how is the helmet mount?

I installed the helmet mount and it is solid. I've never used it, though, because the handlebar mount works just fine. It's the same clip on both the handlebar or the helmet mount. I discovered early on that you must be CAREFUL about clipping the light onto the mount. I was careless, and the light unexpectedly flew off its mount and landed by the side of the road. It seemed solid, but a few miles of bumpy riding shook the light loose. If care is taken when clipping the light on, it's OK. Several months later with MANY miles ridden with the NiteRider Lumina 700 USB clipped on, there has not been a repeat of the unplanned release... I installed the helmet mount and it is solid.

This helmet mount is great. There are two adjustable straps with locking adjusters. The mount has a 3/16" thick somewhat hard foam pad on the bottom. The mount is also adjustable up and down by a splined pivot with a bolt that you tighten to lock it into place. Your light slides off the mount by pressing down on the quick release tab and slides on clicking securely into place.

You can mount the camera to any helmet, the problem might be the water. Most mounting pads don't hold up to good when exposed to water. This is not an asap specific issue. I always use a little safety leash.

BTW if you use mount accessories, make sure its warm when first mount and wait 24 for a good bound, i use mine skydiving, and also dirt biking, i feel dirt biking and the fall ripped the camera off the side of my helmet, btw it not as bulky as go pro

I used the zip ties to mount it. It's removable (if you cut the ties). But I always carry a couple spare ties in a jersey pocket. And the mirror work very well -- better than any helmet-mount or handlebar-mount mirror I've ever used.

The 3mm mount has a little curve in it, however I would by an spare just in case you don't position it correctly the 1st time like I did on my helmet. Once you move it, it no longer sticks to well. Good side mount tho!!

I have a Scorpion EXO 500 and the Sena SMH10D-11. The headset fits out of the box. Installation took maybe 30 minutes, mostly due to me being particular with wire management. Where the cradle routes behind the cheekpad, the cheekpad is no longer completely flush against the shell - but it is minor and does not affect either helmet or headset performance. One actual issue is that the speaker pockets on my helmet seem to be rather shallow, so with the speakers installed on a properly snug fitting helmet there there is no extra space around my ears at all. I frequently have to make a few adjustments when putting on my helmet in order to prevent or correct my ears folding, which will become very painful if left over time. Your mileage may vary.

Hi,I have this helmet and i love it. I've never felt the visor obstruct my view. I don't see how it could if you are looking forward. It doesn't fall on your face.

Of course you can wear this helmet. I would imagine you could mount what you need on it. The sizing mechanism makes comfort and fitting a breeze.

Once you're familiar with the mount (attached it once or twice), swapping it between helmets is really easy and takes less than five minutes. I have all 4 style helmets, full, modular flip face, 3/4, and half helmet. I've never used this unit on the half helmet ( I thought the mic might look a little goofy ), but I did see that I could put the speakers into the "Y" formed by the chin strap where it comes down around the ears. I know the new Sena's have a removable mic, or don't have one at all, but it's flexible and would ride along the helmets edge anyway. I thought my open face helmet for summer is what I believe is called the 3/4. Anyway, the mount is a simple clamp unit, not permanent, and really easy to switch out. Hope this helps.

Hey There I would say Helmet only, If you want a head mount you will want something comfy,If you have a curved Helmet buy this one, It has a lot of options, :) For the money its good.

Yes that's right - it's attached to the side of the helmet with a Velcro / adhesive patch. I installed it in my wife's modular helmet and it's been quite secure. Was worried at first but it's done very well.

Like I said in my review it depends. If you're wearing a bike helmet then yes,a side mount doesn't really week because the helmet tips to the side. The headband strap works okay. It's noticeable but doesn't slip. I'd you're putting ur oh a motorcycle helmet you won't feel it at all.

The Carlo Scala Rider Q1 Teamset has hook and loop velcro so that you can attach anywhere on the outside or inside of helmet. It's not a good way to attach it. My husband used one of the clamping screws to mount it to the helmet base. And that works great!!

The mirror and mounting assembly will survive a hard drop. It is constructed from a premium grade acetal copolymer material (see Loc-Line® website). In my experience, it might pop at the connection at where the articulated arm meets the helmet mount ball. If that happens just snap it back on. Often I snap it apart at that point to pack in my gear bag. I have weak hands so I

Bud, I really don't know. Mine are on two different vintages Shoei tradition full face helmets. The mount is simple but I don't know your helmet. Sorry.

I have an Advanced Combat Helmet (ACH) with NVG mount. It is a tight fit. I had to trim the foam pad a bit. Works fine.
