I’m not sure I’d trust my $450 GoPro to a $13 holder 🤷🏼♂️ but that’s just me 😂. As I said that I realized I’m trusting it to a piece of 3M tape 🙄 lol.
Great vid man and if I haven’t mentioned it I absolutely love your new intro!! Thanks for the review brother 🥓✌🏼
To be fair, I was using a $10 amazon kit with what I assume was 3M adhesive. I had an arm snap off one day not recording and I somehow caught the gopro. I ordered this literally the next day to try lol.
Ok I found it. That is very cool mate. Good to know. There is some that won't wreck your helmet and you can remove. Awesome.
Exactly man, I'd just die if I did something to the finish. I want to take the 3M mount off my matte blue Shoei but I'm scared to.
That's nice...easy and transferable to onther helmets without worrying about using a sticky mount.
Exactly. And I’ve been liking matte helmets lately and fear the residue will ruin them.
Hahaha-my mom used to say that!!!! Great alternative, homie! Thanks for the new sticker! You da man! Love that storm trooper- esq helmet!
Thanks man.... yea that phrase is always on my head for some reason.
Thats a cool little thing for chin mounts. I can't do that with the Icon airflight though, there's a special adapter for chin mounts for that helmet.
Yea the way that lid closes it wouldn’t work. But the airflite is gorgeous
@ChopperFett - 1) Does the strapping inside the helmet interfere with your chin movement? Mouth movement? 2) What is your mic set up in relation to this mount? It seems like this might interfere a little bit with a gaming mic setup...what do you think?
Great video Brother!!! Maybe next time use an additional light source (flashlight?) when you're showing the straps on the inside of the helmet. I'm definitely going to look into this.
Thanks Toby! I agree on the interior shot. I promise I have already rectified this you’ll see in a future video haha.
1. I don’t feel the strapping at all inside the helmet, and the Rurocs have a very short snout in my option. It does bend back the chin curtain ever so slightly.
2. Mic setup is pretty simple. I use a Sony Ecm stereo mic with a deadcat. The microphone just barely sticks out of the cheek pad and all the wiring is hidden inside the liners. I have the connector easily accessed and run a 1.5 ft cable to my Tascam in my front pocket
Put that on my wife’s full face helmet. She’s happy with it. Works well. I like it better than the Sugru mounted arm extension thingy I have on. mine.
It’s very simple for sure. After a plastic arm snapped on me I don’t trust them hahaha.
@@ChopperFett I had a plastic handlebar GoPro mount snap off in my hand during this extreme cold we had. And another plastic part that had been 3D printed broke too. I switched my all of my GoPro handlebar mounts to aluminum ones with tethers now.
I have the same one and love it except when I’m not using the GoPro and leave it off. It looks a little funny on the helmet. Also it tugs on the chin curtain but I’d still prefer that vs permanently sticking something on
Yep, if I’m not recording i take it completely off so that you’d never know the helmet was a recording device.
I'm so glad I happened to find this video, I was looking for these for my own Atlas Plat Ronin and was debating on it due to the visor potentially not closing fully.
I love the idea of this! I just don't think I could use it on my modular helmet. My helmet can be used as a 3/4 helmet as well, meaning the chin guard will lock in the up position...... Great review!
Thank you. I think it could be used on a modular so long as the mic cable wasn’t plugged directly into the camera. Thanks for stopping by good sir!
Good detailed video. I might have to grab that mount and try it. Keep it up bro !
Thanks Turtle. I’ve def had good luck with it and worse case it was only like $15
getting very slick in your production sir!
I appreciate that!
Looks like a good solution for a full face helmet... Plus is easy to move between your 30 helmets 😆😆
Might have a new one in April too......
Thanks for the vid. Just getting started so going to give one of these mounts a try.
Good luck with it. I still use them when I motovlog with a helmet not usually set up for it.
I know this was a while ago, did you have much success with this thing? was thinking of getting one and they seem fairly good for basic POV use
Nice for a full face helmet. My cobbled mount for my 1/2 helmet is off to the right a bit and I'm OK with it.
Yea for a half helmet you almost have to. Might look goofy with a giant arm wrapping around your face hahaha
@@ChopperFett I don't think it looks any more goofy than any other mount. But it's got to be there for at least some shots. And if they are tits I'll feel 'em .Even if they are cold.😲🤣
I'm guessing that mount is mostly for helmets that have like a beak per se in the front like an off road helmet sort of thing... Its definitely NOT gonna work on any of my helmets cause they're modular... But its a good review for its purpose brother keep it up... And Congrats on breaking the 700 mark!!!
That is correct. They make other styles for beak related helmets I saw that clip up and under.
