Good to start out with, but.............
I was blessed with getting the Hero 3 black addition for Christmas. I bought the handlebar mount just to get started. All in all it produced great video based mostly off the quality of the Hero 3, but being that I was mountain biking on a single track there was so much reverb from the handlebars that the video is only good to watch with the volume down. Another problem was how much jolting around there was. Basically it being mounted on the bars makes that happen. All in all I am not bummed for the purchased due to being able to use the parts that interact with other mounts to create better angles etc.
Pros: Cheaper, good for getting started, good for using the parts for extending other mounting equipment.
Cons: Vibration due to placement of the bars and the noise that also comes with that.
Would Buy Again: No
Would Recommend: Yes

Yes No Report as InappropriateDecent mount
Decent mount for the GoPro. Allows for many different mounting options on your bike but is still limited in a sense. It does not play well with larger diameter tubes (my handle bars for example, Funn Fatboy).
Pros: Multiple camera mounting options
Cons: Limited mounting to certain size bar diameters.
Would Buy Again: Yes

Yes No Report as InappropriateThis seems to work well, I am glad that I don't have to wear the camera on my helmet or chest. The downside is that it is clunky, I have seen other mounts that are far more compact, however this was much cheaper. The best thing about mounting the camera to the bike is that it follows the terrain with the bike and doesn't change perspective like when you have the camera on your chest and you go from sitting to standing position.
Cons: plastic
