Geoffrey Carter (Buttercup) Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 What do you want to mount it to? I use this official mount to attach to my roll bar. There are stockists in the UK. https://gopro.com/support/articles/video-tutorial-roll-bar-mount I also have one of these which I wear under a wooly hat. http://shop.gopro.com/EMEA/mounts/head-strap-plus-quickclip/ACHOM-001.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhett Turner - Black Country AO Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 I've got a tip tie style mount from Amazon and it's been perfect. Easy to get on and off and holds in place really well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onliest Smeg David Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 I use mainly combination of Manfroto Clamp and 492 Ball Socket with GpPro tripod adapter which I find versatile and quick to mount or remove. Can be mounted on Windscreen pillar... In detail... I do use the standard Roll Bar mount sometimes, but it's definitely not as secure/rigid. And I find that the bolt head twist in the 'open' side of the mount. I also use different 'bolts' than original, as can be seen (blue) in pictures, which are much easier to tighten. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin Parker (Red Spider) - Yorkshire AO Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Here's mine, a length of aluminium angle bolted to the screen pillar with bike mount that came with the camera fastened to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew O Byrne White - Ireland AO Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 If you're looking for something you could stick to the bodywork, I was surfing a couple of weeks ago and was very impressed with the amount of abuse the sticky mounts designed for that could take. Hey come with an extra tether bit too for piece of mind. The brand I got was goliton or something similar. They're on Amazon pretty cheap.

Onliest Smeg David Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Yep - the stick on mounts are very durable. I had one on a ski for 3 weeks skiing without any signs of coming adrift, despite a few wipe outs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
