With the additional weight of the light plus the Garmin, I was concerned about excessive flex, but again, the KOM does a decent job of keeping everything stable. Both my GPS and front light are relatively light, and I don't own a Garmin 1030 or heavier, compatible light to really push the KOM's limits, but with its overbuilt construction and grippy shims, I expect it's up to the task. KOM Cycling guarantees the CM06 for life, with the usual caveats, so it seems to have faith in it too. Value

Always consider the size of your handlebars when searching for mounts that clamp on them. If the handlebars are large, it is possible that the mount will not be big enough to clamp down in a way that keeps the camera steady. Mounting Mechanism This mount is one-size-fits-all and adjustable for most body sizes. Furthermore, this mount captures a near-perfect first-person perspective of your bike rides. Although it’s placed a bit lower than eye level, the chest mount offers an immersive view of your exhilarating rides.Lifetime Guarantee against material or manufacture defects. Damages due to abuse or crashing excluded. The main criticism I have about the GoPro Hand + Wrist Strap is its relatively high price point compared to other options on today’s list. Furthermore, wearing this mount for extended periods of time can be uncomfortable since your GoPro hangs off your wrist. Nonetheless, this is an incredibly fun GoPro bike mount I highly recommend to all bikers. There’s actually two different GoPro mounts offered by KOM. The bundle tested and shown here is the CM06 computer mount, which is different than their other mounts in that it has the quarter-turn tabs built into the bottom of it. What’s the benefit? That depends on the shot you want…if we’re being honest, chest and helmet cams provide a bit better perspective for both riding and following someone. But with the latest action cameras offering incredibly good stabilization and wide angles, getting good follow-cam footage from the handlebar is entirely possible.

K-EDGE mounts co-polymer plastic computer inserts are designed to hold the corresponding computer ONLY and break away in a crash to protect the computer body. The Forevercam Handlebar Mount is an extremely durable full metal GoPro handlebar mount. This mount is made with aluminum alloy, which provides a lightweight yet durable build. In addition, it features an off-center camera mount with a 360-degree rotatable head. It’s crucial to discuss what factors make the best GoPro bike mount. Since there are so many options, knowing what to look for will help you differentiate each bike mount. Each biker has different preferences and needs, so the best GoPro bike mount for one individual might not be the same for another. In terms of build quality, this mount is made with waterproof materials. For this reason, you don’t need to worry about getting it covered in rain or snow. The 360-degree rotational capabilities let you easily adjust your camera to any position. It’s also one-size-fits-all and a perfect fit for any size adult wrist. In terms of setup, it takes a few seconds to clamp the mount to your handlebars. It fits any round tube from 0.87 to 1.38 inches. However, you can also attach the mount to reflective mirrors with a diameter ranging from 0.27 to 0.63 inches.Garmin Compatibility: This Garmin bike mount is compatible with the Garmin Edge Touring & the Garmin Edge 20, Edge 25, Edge 200, Edge 500, Edge 520, Edge 800, Edge 810, Edge 820, & Edge 1000 The GoPro Helmet Mount is the best helmet mount for biking because it’s easy to use and provides an excellent point of view. Since you place it on your helmet, the viewing angle is just a little higher than eye level. Therefore, it offers a beautiful vantage point where you can see the entire scenery and terrain ahead of you. On the downside, the PGYTECH is nearly double the price of the Forevercam Handlebar Mount. For this reason, it might not be the best choice for budget-conscious bikers. I don't own a GoPro, but do have a couple of front lights with the same finned mounting. The removable undermount uses the same quarter-turn fit and release action as the GPS, so once your accessory is fixed to the mount, it can be fitted to the bike in seconds, which is very convenient. For my front light, being able to fit it once, adjust the beam angle, and tighten, knowing that the same angle will be retained for every future use, is a definite bonus, and it makes recharging simple too.
