varia rearview radar and mount on oval seatpost (specialised venge)

Hi,

I am looking into buy a garmin varia rearview radar, but does it support an oval seatpost like the one installed on a specialised venge? See here for picture: https://www.specialized.com/dk/en/bikes/road/venge-elite/106597.
If possible; could you provide guidance/links to how to do it?

No need for buying it if is not possible to mount.

Best regards

Jacob

I have a 2014 Cannondale Slice Hi Mod that has an aero seatpost and it barely fits with a lot of coaxing and strong fingers. I would venture to say that most would say it doesn't fit the Slice but I was able to get it on (I can't promise there aren't a lot of choice words each time though).

There is always the option to loop two smaller bands together or get other bands from elsewhere so I wouldn't let that be the determining factor.

If it's not the width of the list you're worried about and just the shape, your golden...it fits that.

Thanks a lot! Now I just needs to decide if I stay on my Edge800 (no support for Varia Rearview Radar) or upgrade to a Edge1000 or go for the Varia Rearview Bundle.
A bit frustration to have the one unit not supporting Varia Rearview Radar :p...

I was debating the 1000 or 520 and was frustrated that the 920XT doesn't support VV and Varia Rearview. Ultimately I went with the 520 and am very happy with it.
