Thanks. Stem mounted as close as possible to the steerer cap for the least amount of balance/feel/steering issues. I bought a mount from Orms. Will take a pic tonight to show you guys. It can mount on the stem, seatpost, fork lowers...and with some effort on my helmet. Although my vid cam will be too heavy for that. After seeing the vid I realized I'll need some shock absorbing foam to take away the worst vibrations and trail clutter. <?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

 

The thing is I have a decent 3CCD (broadcasting quality) vid cam which is small enough to ride around with on my stem. This way I'll be able to take decent looking vids.

 

Will post some Tokai/Eden/Paarl riding footage as soon as I have.
