Customer Review: Excellent bicycle mount for Garmin eTrex GPS!! Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this for my mountain bike's handlebar, since I always wanted to bring my old Garmin eTrex Legend (the blue one) GPS with me, and never found a good way to do it - until now.
The handlebar mount uses two different rubber inserts (one thin, one thick). My bike's handlebar needed the thick one to keep the mount tight and secure.
The back battery plate fits right on the Garmin eTrex just like the it should, and slides right into the handlebar mount and clicks. Press the tab at the top to release it and take the Garmin eTrex GPS off, to prevent theft.
They say it's "great for motorcycles and ATV's", but I wouldn't do it. A bicycle tops out at 30-35 mph (unless your Lance Armstrong). I wouldn't even think of using this product on my Honda Shadow motorcycle. The wind at 70 mph on the interstate would rip the thing right off the motorcycle handlebar!!
Anyway... This is solid plastic BICYCLE handlebar mount, and that's what it is meant for. I have a Schwinn mountain bike and have gone both normal road riding and trail riding with the Garmin eTrex Legend GPS on the handlebar, and it has never slipped, rattled, shook, or broke off. But keep in mind, I don't go crazy on my mountain bike... I don't jump off rock cliffs or do anything insane, so I don't know how the bicycle mount would hold up to some really hard core mountain biking.
