       Garmin forerunner Bike Mount
    Comment:
       This is a simple, easy to install accessory for holding my Garmin 305 in a convenient location during my rides. You just attach it with the two zip ties to the handlebar and put on your Garmin just like putting on your wrist

    Summary:
       Works As Advertised
    Comment:
       Pretty straight forward - that's how I'd describe this product. It is a flexible piece of rubber that wraps around your bicycle handlebars. I use it on a road bike and it fits nicely. I put it on the cross member of the handlebars. You can fasten it with the enclosed ties, but I just close the wrist band on my Forerunner 305 around it to hold it in place. No issues, no complications, no complexity!

    Summary:
       Handy piece of equipment
    Comment:
       The item is great for using with a bike, but there are three negatives on it.
    1) The round opening is too large for my steeringwheel. Garmin should have included a conversion piece for smaller diameter handlebars.
    2) Agree with other reviewer that the straps are not needed, plus I have two bikes I switch between, and I rather do not buy two of these.
    3) The wristband goes around easily, but I have a quick release velcro wristband and to keep it snug (likely because of my smaller diameter steering wheel), I have to overlap a bit which makes it difficult to attach.

    All that said, still get it. It is soo much easier to use on the bike then on your wrist, I just love it!!

       Simple, effective
    Comment:
       Works as advertised to hold your forerunner on your handlebars. Can be a little clunky to do the watch strap up is you have brake cables etc criss-crossing along your handlebars. Easier to use your forerunner than on your wrist, but not so handy if you need quick transition from bike to running or similar.

    Summary:
       Just what I needed
    Comment:
       I used to wear my Forerunner on my wrist as I biked but it got real annoying checking my distance and pace and having to lift my hand off the handlebar to look. Now I can just look down and the watch NEVER moves. It works perfectly.
