Works well very pleased
I use my iPhone as a iPod when riding and didn't like riding with the armband I use at the gym. I was a little apprehensive when I ordered this but it was cheap enough I thought it was worth the risk. I'm quite pleased I did. It holds my iPhone at a easy angle to see and control and holds it securely. The only negative that I have found is that the phone is heavy enough and the lever arm long enough that it will rotate around the handlebar when the trail gets rough and bouncy. I recommend it though if you want a way to get the iPhone off your armband or other awkward uncomfortable and/or inaccessible place you carry it.

Not so good
I have unfortunately gone through a few of these watches. Problems with my watch have been the following:
1. Backlight burns out frequently
2. Poor quality on the wrist band
3. Can't remove battery on your own you have to send it back to the manufacturer or spend obscene amounts of money to have a watch maker do it (this feature has been remedied on newer models.
The concept of this watch is great but the quality is quite poor.

Must have filter
If you've got an Olight and enjoy stargazing or hunting or other activities requiring colored filters Olight's red is a must. Also consider the green. High quality glass filters in a rubber holder. Cons: filters are somewhat easier to fall from the flashlight when striking bezel is left on but they still stay on ok. Total light power reduced (don't expect 700 lumens in red or green) but then again the filter is there to limit a portion of the spectrum so it's only natural that overall light intensity would drop (if not I would distrust the filter!). Highly recommendable.

Garmin Zumo replacement battery
To all owners of Garmin Zumo GPS units... If your internal battery that allows you to use your GPS while not attached to an external power source such as your car/ bike cradle has not failed yet. Congratulations but it's just a matter of time. Be prepared for sticker shock when inquiring at Garmin for a replacement battery however once again Amazon comes though saving you $$ and time by ordering on-line. This product is an excellent value and I was surprised to see it was the same genuine "Garmin Product" at a great savings.

Most expensive piece of plastic I ever bought - but nice
The Biologic bike mount for iPhone 3GS is very sleek and attractive. It's well designed engineered and manufactured. The phone fits well in the case and the home button and the touch screen actually work through it. The volume buttons and sound switches are not accessible but that's a small price to pay if it indeed is waterproof. I have not tested that yet. They even left a port for the camera lens so if you have a time lapse video app on your iPhone you can chronicle your ride. My only beef is that the entire thing is just a few chips of plastic and rubber. When you get it in your hands the price of $55 feels way too high for what you are holding. The price needs to come down to the same as other iPhone cases (around $30) before I can recommend it. Also bear in mind that you have to take your iPhone out of its usual case to put it in the Biologic case. There is no extra room. That's a bit of a pain. Lastly the bike mount bracket is entirely plastic and although well designed and simple it looks like it won't stand up to repeated removal and reattachment. Hopefully Dahon will provide a replacement path for just that part. That would also help out if you have more than one bike as I do so I could get a extra mount bracket for each and move the case from bike to bike.

Fantastic!
This GPS gives you tons of information at your fingertip on the device itself but it's stored information and the software that comes with it provide you with everything you could ask for about your ride(s)! Just a fantastic piece of equipment for the cyclist!

Garmin Motorcycle Mount for Zumo series
bought as additional mount for my other M/C. What you see is what you get.
Like others thought cable might be included. (yea right) Cheaper to purchase both together & save if you need a cable too. Garmin box included tiny screws for mounting wire plug and the four larger SS bolts and nuts for mounting your ball swivel or other attachment. Yes the tiny special-cut security screwdriver was included too. 5 stars if the cable came with it...are you listening Garmin? didn't think so

Custom caps for custom bike
I bought these caps to help match my Zumo to my custom paint job on my bike. I went on a company sponsored bike ride with about 100 or so bikes and the first thing most noticed about the Zumo was the custom caps. They are the same quality as the origional and snap to install. All in all a great product.

Poor performer
I bought this unit to track how far I travel while walking. The
first unit received had bad segments in the LCD. Amazon
quickly sent another unit that did appear to work.
This unit takes a long time to find sattelites. Several times
it never found ANY under clear blue sky. It just turned off
after 10 minutes. It would lose signal frequently.
The deal breaker is that when it loses sattelites it will not account
for distance during the lost signal. Lets say you are walking/running and the unit is logging distance. For a 10th of a mile it loses
sattelite. When it gets sattelite back it starts logging
again from the new point. But it does NOT add the distance
you traveled while the signal was missing. As if I teleported
to the new location. Useless.

If you have more than one bike you need this.
If you got the Edge GPS then you already got a mount with that - actually enough parts for mounting on 2 bikes. They work just fine. But (and thanks to the person who posted the picture) this accessory kit doesn't come with the same parts as the Edge did as you might expect. It only has one mounting clip so it only good for one more bike.

Garmin Motorcycle Power Cable for Zumo 550
This came with the Zumo when you buy the Motorcycle package. I didn't know now I have two. One I used on my Trike. Works well easy to use and connect. You may ask why I don't send it back and get money back well I saveing it for when I get another motorcycle I can move the Zumo back and forth easily.
