The Chesty work great if you are sitting or when you are standing, but not both. When I stand up when it is adjusted for sitting, it looks down too much. Now I use the stick on top of the helmet mount. Just remember when you look around turn your head smoothly, otherwise you get twitchy pans. I have had a couple good crashes and haven't knocked it off the helmet.

Holy smokes!

I never got to used the 3D set up. So I have no info on the performance of the equipment. The bracket is held on by the one bolt.

Definitely some creative mounts guys. I've been busy trying different ones myself. Here's a video I shot using the handlebar mount. I like this one the best as far as the view of the road. But the tradeoff is a slight vibration. During this video most of the roads were smooth so it isn't very noticeable.


I like the Chesty mount the best as far as smooth video but it isn't very practical for daily use because I ride with a backpack. So I've been trying different ways to mount it to my backpack and have yet to find the right solution. I'm going to try a strap with the mount between the two shoulder straps later this week. So I'll probably follow-up with another video after trying that.

I use the chest mount for the mountain bike. I like seeing the handle bars and whats going on. I tried the helmet for MTB but i like the chest better

I have it mounted on the side of the MX helmet for the dirt.

I have it mounted on top of the Street helemt for road riding the KLR650

Saturday i rode 28 miles on the trails in downtown pittsburgh and tried the time lapse. Set it to take a pic every 10 seconds and had it mounted on the handlebars.
