Bringing back an old subject that dosent get addressed here too often.
Hoping some of the newer members can offer up some useful info.
I recently picked up a Garmin Rino 110 and 120, and am looking for some handlebar mounts that will stand up to the abuse of fast rough trail rides.
I have found a couple modles on ebay, and am wondering if anyone here has any experience with them.
The most common one seems to be this one, but it seems to me that it may not take the abuse, and it also looks like it may not fit very well on the handlebars, with all the other switches/levers already on the bars....

The other on I have found is this one. It looks like it will have better cleaance from all the switchs/levers, but i'm not too sure it would stay solid and not loosen up while flying down a series of whoops, or blasting down a rough and rocky trail....

So anyway,
I'm just wondering if anyone here has tried either one of these mounts, (or can suggest a different type), that they have been happy with.
Thanks for any replies,
Ron
