Boardman cycle computer difficult to remove from mount

[Custom24]

Pretty much what the title says. I have a Chris Boardman 22 function cycle computer (the current one) and when I get to work, it is a pain to get it off the mount. Has anyone had the same problem?

At the back of the handlebar mount is a little plastic tab ... push that down and push the computer forwards at the same time, it should come away easy

Yep, doing that. Requires more than a reasonable amount of force.

If it's a new item then things will be a little tight at first until it's been on and off a number of times, it will slacken off ... I'd rather have mine have a bit of an effort to remove as I know it'll be fitted securely while our riding and not fall off

thanks. it's been off probably 10 times and although slightly easier than when new, still quite tight. I was thinking of getting the fitting kit for my other bike, but I was hoping it would be a bit easier to transfer than this.
