just pondering one, and wondering how best to mount it, mate says handlebar is a no no due to distortion/shake at speed etc

plus I cant see any mounts anywhere for 35mm diameter bars

id quite happily have one on my helmet as the gopro weighs less almost half infact than my helmet light so shouldn't notice it anymore than that

don't really want those strappy type ones, is there one that will fit like a exposure mount for their helmet lights? its on a poc trabec

cheers

I have the chest mount and wear that as well as a hydration pack. I don't notice I'm wearing it most the time. Had to play around with angles but overall I'm very impressed. I recently bought a mount for the seatpost too but not tried it yet. I'm not a fan of helmet mounts where i ride due to low branches.

Cheers bud

yeh few people have told me the chest mount is maybe the way forward plus I always wear a hydration camelback which sounds like it will help stop movement too

I'll have a look at some footage on YouTube

Did you buy the official go pro chest mount?

Yeah i got the official chesty mount. Feels solid and had a large chest plate for support and comfort.

Roll bar mount will work on 35mm bars.
