How secure is the handlebar mount?

It is held on by 2 zip-ties so how secure depends on how tight you get them. The computer itself locks into the handlebar mount via a 1/8 turn locking mechanism. I find the mounting system quite adequate for the situation.

Hi, I used small black zip ties to secure it to my bike. I am extremely happy with this cycle computer, but there is a learning curve for sure.R,Travis Reep

It's actually a useful little gadget to stabalize the bike by holding the handlebar. Unfortunately, the main clamp has a plastic piece that is not strong enough to hold the bike firmly. Until they fix that, I would look elsewhere

It comes with a stem mount. I use mine a lot it is very secure on the handlebars.

We've had ours on the bike since December, it's pretty secure. I don't believe it will tilt or fly off.

Not in the traditional sense. You can get the handlebar pole section down but that's as far as you can go and even that you wouldn't want to do too many times as if that piece loses its' ability to tighten correctly your steering will be greatly impacted.

Yes... It just detaches from the hardware attached to the handlebars. Just use one of the bike cable locks if you are concerned.Butch

The ring to mount is very small. I could not put on handlebars or anywhere else on my racer or touring bike. I just carry with me. It does give me confidence although I will try to out pedal the beasties if possible.

Not with the mount as it comes with the bell. It is made for a narrow handlebar. You might be able to mount it with extended screws.

Another option is to drill a small hole in it and attach a string that is long enough to reach the handlebars. That way you won't forget and drive off without it.

The bag comes with a unique clip attachment that has a wide range of bar diameters it will fit. It's a bit annoying to mount this but once on makes putting the actual bag on/off a breeze. I'd recommend something a little tacky to wrap around the handlebar as it tends to slip a bit otherwise. P.S. the fit is based on the bar tube diameter, not its length...hope this helps.

The handlebar mount comes with bushing inserts that go from 1" down to 3/4". The battery hookup is universal. So as long as you have some free space along your handlebar, I would see no problem.

It is sturdy for sure, the problem is wether the clamp will make a good grip to your handlebars. I have it on my mountain bike and never really had a problem, though sometimes I just have to lift it a bit. Hope this helps

No, unfortunately it won't. I had to mount it to another mount that fits on a thicker handlebar.

A clip to the handlebar would probably be too loose and movable. It has a very secure mount with rubber pads, and yes it is tightened with a screw which has a large wing for ease of use without tools. However, the device that the clip holds can be removed easily by squeezing the clip handles to open it.

I have mine mounted on a bicycle with that same kind of stem and handlebar clamp. You should have no problems.

It's very easy to mount on the handlebars. The mount contains inserts to help with a secure fit. Depending on the setting, the light is almost painfully bright indoors. Any light designed to provide illumination while you're biking is more than sufficient for indoor uses.

Hi Salvatore, thanks for the question. I recommend getting a proper handlebar mount for the gopro. The gorilla pod cannot grab the handlebar or bike part securely enough.
