If it's the same thing, it won't work with the Nob. That is only about the width of my thumb at best and I don't think you can cinch it down far enough to hold.

Plus, the nob doesn't hold that tight. (my little bike light is almost too heavy for it so I got a helmet mounted bike light instead)

As for bars mounted above or below the handlebars it's not so much about that but about the support for your arms and your hand placement.

And yes, my T2's are on a road bike. I'm not on a tri bike and I didn't have to shift around my saddle. I shift back just a hair when I ride in the bars, but nothing I can't live with for now.

ETA: They are on the bike in my avatar with a water bottle mounted between them.
Hmmm...I may have to look at both models.

I did discover that there are 2 sizes of those nobs--one is only an inch wide and one is about 2.5". I would probably go with the longer one (or maybe one of each to have different attachment spots for things...I actually keep both the quick release base on my bike for race days, as well as the wrist adapter, since that's usually what I use).
