GoPro mount for non-round handlebars
Can someone recommend a GoPro handlebar mount that's compatible with non-round handlebars? I'm running Zipp bars and the tops are only round where they interface with the stem. The camera I'm using is the new TomTom Bandit, and they include a GoPro-compatible adapter but no bar mount with the basic version.

I've used a bar mount in the past and found it a little less than satisfactory for my main purpose (road safety, reporting dangerous drivers). I have used a helmet mount for years, but want to get away from it. The helmet mount is great for POV, camera sees where you are looking. But I don't like the helmet mount since it can make the helmet less effective, when you really need it (wrecking). GoPro released a new mount that might be better than the bar mount and helmet mount. Anybody try a similar mount while biking? Thoughts? |
That new mount looks promising. I managed to cobble together something for the TomTom, but it's not optimal.

Throw a rigid MTB in the mix and you get lots of vibration. See: https://vimeo.com/132563665 I wish more companies would follow Sony's lead and use a threaded/tripod-style interface. |
I have one of the following mounts coming, so we'll see how it fares.

There are a couple of headset top cap mounts and also some that fit to your stem face plate. I think I've even seen one that combines a headset spacer with a GoPro mount - but I can't find it now and I may be mistaken (there are some Di2 controller box mounts).

K edge and their Ilk, can use the bolts on the front of the stem .
I expect someone has a whole faceplate with a Camera Mount on the front of it. |
