Customer Review: Perfect if you want to use your GPS on your bicycle
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been using this bracket to hold my 60Cx to my handlebars and I have been extremely happy with the purchase. I use my bike as my primary source of transportation and it has been easy to get around thanks to the street maps that I loaded onto the GPS. As other reviewers have noted, you definitely want to also tie the GPS to your handlebars. I use the wrist strap that came with the GPS. My bike fell over one day and the GPS popped right out of the bracket and was left dangling above the ground. If it had not been tied, it easily would have impacted the ground.Customer Review: Awful Mount
Summary: 1 Stars
I have ridden with this for about 4 months and today it broke completely. About a month ago, the top circle broke and the GPS came flying off the bike a couple of times. After that I strapped it down with elastics, which worked well enough. Today the entire top piece came off and it is now unusable. If you ride on any roads with potholes (almost every road here in Eastern Mass) then I would recommend finding a different mount. If you do buy this mount, make sure to secure the GPS to it with elastics or something similar.Customer Review: Don't Bother

If you have a high end road bike, don't bother to purchase this bike mount. It won't fit on the handle bars. I tried this mount on a couple of road bikes from different manufacturers and they all had the same issue - this Garmin bike mount was too small for the handle bars. The adjustements for bar size are very limited.
There is an "oversized" mount you can buy from Garmin that will work on the larger bars. However you have to buy this kit AND the oversized mount. What was Garmin thinking?
Customer Review: Garmin 60 bike mount
Summary: 2 Stars
Be careful with this mount. Use the lanyard as a backup. GPS can and will come loose from bracket. I also use 2 Livestrong bracelets to hold gps in place. The mount broke in two last weekend an inch & 1/2 from top. Just ordered a replacement. I hope Garmin has improved design. This bracket was purchased 9 months ago. It has aproximately 2000 miles of road bike use on it. The Garmin 60 CS is one tough unit. It has hit the pavement more than once and only has a few scatches.Customer Review: Works great
Summary: 5 Stars
It took only a minute or two to install on my handlebar. After about 10 rides I'm very pleased with it. The GPS stays solidly in the mount, and the mount is rigidly attached to the handlebar. Just to be on the safe side though, I loop the carrying strap over the handlebars as an added measure. Using a GPS with a bike is terrific. You'll get all the funtionality of a cycling computer plus the addition of knowing where you are, and knowing where any services are that you may need.
