   Why not use foam pipe insulation?, June 17, 2004

   By A Customer

   This review is from: GARMIN 010-10446-00 Handlebar Mounting Bracket (Accessory)

   Another reviewer mentioned removing pins and not being able to easily switch between running and biking. I bought a piece of foam pipe insulation from a hardware store for $2. I cut off a little piece and wrapped it around my handlebar (no tape). Then I wrap the forerunner wriststrap around the pipe insulator and velcro is closed. Now my garmin is on my handlebars in plain view. When I run, I take it off the pipe insulator and where it around my wrist.
   Seems a lot simpler than this “bike mount bracket”

   All you need to do is get some foam, cut a small rectangle that will fit like a bracelet around the handlebar of your bike, and put your garmin forerunner on the bike as you would your arm, over the foam. works great, much cheaper.

   Unless you are too poor and/or cheap and/or frugal, I strongly recommend it.
   Other reviewers are correct that it is next to impossible to remove the
   velcro watch band BUT there is no need to do it. The mount works perfectly
   with the band attached to the ForeRunner.
   Why the mount as opposed to pipe insulation? You get the exact viewing
   angle all the time w/o the need to experiment and/or reposition.
   BTW, I use it on a Minoura extension.
