The cables on my bike run outside the frame tube, it's a Jamis Ventura sport 2013. Can the mount be attached without interfering with the cables?

Just went to the garage to check the cycle to make sure. Yes it will work. I use the mirror on my touring cycle which has cables on the outside. The mirror is awesome but not as much with loaded panniers. I ride a lot on the road and sometimes take the the touring bike instead of the carbon racer just because of the mirror.

Just thinking. My cable run on the outside but start at on the lower tube with enough room at the very top of the tube to place the mirror without interfering with the cables. Hope yours is the same. If you need a picture let me know.

Depends what kind of cable. If it is a USB cable then it is pretty much impossible without cutting one of the ends off, threading it and then re-soldering it together again. I just zip-tied my cable to the outside of the frame. Still looks ok and works great.

I don't remember having any trouble with attaching cable. May want to check assembly. The bike went together rather easily for me.

we have 2 road bikes....the mounts move. I couldn't give a positive yes...we have trek 720

There will be enough clearance for the tires (I have 700c tires, which are larger than 26" and it works fine). Without seeing your bike I can't say if the mounting will work without some modifications. I had the braze-ons needed, so mine bolted on with no problems.

You need to get a separate piece that mounts to the bike forming the upper bar. Then, you can mount this to a carrier rack.

it depends on the mounting point you use. I returned mine due to damage it caused to the frame. Very poor design.

I use it with a large mountain bike, and the resistance selector cable isn't long enough to reach the handlebars where it is intended to mount.

You would have to make a bracket or use maybe a u bolt with some rubber padding. I like most just mounted it under the handle bars in the frame. Bolted and zip tied. Rides well

Yes, there should not be a problem, when you buy the cable that is what you really have to look out for, make sure you buy Road bike break cable, the head is different for MTB and road. Make sure the bike is step up to brake not to lock up the wheels. Modulation not skidding is what you want in your breaks... Best of Luck, they have a neat feature on the front side, a small pin slides in and out to bring the lever a bit closer to the handlebar. Have fun and keep riding

I don't know your specific bike. You should need nothing else to mount them to your bike. I personally would recommend getting mounting brackets. This would assure bags and bike be protected from rubbing against each other.

I sometimes go for a run in the park after riding my bike. I use a cable lock fed thru my tire rim to secure the bike and rack to it. Doing the same to just the rack should work for your purposes. I hope this info helps, good luck! :)

Unfortunately, you have to run cords/cables alongside the mount. The center piece is not wide enough to allow for cords/cables.

Yes, you could loop a cable around the bar, you would probably want to also loop the cable through the diamond shape hole in the wall mounted bracket so if someone was going to steal the bike they would have to rip the whole unit out of the wall.

So long as your new bars are not radically thick or thin there shouldnt be problem. Might be a good idea to get new cables and cable sheaths too, and make sure you know what your doing... some beginner bike modders get this part muddled and then inevitably end up at their bike shop trying to get help.

Maybe. This is the generic handlebar mount (I use it with by garmin 60csx and RAM cradle). The RAM system has many GPS specific mounts, which have this diamond shaped mount as their connector. As far as wiring that's 100% up to you, I'd suggest wiring it in such a way that you turn off the GPS when you turn off the key, but it's largely a personal preference (you can probably leave your gps turned on for days without draining your motorcycle battery to empty).

Yes, but it may require some ingenuity. I'm not sure the cable supplied with the unit will be long enough, if you want the display unit on the handlebars. But, when I accidentally broke the cable on mine, I was able to splice it easily enough. It's a light weight two conductor cable. If you are at all handy, and the cable isn't long enough, you could simply cut it and splice in an extra length of some appropriate light weight two conductor cable.
