FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this replacement insert?

The primary purpose is to act as a sacrificial component. It is designed to break upon significant impact, thereby protecting your valuable Garmin cycling computer from damage.

What type of Garmin computers is this insert compatible with?

This insert is compatible with Garmin computers that feature the standard quarter-turn style mounting system.

Can I use this insert if my original mount insert is not broken?

This insert is intended as a replacement for a broken or damaged insert, typically due to impact or for warranty service. It is not designed as an upgrade for a functional insert.

How do I know if I need to replace the insert?

You should replace the insert if it has broken, cracked, or shows visible signs of damage after an impact. If your Garmin device falls off or feels loose, the insert may have failed and needs inspection.

What material is the insert made from?

The insert is made from a co-polymer material, chosen for its balance of strength for normal use and its ability to break predictably under significant force.

Does this product come with a K-Edge mount?

No, this product is solely a replacement insert kit for existing K-Edge Garmin mounts. The mount itself is not included.

Where can I get a replacement if this insert breaks?

This insert is intended for warranty use. If it breaks due to an impact, it should be replaced. Contact K-Edge or your retailer for warranty replacement options.

Troubleshooting

Insert does not fit securely into the mount.

Ensure you are using the correct K-Edge mount model and that no debris is present in the mount recess. Verify you have the correct K-Edge KEGINSERT model.

Garmin computer feels loose after installing the new insert.

Re-check that the insert is fully seated and locked into the mount. Make sure the quarter-turn tabs on your Garmin device are not damaged.

Insert broke during normal installation.

This is uncommon. Ensure you are not applying excessive force or cross-threading. Contact K-Edge support if you suspect a manufacturing defect.

  • Ensures continued use of your K-Edge mount after an incident.
  • Simple and direct replacement process.

Cons

  • Intended for warranty use only, implying it's a part that should be replaced after failure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

This K-Edge Co-polymer insert is exclusively designed for K-Edge Garmin mounts that utilize a quarter-turn computer interface. Ensure your Garmin device also uses this standard quarter-turn locking mechanism. It is a direct replacement part for the existing insert.

Setup:

  1. Carefully remove the damaged or old insert from your K-Edge Garmin mount.
  2. Align the new K-Edge Co-polymer insert with the mount body.
  3. Gently press the insert into place until it is securely seated. You may hear or feel a click as it locks into position.
  4. Ensure the insert is flush and stable within the mount before reattaching your Garmin device.

Care:

This insert is designed to be a sacrificial part and is not intended for routine cleaning or maintenance. If the insert becomes dirty, wipe it with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or solvents. Its primary function is protective, and care should focus on ensuring it is intact after any significant impact. If it shows signs of damage or has broken, it should be replaced.
