TedTheAtheist Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 https://cycliq.com I'm not sure how we'd attach it.. but it looks super useful. Has anyone tried them yet? Or have something similar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eucinsea Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Pretty nice. I got lucky and found this mount I 3D printed and works perfectly on my V8 with a yi 4k actioncam or gopro https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3454222 I do not know if I can make it work on the 16x when it gets here though.

Jon Stern Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Just stick a flat or curved GoPro QR base on to your EUC. If you buy a genuine GoPro they come included in the box. GoPro Flat & Curved Stick QR Base Pack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arbolest Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 (edited) Honestly, I've been using a regular old 1080p dashcam... I've had one of these little guys on the front of my wheels for a couple months now and they work great: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07G53NGBJ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 It's small/discreet, it runs off of the USB port on the wheel so it turns on and off automatically, and it's only about $20! It's great knowing that I always have a record of anything that might happen... And its neat getting to see some of the scenery on my rides from the wheel's point of view (tree roots and rocks can look terrifying when you approach them at speed ) Edited August 1, 2019 by Arbolest 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking about doing the same on my KS 18 XL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually fabricated a waterproof mount for the camera, a headlight, and a GPS speedometer that is held on the front of the wheel with some good Velcro for easy detachment if I don't want it on for some reason. But honestly, the mount that comes with the dash cam (made to attach it to a windshield) should work more than well enough if you just stick it to a flat-ish surface at the front of the wheel. It has a ball-and-socket mount for easy positioning and comes with good mounting tape and everything! The one thing I would definitely suggest is grabbing a shorter USB cable for it. The one I linked to uses a mini USB connector, but if you want a different one, make sure to check out what it uses for power before you buy!

I have a KS18XL so I am not sure how much flat real estate there would be for mounting something 😕I would probably have to just buy the camera and make it work but for $20 it’s worth it. If it did not work on my EUC I could just use it on the car or e bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just made a big post on my custom mount in another thread! Edited September 4, 2019 by Arbolest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone tried them yet? Or have something similar? I bought one without reading the reviews. Oops. I wish I had. They're not good overall. UPDATE: The company never got back to me about returning this unopened, and I had no takers on selling it. So I used it. For me, it's about security. I'm really happy with it solely for that purpose thus far. In this pic, the vehicle (and others behind him - guys working together) was parked in the bike lane. It's a protected lane so he could've parked in the lane for parked vehicles. Instead, I was forced out of the safety area mid-ride.
