Hello,

I bought a K-Edge computer mount that is supposed to be compatible with the 2021 Trek Emonda bars, but the screw won't screw in. Does this pic of the hole look normal?

Thanks a lot

I searched several images of the bars on Emonda. Seems you may have a stripped or broken bolt in the hole.

Did you buy it used?

My belief as well. But I have decided to stop using integrated bars and stems. I cannot get them to not give me sore arms. Good round aluminum bars and stems are as light or lighter than carbon bars and stems. I have weighed them. Plus carbon bars can rotate in the stem This happened to me twice and I barely managed to not crash, so perhaps you might think of that. Also Hambini said that in fact, that round bars are probably more aero. Him being an aerodynamics engineer probably lends some credence to his opinions.
 
Hmm, that does look a bit off. Have you checked the screw and the hole for any debris that might be preventing it from screwing in? Also, are you sure you're using the correct screw that came with the mount? Sometimes, using the wrong screw can cause issues. If you've checked those things and it's still not working, it might be worth reaching out to K-Edge's customer support for further assistance. They should be able to help you troubleshoot the issue and get your computer mount up and running. Good luck! :)
