Customer Reviews:
Stop – read this before you buy this accessory
Stop- This item is a replacement for the quick release bike mounting kit. It does NOT include the new wrist band for the watch. If you want full quick release capabilities you need to buy the KIT, not the replacement bracket. Spend the extra $10,,,it’s worth it
This actually works
I like this idea. Now my Forerunner 305 can be used both on the bike and (with the wrist adaptor I also purchased) when I run. I bought three – one for the road-bike, one for the mountain bike, and one for the tri-bike. The Garmin can handle and records separate for all three bikes.
I jury-rigged it so it sits on the stem and it works well – I crossed the “zippies” versus through the slots where you would normally mount it on the bar. I like it better on the stem.
ONLY ONE CAUTION – if you do what I did and stem-mount it, make sure that the metal watch stems sit tight inside the end clips when you put it on the bike or you’ll “launch” the garmin (like I did the first time I tried it) when you hit a bump in the road or a seam in the pavement. The garmin is a tough litle bugger and took the “hit” though.
Buy it.
Good but there is a catch
Works well for what it is however, there is a catch… You have to take the band off the watch to clip it in. Like another reviewer stated (wish I would have listed) its actually easier to find a big piece of foam to cut to size and wrap around your handlebar. This is what I ended up doing and its working great.
