This is an adapter for use with various bicycle mounts for computers to allow you to use a Quad Lock mounting system in its place. Manufacturers like K-Edge make wonderful machined mounts, and adapting them to Quad Lock mounts makes them more versatile. 

Needed parts:
Quad Lock 360 Head: https://www.quadlockcase.com/products/quad-lock-360-head-lever
(you can also use the Short Lever Head or the Weatherproof Wireless Charging Head)

Hardware: 
M5 nut, no more than 3.8mm thick. I tend to use these thin nuts for builds that I cannot use heat-set nuts on: https://www.mcmaster.com/90326A231/
M3 x 0.5, flathead bolts, 10mm long: https://www.mcmaster.com/92125A130/

You may be able to get away with 8mm for these, because of leverage I wanted more engagement of threads. Shown is a Garmin Max XL: https://k-edge.com/shop/computer-mounts/garmin-max-xl-mount/

Note, that because of the size of some phones, it is recommended to use a mount that is even with the bar to clear it with larger phones. The adjustable stem mount may be a better option: https://k-edge.com/shop/mtb/adjustable-garmin-stem-mount/

Model should print flat side down with support to fill in the hex cavity. I used 20% infill; its not a part with high leverage.
