It works and it's convenient
  
This review is from: GARMIN 010-10446-00 Handlebar Mounting Bracket (Accessory)
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.

you don't need it
This review is from: GARMIN 010-10446-00 Handlebar Mounting Bracket (Accessory)
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.

Why not use foam pipe insulation?
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"

Double Duty
I owned the Garmin 301 I bought this mount for for 5 years before I got the mount. I used it for running for all that time.

Much easier to use
I didn't try the pipe insulation 'mount', so it may work well too, but this mount fits perfectly and has held my Foretrex securely.

Used with ForeRunner 301 without removing wrist strap
I read all the other reviews before buying this, and it seemed the 2 common themes were that it was unnecessary and that it didn't work without removing the wrist strap.

Works great on my motorscooter
I know this is intended for bicycle use, but I strapped it on the bars of my DR650 dualsport bike. Fits the Foretrex 201 just fine.

Flawless
The bicycle mount works perfectly. I was worried that the GPS might bounce out of it on rough terrain, but I have put it to the test and it passed.
by Harry R.

Does not work with fore runner 101 despite being "better together"
I have to give this item one star.

While I am sure that it is a very good product it does not work with the fore runner 101 that I bought it for.
by GROG

A great addition
If yu ride, as well as run, this is a great addition. Easy to mount and use. Get a whole new use for your Garmin. No need for a dedicated bike computer.
