Hello, I wanted to mention this mount and post as a Bryton thread because I have heard some bad reviews and comments about Bryton connections as far as clicking into the 1/4 turn style mounts/inserts.
I have several mounts from Bryton. Inserts, Chinese mount models, insert replacements from several sources. But this one I received today from Ebay is the best ever!
I've had a hard time getting that good snap like I do with my Garmin. The original mount/insert works well but held on to the bars with one of those black rubber O ring types. I don't totally trust those after a few months worrying about rot. Though never happened to my Garmin mount when I first purchased it, I inspected it often, even lubed it to protect it from corrosion.
But got into aluminum mounts having a GoPro to record my rides. But could never get a good snap connection other than the little plastic provided. So I ordered this one and it is GREAT !!!
Put it together, all screws fit nicely, insert and cam/light attachment. I do install all screws with Blue Loctite. Even remove the screw on the arm to secure with LT as well. After learning my lesson on a ride, a light wiggled loose and was hanging by a thread, not literally but by a loose screw, I guess.
But putting this mount together, it is awesome as far as the Bryton mounting insert. I don't think my Garmin ever snapped into place like this one.
Very Happy!!! Just thought I'd mention it after hearing a few mention the poor connection of the Bryton mounts. Just thought you should know.
This seller is sold out, think I got the last one but ebay does have similar sellers with the same mount ad. I'm almost tempted to order another because it connects so well for a Bryton.
I would also suggest AVOIDING THE WEST BIKING model. It has a single screw style in the center of the insert. This allows the insert to spin while trying to connect the device into the 1/4 unit. Plus the camera attachment sits sideways because the mount screws are fore and aft. Who the heck designed this thing? I dunno but don't buy it!
