Overview

The Garmin 010-12881-01 is a bicycle handlebar mount that keeps a compatible handheld GPS in view while you ride.

Your device snaps into the mount in portrait or landscape orientation. The kit supports 22 mm and 32 mm handlebar diameters, and portrait mode is recommended when using Montana 700i and Montana 750i units.

If you carry a handheld GPS on a boat and then take it ashore, this mount is a straightforward way to use the same unit on a dock bike or folding bike without juggling pockets or lanyards.

Installation and setup

Choose a spot on the handlebar where the screen is easy to see and where cables and controls will not interfere. Tighten the mounting hardware by hand until the mount is secure, and avoid over-tightening.

Set the bottom of the device into the cradle, then tighten the security screw at the top. To remove the unit, loosen the security screw, press the release button, and tilt the device forward to lift it out.

Use around the water

This accessory is built for bikes, but it is commonly used by boaters who want their handheld GPS with them on quick shore runs. If it sees salty air or spray, rinsing and drying after the ride helps keep the hardware moving freely.
