Eldron Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Dear GoPro legends, Does anyone know of an alternative to the GoPro Roll Bar mount? I have the Roll Bar mount but it is just cumbersome, needlessly complicated and tends to come loose a lot... Any advice or alternatives? Thanks! Eldron.
V12man Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 U bolt plus some engineering work using a bit of angle iron, and a normal mount. Actually if it's just coming undone because of vibration, then some blue locktite on the threads works well.
Tankman Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 K-Edge! No silly plastic mounts that crack, no stupid add ins that turn the camera in the right direction and having the camera a mile from the bar, shaking its ass off. Steady, sturdy and solid! http://www.acecosportgroup.com/shop/k-edge-go-big-go-pro-hero-camera-mount.html Thank me later. P.S I can order what you need... if you dont find it locally.
Eldron Posted June 23, 2014 Author Posted June 23, 2014 I love you Tankman! The GO BIG Handlebar Mount is EXACTLY what I was looking for.

Eldron Posted June 23, 2014 Author Posted June 23, 2014 Handlebars are not roll bars.... My bad - I should have added "handle" to the post... V12man 1
Warrick Kernes Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Check this one our which uses a screw-tight hose pipe clamp and solid mount with a ball head for rotation. http://www.actiongea...-roll-bar-mount - Only R249. It comes with 2 clamps, one for a roll bar and one for a handlebar.http://www.actiongear.co.za/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/800x/9df78eab33525d08d6e5fb8d27136e95/o/r/ortec_roll_bar_mount.jpg
Jigghead Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 K-Edge! No silly plastic mounts that crack, no stupid add ins that turn the camera in the right direction and having the camera a mile from the bar, shaking its ass off. Steady, sturdy and solid! http://www.acecospor...mera-mount.html Thank me later. P.S I can order what you need... if you dont find it locally. I bought these some time ago and did a stupid thing by managing to strip the thread when trying to mount the camera for the first time. It has now rendered the whole thing useless and scrap metal. I think the reason it broke could have been the difficulty I had trying to mount the unit with a small amount of rubber between the mount and the bars to stop and scratching/movement and I think that the two part were skew and this is how the thread was stripped. Anyone know of a clam that works similar to a seat post clamp that does not use a screw but rather a clamp?
Sasquatch Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 I bought a K-edge for both my handlebar and seat post, one of the best products out there, they work like a bomb.
