Would it be useful and practical to mount an AeroPod to my velomobile?
I have the Assioma powermeter pedals.
The only place where I think it's easy to mount ahead of the vehicle will be where the headlamp is.
There is a threaded rod that goes across, see 2nd pic.
Not sure what kind of bracket could work.
And also I wonder if it's too close to the ground.
Aeropod on velomobile?
Re: Aeropod on velomobile?
That is a crazy-looking bike!
This could work...you will likely have to fashion a longer pitot tube. Perhaps, fit a soda straw over AeroPod tube!
You will also need to figure out a way to securely attach AeroPod to the bolt in your cockpit. We don't have a plug-and-play solution for this, but remember that AeroPod fits in a standard Go Pro mount...so there is possibly something out there that will work.
Let us know what you figure out!

Re: Aeropod on velomobile?
Thank you. I need to figure how the headlight mounts and try to come up with an extension to the mount that permits the Aeropod to peek outside the shell..
Re: Aeropod on velomobile?
I found someone used a gopro mount at the front of their velomobile. The aeropod can attack directly to this? (Bit clunky though...)
Re: Aeropod on velomobile?
If your Velomobile shell is really stiff...that is, it doesn't flex when pushed, that might work!

Okay, I have purchased some gopro mounts. Will this do for the aeropod? Please advise.
The carbon-fiber shell here is very rigid.

Use one GoPro only. The multiple-extension GoPro looks like it will flex.

I’ve ordered the aeropod and two kinds of ANT+ speed sensors just to make sure it can work.
