pitchblende Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 even slight bumps will knock the unit off the mount. you have to add rubber bands, and it still will slide around. Garmin should have kept the arrangement where the unit screwed into the mount, like the V. Quote Link to comment
Alpha Geo Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 I have the handlebar mount for the 60CS and it works great. I mountain bike with my 60CS mounted to my TREK ZX7000 and I haven't lost it yet ! What can I say ? Quote Link to comment
+wickedsprint Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 Are you not screwing the grommet into the back of the 60? I thought that was required for most of their mounts. Quote Link to comment

Yes (the one that came with the mount). Per the instructions, I match up the grommet to the hole in the front part of the mount, and then click the unit into place. There is no screw that directly connects the unit to the bracket (like the GPS V mount). Am I missing something? I am amazed that it stays on with a mountain bike. Mine is a road bike going over pretty minor bumbs. Quote Link to comment
+Phone guy Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 I have my 60cs mounted on my dualsport motorcycle and it works great. Very solid mount. Are you having trouble with the bracket that mounts to the handlebar? Maybe your handlebar is not big enough. If thats the case, get some good electrical tape and wrap the bar where you want the mount. There are two rubber spacers that come with the mount a thin one and a thick one. I believe you should only use one. Quote Link to comment
