Trek Bike Mount for Garmin
« on: December 30, 2009, 06:49:13 PM »

Hey all,

Here's a great mount for the casual GPS user. I was looking for a way to mount a Garmin for the occasional times I may want to use a GPS. My problem is that I did not want a mount on the bars the rest of the time it was not being used. I also did not want to risk scratching the chrome taking a metal bracket on and off. I found a great mount that was designed for mountain bike use that pretty much goes on and off like a big zip tie. I ordered it even though the specs say it was for tube diameters that were slightly smaller than my handlebar diameter. Well I can tell you it was worth the risk - it fit and holds perfectly. The best part it is does not mar the bars at all and it comes off easily. It is mostly plastic and may not hold up under years of abuse, but at $16 I would just replace it at the first sign of potential failure.

Here's a sample pic of it attached to a mountain bike handlebar and a link to the amazon page where I got it. The black and orange color looks great on the FLSTSE as well.

Looks simple enough, like to see a pic with it on the bike.
