varia System (or compatible taillights).

Key Features

• Dual Function: Secure hold for race numbers and integrated Garmin Varia mount.
• Flexible Design: The mounting plate can be glued in straight or at an angle depending on preference or frame geometry.
• Optimized Adhesive System: The model features strategically placed holes on the back of the screw mount as well as on the top and bottom of the insertion slot. This allows for precise dispensing of PLA adhesive or super glue for a durable connection.

Print Instructions & Recommendations

I have prepared two versions for you to achieve the best result for your printer:

1. "Flat" Version (Easy): Quick and uncomplicated to print. The bottom side will have the texture of your print bed (e.g. PEI texture).
2. "Standing" Version (Premium Look): For perfectionists who want an identical surface texture on both sides of the plate.
   • For this, use the separate print profile with already drawn support trees to ensure maximum stability during printing.

Feedback & Support

This is one of the first versions. Should you require adjustments, I welcome constructive criticism in the comments! Feel free to upload photos of your setup.

Assembly Tips:

1. Print the desired parts.
2. Insert the plate into the slot (straight or at an angle).
3. Use the designated holes to drip the adhesive directly onto the contact points. This ensures a clean look without adhesive residue on visible surfaces.
