Digital camera reviews of GARMIN 010-10446-00 Handlebar Mounting Bracket
Digital camera Review: Works fine, but not really needed
Summary: 5 Stars
My review of this is based on my rating for the Forerunner 201 unit itself. This is just the bracket, and it works fine. However, you don't really need it if you don't mind simply wearing the 201 on your wrist. The one caveat is that it is, of course, easier to see the unit when you are riding if it is mounted on the bike versus strapped to your wrist.
My recommendation is that if you are going to use the 201 for both running and biking, don't buy this bracket because you can simply wear the 201, plus then you don't have to deal with trying to remove the wristband or making a tight squeeze fit into the bike bracket. But, if you are buying the 201 only for biking, this may be useful because then you could simply ditch the wrist strap and keep this mounted to the bike at all times.
Digital camera Review: Works great on my motorscooter
Summary: 5 Stars
I know this is intended for bicycle use, but I strapped it on the bars of my DR650 dualsport bike. Fits the Foretrex 201 just fine.
Works great, and I loop the foretrex armband around the bars Just in Case. I do have fancier GPSr and fancier mounts but this is the one I prefer on the bike.
Digital camera Review: Works great!
Summary: 5 Stars
After having my GPS come loose (barrel pin failure) on more than one occasion I decided to give this a try.
I've now used this on a 2 month MTB tour of Nepal and Tibet. Held my Forerunner 301 securely on hundreds of miles of washboard, technical singletrack, etc. Also withstood countless grabby children and curious bystanders in numerous villages.
You do NOT have to remove the wrist band to use it with the mount. I love the reassuring "snap" when it locks into the mount, and the wrist strap functions as a safety back up - although it never came loose from the mount on me. Convenient release allows you to remove it quickly and easily. My only very minor complaint is you have to remove the GPS from the mount to charge it.
It fit perfectly on my 1" (25.6mm) diameter bars.
Like it so much I just ordered the "oversize" mount for my motorcycle.
Digital camera Review: Works perfect with the Forerunner 301
Summary: 5 Stars
I was worried the 301's might not fit, but I was wrong. Works great.
'nuff said.
Digital camera Review: Works well with my Forerunner 301
Summary: 5 Stars
Works just as advertised for my Forerunner 301, making it convenient to access while riding.