@@ChopperFett I have the other one you were talking about in a different video I believe but I use it off helmet as a nice clip on...hahahah
The first time I saw something like that was on the “Flight of the Magpie” and I’ve been curious about how well it works. 👍
Def gonna give them a go this season as I plan to do a lot more riding without having to record, so I want the clean helmet when just riding. Flight of the Magpie... thats bringing up a classic!
Thanks for the information . Have good weekend .
Thanks Larry. You as well!

haha, nice video man, i looked into those but i just can't get used to putting a GoPro on my bobble head, lol.
I called it and they said to talk to Setzerpendence for more money for more helmets, lids arent addictions.... lol
@@ChopperFett 😆😆😆
I'm heading down to Cyle gear this week to try on helmets. A gopro bracket has been something I've been thinking about. I like the icon helmet but the shield covering the whole face is a problem.
Yea I don’t know if this will work with the icon the way that lid closes.
ChopperFett hahaha that name hilarious
Lol thank you!
Very cool! Great video bro, quality is great!
Thanks man! Stay well buddy!
Good review. Thanks
Thanks for watching!
Are you using an external mic or the GoPro mic? I have the GoPro Media Mod and I was thinking to just use that to capture my voice since the camera will be positioned right in front of my mouth.. is that make sense? What are you using ? Could you show your mic setup? Sounds pretty good man. Thanks.
So I have now migrated to the media mod with a rode lavilier 2 microphone. I’ve only got one episode done with it but it’s also my latest if you wanna hear the sound sample
@@ChopperFett Gonna check out.. I did a video today doing a trail with my pedal bike just using the go pro attached to my handlebar and using the media mod to capture my voice and sounded pretty descent.. I just ordered this chin strap and ill test close to my mouth , im trying to avoid extra wires and stuff. haha
Nice job as always 👍
Thanks mate!!!!
Can you help? I can fit my go pro to the attachment with ease, but it still moves back and forward with no way of preventing it?
Smile, clear instructions. Go Chiefs!
Great video bro!! Just curious though....looks like the goggles don’t sit all the way down with it on? Thanks for sharing!!
Maybe not perfectly flush like the visor that allows it to lock in place. I didn’t notice any wind coming through though. I’ll have to play with it again you got my OCD in a bunch haaha
@@ChopperFett sorry bout that....didn’t mean to get that going for ya...I was just curious
Hey, I got the blue one and I attached my go pro and it keeps flopping over. I have it on my dirtbike helmet and it fits snug but the go pro rotates along and end up falling over and recording my chest! It is quite annoying, I hope you have some advice.
I noticed similar. What I did was take some screws with same pitch and thread and used that to tighten it down. In addition to that I have a ulanzi magnetic mount and it doesn’t seem to move at all
@@ChopperFett Ahhh, Thank you so much!!!
This doesn't mess with the seal on the visor?
It’s not bad. My visors can still lock. There is maybe a smidge of wind noise let through but honestly not bad.
I have a shoei X14 and have mounted the bracket (the blue one) - the chin spoiler will have to be cut to accommodate the bracket straps for sure, but did you manage to get the chin curtain on without cutting the rubber insert that secures the chin curtain to the helmet?
Hey StarLord! Yep, the only thing I had to do on my Shoei RFSR when I mounted it was cut a single hole in the mesh part of the chin guard. Thanks for watching!
Thanks - so you cut a hole in the mesh to allow passage of the two straps to pass. Do you also use a lower chin spoiler?
That I have not used so can’t help in that regard
Thank you! One more question (I live in Thailand but am setting up my Shoei with the GoPro for a US Western states solo tour in August). What is the brand of microphones you recommend? Thank you again for your help on this :)
It depends on the GoPro. 4 and lower the Sony ECM stereo mic is great. If it’s 5 and higher a lot of people have good luck with mic adapter and purple panda
Can you use this with a dirt bike helmet
Great question. With those snouts I think it would be difficult to do. I have seen some variants on Amazon designed for dirt bikes
My face shield locks down tight. I can’t see how running straps through that area will work.
So far the visors I have tried it on, both Ruroc and Shoei have still latched closed. If it’s letting any air in it’s negligible at best. Thanks for the watch.
@@ChopperFett for the price I think I’ll give it a shot. Thanks for the vid.
@@SticksAandstonesBozo hope it works for your brother! What kind of helmet you running?
How did you get it so secure. I had trouble as i could not get it tight enough
I made sure the blue lip at the bottom goes under the base of the helmet. What helmet are you working with?
👍👍
Thanks for stopping by!

Thumbs up bro take care catch you later
Thanks brother I appreciate that.
Yes you have a helmet problem. You forgot the link to amazon.
Of course I did. I’ll add that now. Thanks.
I hate this shitty mount there’s no way to get it completely straight so it’s not super noticeable but it’s really annoting
I’ve had pretty good luck with mine. I do usually have to do just a bit of horizon leveling in post but I don’t lose much of the image. Thanks for watching man!
