That's the problem with the chest mount on a road bike. Depending on your hand position, hoods or drops, you have to reposition the camera or you're shooting the ground or sky. Don't get me wrong, the chest mount provides a unique point of view and I like it but like GoPro's plastic handlebar mount, there is lots of shaking going on. Here's an older video I shot using the chest mount. Of course, I edited out all the parts when I had I was shooting the ground and sky but you can get an idea:


One of these days, I'll have to get my arse in gear and post a video with my K-Edge mount.

I don't have a horizontal torso, I'm not pro. I'm regular roadie low between 40 and 30 degrees I would guess (zero being horizontal). But without flipping the camera, the chest mount sure won't work.
