Great, thanks for the info!
I have a tv mounted to the wall at about 1.3m high. When on the bike, my head is above the top of it. While riding, I still feel like I’m looking ‘up’ and I wish that the tv was down toward my front wheel. It has gotten to the point where I might rearrange the pain cave so I can have a dedicated screen exactly where I want it.

Based on my earlier comment, I decided to fix matters in the last few hours. I abandoned the ‘1 tv fits all’ approach and reworked the setup. Fortunately there was a spare 43” tv and a wall mount laying about. I mounted the tv to the wall and the built some shims to hold it at the proper angle.
Just did a quick test ride and I couldn’t be happier. Thanks for the inspiration!

Tons.bike stand is nice, if you cannot fix the display to the wall.
I use a motorized stand so that the TV can be adjusted even mid-ride if desired. I can the move it as well if my wife wants it on the treadmill

To the extent that anyone cares, I built a station:
All that’s left to do is find a place to mount it on the wall.

This is great. Thanks for the idea. I can 3D print the mounts and not have to pay a bunch for them.
I want that! HOT!
Dammit I am getting old…
Nice flooring @Gwydion

If it makes you feel better I’m concerned Gwydion’s bucket of scrap wood was disposed of in the renovations.

Rest assured, I still have it for some vague project that I will never get around to actually doing.
You’re welcome to have it if you want!

I wanted metal so I could use magnets as I needed (e.g., the Sram charger has small magnets KrazyGlue’d onto the corners). Honestly, if you paid shipping and are in the US, I’ll send you the second board (because everything on Amazon comes in pairs).

Now that is nice. I have a table I set things on, but never thought to print garmin mounts. Off to find an STL …

No fan in your new setup?
Third (and possibly final) upgrade to the pain cave. Added gym tile flooring throughout and a rowing machine. Also upgraded the bike along the way. Still love staring at my giant TV which is usually Zwift or a race.

Eagle eyes! Just wasn’t in that photo, it’s usually there and tbh need to get a stronger one
At some point over the summer I came across a user page who had created hundreds of cycling-related files. I thought I favorited it…but it appears I didn’t.
The other problem I had to solve with my setup was being able to charge the Varia. I used this (up angle) and it fits perfectly. The other solution is using a standoff when mounting the piece that holds the devices.
Edit: I think it was here.
Wow. There are some very niche items on that list. Almost enough to convert me to peg board user.
I wen with this model because it doesn’t have any overhangs.
Thanks
