There are a couple of issues with this mount. First, the quarter turn mount is loose. There is enough play that the camera jiggles while cycling, more than the image stabilization can compensate for. Second, and probably a lot less of an issue than the first, maybe because cycliq mount is smaller than the Garmin while the Fly6CE is heavier than the Radar, it seems there is a lot of flex when it is mounted.
Thanks for the feedback, I will look to see where I can modify it for the future. I think I can add a bit more material on the backside to make it "less" vibration prone. One question, did you get the FLY6ce in January or February this year? After February I am pretty sure I addressed the loose fitting mount. I still need to look at the rigidity of the overall mount to help minimize vibrations.
