GARMIN AND MAGENE ARMS MUST BE PURCHASED SEPARATELY!
(see compatible options)
NOTE: No mount arm is needed for GoPro, similarly attached devices, or the Garmin eRTL615, but a safety tether is recommended.
This is our newest 2nd Generation direct mount option for Specialized Stealth Pro saddles. Our mount is attached to the Shimano saddles with threaded inserts in the bottom rear of the saddle (see pictures). It is designed to securely position a Garmin Varia, Magene radar, or camera for optimal visibility and operation.

INTENDED USE
 |
This mount is intended for use with bicycles used on paved or relatively smooth unpaved surfaces. Our mounts can be used with electric bikes up to class 3. ASTM International standard F2043-13. |
2nd Generation Improvements
| Based on user feedback, and when combined with the TC mount arm, the mount point has been moved back towards the saddle and lowered by 25 mm (1 in). This increases the leg over clearance and makes it less likely to catch the mount when mounting and dismounting the bike. |  |
|---|
 |
Based on community feedback, we replaced the mounting screws with Nyloc screws with a built in threadlocker. We also replaced the neck nut with a locknut. All screws are now heavier cap head screws making them much harder to strip and easier to tighten. These changes eliminate the need for messy threadlockers while preventing screw loosening. |
|---|
| The TC Garmin arm or Magene arm paired with the Shimano mount base moves the center of gravity below the rotational point. This means the Varia applies less torque on the quarter-turn insert and will be less likely to rotate under heavy impacts. |  |

Saddle Compatibility
To check if your saddle is compatible, look on the bottom of the saddle for two threaded holes as shown in the picture. The holes might have screws in them already or a plastic plate covering them. If they are there, this direct mount will work with your saddle. If not, look at the Anatra clamp on option instead.

BUP Shark Tooth (ST)
What makes the Shark Tooth design different?
- ST Mounts use toothed connections to prevent slipping.
- Connections are very rugged and more than 3x thicker than GoPro type connections.
- Very easy to assemble using the provided thread locking screws.
- Eliminates the variations in GoPro like slot fitments for a more secure connection.
|---- Space ----|
- Our mounts move the device down and rearward to increase spacing.
- Bup mount positioning creates more leg over clearance for easier mounts and dismounts.
- Leaves more than enough room for most small/medium and even some large bags.
- Optional extensions can provide even more space when needed!
Safety is not an afterthought
- Safety band prevents twist out release from impacts, aggressive riding, opportunistic theft, and accidents.
- Safety bands will not interfere with, or mute, radar range or operation.
- New elastic safety tethers are thin and exactly the same as the Garmin OEM computer tether.
- Heavy duty safety tethers are provided with kits for heavier devices such as a GoPro or Garmin Varia RCT715.
Shark Tooth Grip
One huge benefit of the new Shark tooth design is preventing device rotation. Standard action camera connectors typically suffer from rotation under loading which requires overtightening the screw to overcome the rotation.
Overtightening can eventually lead to damage or failure.
ST mounts use just one thread locking screw for easy assembly.
Just tighten normally and it is locked in place. Easy peasy.
Have Your Cake And Eat It Too
Radar and a GOOD camera? Yes please! Extra room for big saddle bags? Yes please! Pick one or the other? Nope! Bup horizontal mount arms provide a huge amount of space below the saddle AND the option to run two devices at once!
Garmin
Compatibility
Besides being able to use all major brands of radars, our ST mount arms can be converted from one brand's radar to another. Switching between Garmin Varia and Magene require nothing more than unscrewing the insert and moving a few plugs. Conversion from Garmin or Magene to Bryton (or vice versa) is almost as easy with an extra insert (sold separately).
Magene
Quality
Our mounts bases and arms are 3D printed with state-of the-art bioplastic materials using the most technologically advanced machines in the world. Even small injection molded items, such as the quarter-turn inserts, are top-of-the-line and as good or better than the OEM part.

What are these products made out of?
Our mounts are made from a new state-of-the-art material called bio-plastic that is derived from plants instead of petroleum. It is stronger than traditional plastic and able to withstand repeated impacts better. Some components are made from injection molded plastic or steel.
Where are your products made?
We source all raw materials, manufacture the primary components, assemble, and package the products in the United States. Some accessory items or minor components are imported (noted in the product details).
Do you ship to my country?
We currently ship within the U.S., most U.S. territories, Canada, United Kingdom, and Australia. Please see the international shipping page for up-to-date shipping locations and more details.
