AERO Top Cap Computer Mount#

Mounts the Garmin Edge MTB centrally via the steerer’s top cap bolt — cleaner integration than a bar mount, positions the computer closer to the rider’s eye line.

Notes#

The Grizl sits above the Grail in Canyon’s range — more adventure-focused, more tire clearance, rack mounts for touring
The mixed GRX/XT drivetrain pairs GRX’s gravel-optimised ergonomics with XT’s wider 10–45T MTB cassette range
