it can be mounted on the stem.. there is totally nothing wrong with that sort of setup...

for me personally.. i like to mount the computers further out... this way i just glance down a bit and i can see the data... rather than having to look almost vertically downwards to see, press and try to meddle with the unit... with units as big as edge... text size should not be a problem that bit further away from the handlebar...

actually there are some misconceptions on arm warmers.. much that i see are actually meant for winter.. not that they don't work in hot sun to prevent charring of your skin.. but they tend not to dissipate heat as good as the ones meant for summer use... you can still soak them in cold water just to get them to cool your arms down...

defeet brand is one of my favorite...

http://www.defeet.com/60294/i1364638/73341...mSkins-ICE.html

friend helped me bought one thermal base layer from UK... but wrong size.. not cheap and had to give it to another friend who can wear it...

defeet is known for their sweat wicking and quick drying socks... but they are very known for their base layers both thermal and winter in the pro peloton as well...

there is a distributor here, creative mill.. but, last i asked they only brought in socks...

only thing i can say is... live with it... this is a fact you have to accept along with cycling...as long as your mother hasn't think that you are an african... it is still acceptable...
