awesme Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 Hi guys ok how do you do this, I got the handle bar mount, onto which I then have to add the little arm that twist the 3 fingers 90 degrees to match up with the camera, problem, on rough road the camera either swivels forward or backward, other than me tightening de m03r in to the point where I battle to undo it again. so what does everyone else do? - Def makes sense to us a splice type of join G

Alouette3 Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 Use a screw driver to tighten the thumb nuts, does a much better job, just a but of an irritation. Pants Boy 1
Newboy Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 Look for the K-Edge mount for cams. +1. There were some on CWC the other day. Got mine from CRC. Best option by a mile.
awesme Posted January 1, 2013 Author Posted January 1, 2013 I dropped Wayne an email, see they have the Garmin mounts still shown, nothing about the GoPro. Just moved the handle bar mount from the bars to the Stem, and moved the Garmin onto the bars, But really like the look of the k-edge, allows me to leave the the garmin on the Stem, Would be nice if I can fit both of them on a k-edge next to each other, in front of the bares. G +1. There were some on CWC the other day. Got mine from CRC. Best option by a mile.
awesme Posted January 1, 2013 Author Posted January 1, 2013 It's easy to tighten it to de m03r and gone, but then if I want to move it I'm stuffed. G Use a screw driver to tighten the thumb nuts, does a much better job, just a but of an irritation.

Dr Snuggles Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 Piece of tube around the bar . Problem solved ! helps with some vibration too.
awesme Posted January 1, 2013 Author Posted January 1, 2013 Problem is not with the handle bar moving, its with the GoPro housing moving on the arm joining the housing with the Handle bar mount. got a good suggestion from the GoPro forum, take some sanding paper and rough the fingers up a bit, will cause a better grip on each other compared to 2 very smooth surfaces.

MTB_Roadie Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 I tighten it with a screw driver, works very well. You can just use your multitool to tighten it....and for the tube things, I done the same and works the bomb.
Stretch Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 I tightened the Moer out of it with a screwdriver and the thing still managed to work itself loose on a bumpy ride. The mount mechanism is a weakness in my opinion
