Does look like a fairly good deal even for a refurbished unit Thumbs Up

I'd point out though that they don't appear to be including the 'universal clip' so you'd need to spend another £14.99 with them for a mounting kit too if you don't already have one. I expect that's mostly where they make their money on the deal, it's a little plastic clip worth all of 20p but you can't mount the cam without it

Their actually smaller than they look in pictures/videos, certainly better suited to a helmet than a gopro.

If you want something more streamlined have a look at contour camera's.

The Roam 2 does look good and most of the reviews I read were positive. Was going to order one myself but got the smaller Drift 2 for £90 from the thread on here

https://www.bikechatforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=304323

Looks like that deal has ended now but don't know if they'll repeat it?


At £60 though I'm tempted to get one of those older Drifts just to have as a spare or use on the MTB Thinking

Got mine today, it does indeed need the little screw in clip mount, plus a good Speed 10 Micro SD card, so its more like £90 altogether.

It is however in very good condition and comes with 2x adhesive mounts and a goggle mount. Still a bargain!

I got the remote with mine for some reason. And when you buy the clip you get two more mounts also. Thumbs Up

It will withstand water splashes or heavy rain etc but it can't be submerged.

The discount code and extra £6 off swung it for me so just ordered one! Couldn't not do at £54 Thumbs Up Laughing

Just got mine, Seems okay. Came with the remote, so that's nice. Will need to buy a memory card and the screw for the mounting points

But it's clean in good condition.

Embarassed Didn't think about the memory card... Anyone recommend a decent one?

Also, are the adhesive mounts secure enough to use on the bike?

32GB Samsung EVO 48MB/s Micro SD card can be had on the bay for £8.99, that's what I've got in my Drift 2 and will be getting another Thumbs Up

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/32GB-Micro-SD-SDHC-Samsung-EVO-48MB-s-UHS-I-Class-10-Memory-Card-with-Adapter-/321800417407?hash=item4aecccb07f


Adhesive mounts are seriously strong so long as they are making good contact.

I'd buy a memory card from a web shop rather than eBay as there's so many fake cards on there it's ridiculous, especially when you get up to the larger capacities.

They're fake in as much as they're a smaller than stated capacity, but formatted in some funky way such that devices see it as 32gb or whatever it's advertised as - but you only realise when you try recording for 30 mins or something, and on playback you find you've got maybe 5 mins as it just keeps overwriting it.

I'd have thought that would be more an issue with the cheap unbranded ones. One I got is 100% genuine and in full retail packaging as listed, if it wasn't I'd just get a refund.

Is there a sure fire way of sticking these to your helmet without firstly compromising the integrity of the helmet and secondly the camera falling off?

I'm tempted but don't trust suction mounts one bit.

I used the google mount to attach it to the strap of my rucksack, with a bit of fine tuning it works great.

Use one of the curved glue mounts. Permanently attaches to your helmet.
