The 515 is so useful. Can’t imagine riding without out anymore. Extra piece of mind for safety and awareness is key and priceless.
Yes exactly!!
Same here, after the first ride with the varia i wondered why I hesitate so long before purchasing it ! I feel much cooler riding with it
I took the easier and cheaper way to fix the issue. Used the strap on my bag along with a Garmin mount. Just loop a Garmin band underneath and connect both sides. Used an adhesive furniture pad along with Velcro on the opposite end to hold it in place more securely. Saw this idea on another video. Works great.
Thanks for sharing!!
This type of mount has been known to break (over tightening the extension, etc.) so I'd also suggest applying a stick-on tether mount and tether connected to the seat rail for added security.
10 000 km and haven't break yet on me!
Brilliant solution! Thx for this video. It solved my Varia mounting problem.
Nice, I was about to return mine because I couldn't mount it otherwise. Going to try this out 👍
Salut from Canada!
This worked like a charm. Thanks for summarizing all the information and providing the amazon links here. I ended up using an even longer extension. Time will tell if the mount holds up, but fits like a charm so far and I added a tether string just in case.
Awesome!! Glad this could help you out
Super montage ! J’ai découvert cette lampe il y a quelques jours. Elle parait vraiment impressionnante.
Merci!! Oui en effet c'est incroyable!
That little GoPro extender... I've been looking for one! Thanks.
The extension is a nice idea. I have been using mine directly on the saddle rails, so there is no room to turn the unit on; the power button is too snug with the saddle underside. I have been dreading the inevitable "drop" of this expensive unit, with so much on/off.
I can’t find your links to the various products you used in your video on a seat mount hack.
Je vais m'acheter le varia juste pour faire ça haha, awesome video ;)
Tu va capoter!!! Check cette vidéo la pour des trucs avec le varia : ruclips.net/video/sQSkAaf1WsQ/видео.html
Great video. The bag is so simple. Can you share the site ou mode?
Thanks! It's a road runner bag, the tool tote
Where are the links?
super video Charles .. mais ça change quoi de savoir qu'il y a un véhicule en arrière de nous ... plein de mes chum se servent juste de la lumière et ont de activer la radar car cest trop tannant ? l'important est d’être vue ... rien contre toi la la mon charles tes super cool
Salut JP, merci! Regarde ce vidéo, tu va comprendre toute les situations où nous pouvons tirer un grand avantage du radar! Pour ma part, j'adore!! ruclips.net/video/sQSkAaf1WsQ/видео.html
It works fine horizontally, or upside, down by the way.
Good to know!
Just bought this unit, and placed it at saddle bag
Nice work! Looking forward to the varia review!
Thanks man!!
Anyone know how to mount this to a 125 scooter? Will bre adding a Honda rear rack and top box to it, if that helps?
Will this mount fit Garmin Varia rvr 315?
should work yes!!
Hi Charles. I have the varia (without the light, RVR 315) and as I am pairing it with an AfterShokz bone conduction headphone to get the sound of alerts when cars are coming : it is just PERFECT combo. do not need to disturb my cycling friends with alerts neither need to stare at my Bryton cycling computer. What do you think?
Damn I did not though of that! Great idea indeed to have the alert in your ears!!
@@CharlesOuimet by the way, I live in Verdun, Montreal. Hopefully I can go for a ride with you this summer if you are not pushing to hard on the pedals.
@@bretonbedouin catch me at the CGV! Or on the Facebook group "les cyclists 9 à 5 du grand Montréal"
You've put everything except the details of the product that was used for extending the adapter and the saddle holder for the Garmin Varia.
Yes, it's a gopro extension
2:32 You said you were going to provide a link to the gopro extender, can you provide it? I have the rest, just can't find this part.
there you go!

@@CharlesOuimet Thanks, just ordered it, this was one of the 3 I had in my cart and couldn't decide on!
Je pense comprendre malgré que je ne parle pas anglais…
Je crois comprendre qu’en plus d’acheter le petit adaptateur sur amazon (facile à trouver puisque le nom du produit est clairement montré dans la vidéo!), il faudrait acheter une autre petite pièce qui s’emboîte dans la première (un genre de bras d’extension) mais quelle est cette pièce? Est-ce possible d’avoir une capture d’écran pour savoir quoi acheter exactement et à quel endroit? Merci beaucoup pour la vidéo!
Salut! Un extension comme celui ci :

@@CharlesOuimet Merci beaucoup! Je n’aurais pas acheté ce modèle et j’aurais fait une erreur! Encore merci!
Ok well done, thanks!
Thank you man!! Love that setup!
2:33 I'm gonna provide links
to the extender...
I can't find it on amazon
anyone have a link for me, please? ty
Does fit varia 515
it fit yes
Do you have the amazon links?
sorry!
neat and useful.
Thanks!! Indeed
Super ton contenu Charles!
Gros merci man!!!
will the varia work with my wahoo elemnt roam
.
Yes
Yes it works!!! Perfectly
bonne suggestion charles , je me suis poser le question comment mettre mon garmin varia mieux placer que de l avoir sur le poteau du selle, j aime beaucoup mon varia , le seul ajoute j ai fait est de avoir un petite miroir a gauche ronde de 1 5/8 dia, un petite extra to be safe , le seul hic est le varia a pas de cord de security pour le garder en place si jamais il est frapper et tombe malgre si ca tombe tu aurais peu de radar mais ca prendrais possiblement du temps a appercevoir qu il est plus la , et comme toujours essai de le retrouver , mon garmin1000 a un lacette,, m excuse pour le grammar.
Merci!! En effet pas d'espace pour une corde de sécurité, mais le mount garmin est très solide, je vois mal comment il peut tomber!!
Great video, thx! See a few of the Varia mounts on Amazon, which one did you get? And do you have the link for that saddlebag? Many thx!
The one I used is in the description, and that is a Road Runner bag
OK, appreciate it - Do you have the link to bike mount you used? - Many thx!

If it detects cars, does it detect other cyclist? If it does then it's unusable on group rides
No it's doesn't! Only cars
I think there is a way to configure it in a group ride mode.
Absolutely detects cyclists
When my riding mate passes me it alerts me
Or ditch the saddle bag and use the 15$ towards a bar bag like the cool kids 😎
mehhh bar bags are slow ;)

Thanks

Oupssss
Let's be clear. Radar is not an impenetrable force field. If a car is going to hit you, it will hit you, whether you have radar, sonar, lidar, or no-dar. I don't know about you, but I would not call this a "safety" device... some might even argue it's an unnecessary distraction. It's an awareness device. All of the dangers out on the road are still present and they still pose the same risks.
