    Any one mount a GPS or phonvibration e bike? I googled a bunch of stuff but there is always mixed reviews of every mount I see. I have a RAM mount I use in my Tacoma but it does not seem secure enough, and also has some side to side play in the X part that causes vibration. 20160329_183549.jpg.

    Where'd you get either of those helmets?
    Everyone I know uses the RAM mount without issues.

    Do they use a tether of any kind? I see some with a stretch band that goes over the corners.

    Nope not that I know of. One buddy went down on the street in a pretty good wreck and his phone stayed in it.

    That video was hilarious. The Mario/luigi outfits killed me.

    I like my sedici dualsport helmet. Has a visor bit goggles work well with it too. I believe they knocked the price down to $99 at cycle gear recently.

    Pick your favorite backpack and get a platypus or MSR bladder.

    I really need a camera. I almost got hit 2 times today. I guess people cant hear my full exhaust with no baffle. Right @CanisLupus ?

    Eventually I want to get a Sony ActionCam. I had a GoPro hero 3 white, but it broke, and I just sold it for parts.

    IMO if you want something just got safety and video of accidents I would get a dash cam and find a way to mount it. It'll autorecord over old stuff and save videos.

    But if you want to edit as well then get something like a action camera

    I have a one industries, I think he's as comfortable as my arai street helmet

    For luggage and stuff I think ogio has the best everything. I'm biased but I travel a lot and all of their stuff has held up. I know they've got a few camel back options

    Visors fog easily going slow, goggles dont. That was my finding this past weekend in cinders. The visor is more comfortable but goggles just worked better

    Hmm, I've had the exact opposite happen to me. I'm going through a slow trail and my goggles start building up with sweat/fog, so I have to take them off and put the face shield down so I don't get hit with branches.

    I wear tight-fitting sunglasses that wrap around kinda. Goggles and visors always fog for me but I sweat a lot.

    I have an AFX DS-39 or maybe it's the 41. Cheap, lots of airflow. Comfortable enough but definitely not as comfortable as the more $$$ helmets but it does the job. $130ish. My last one lasted a year and a half of heavy abuse.
