If you use a computer on your bike like a Garmin or Wahoo, you usually get one plastic mount to attach the computer to your bike. They aren’t the most eye-pleasing, and what if you have multiple bikes? One option is to purchase a separate computer mount that looks different and offers more functionality, and better computer placement on the bike. A good option for this is the Chisela Computer Mount from Silca. The Titanium isn’t cheap at $125, whereas you can purchase other cheap mounts for around $20.
The Chisela Garmin/Wahoo mount is 3D printed with Titanium. It works with most Wahoo and Garmin computers except for version 1 of the Wahoo Bolt. There is also a GoPro-style mount on the bottom of the mount that can be used to attach a GoPro or light with a GoPro mount. The GoPro mount is removable if not needed.
The 3D Printed Titanium has a rugged rough finish to it. This may be undesirable by some, but offers a “tough” look and feel to the computer mount.
The mount is available in 7 different options to fit a variety of bar and stem mounts:
- Standard (9-30mm)
- Wide (23-40mm)
- Black Inc
- S-Works/Fizik Face Mount
- Madone Aero
- Integrated Two Bolt/Blendr
- Vision Metron 5D/6D

The standard and wide mount attach through the front stem bolts. Extended bolts and hardware are included and attached with no issues for me. I found the angle and distance from the stem worked well for me. It’s worth noting other than a slight side-to-side adjustment there are no angle or front/back adjustments.
Warranty
Silca offers a 25-year hard parts guarantee for any failure from the part for that timeframe. Also, there is a 1-year no-fault coverage with no questions asked. If you break it, regardless of the reason Silca will replace it.
Conclusion
Overall, I prefer the mount over the out of the box mount that was included with my Wahoo Element. I like the symmetrical look the mount offers. The mount feels very secure both on the bike and the computer attachment. If you have any questions feel free to leave a comment.
