Hi all. I recently upgraded to a Tarmac with a D shaped seat post. I’m an avid Varia radar user, anyone found a good tidy mounting solution for the D shaped posts? Thanks

Anyone found a bolt on solution for a d- shaped seat post? I have the mount below for my round seat post and love how rock solid it is. My medium sized saddle bag attaches under the seat and to the seat post so there is no real estate for a mount there. I’ve also found that attaching the Varia to…
