Nicely done. You covered a lot of points that I was curious about. I'm looking forward to your full review. I'm mainly interested in how the Boom Arm would work for vlogging on a bicycle. For that, the GoPro would have to be raised up quite high and placed quite far forward so that the camera can be turned around and aimed back at the rider with a wide enough field of view. I assume three of those arm links would have to be combined in order to make it long enough to do that. And then the question becomes whether at that length, it would be stable enough and strong enough to support a GoPro plus Media Mod plus wireless mic receiver (which is my standard vlogging setup). Of course, there would be the option of adding a bracing arm supporting it from underneath. But it would take some DIY rigging and thought to figure out how to do that on a bicycle's handlebars.

I've tested it with the standard two bar setup facing me as I cycle and it looks great. There is a little wobble and I'm yet to add the media mod. I'll test this for you!

I think you can combine Boom + Adhesive with Suction Cup and Handlebar mount, because you have that "Mounting Buckle"

[@Rush-Media]

Yes you can do that, but the bar mount you buy separately is a different product to the bar mount that comes with the boom pole system. In my opinion the included bar mount is sturdier and more secure but less versatile in the width of bars it fits on.

I actually bought the bike mount just because i need a filler for the free shipping plus the additional 15% off as a subscriber.

Gets me everytime :D

COOL Video!

[@Rush-Media]

Thanks @JMTech, Have you bought it yourself?

[@JM_Tech]

@@Rush-Media No. I want it but think it is expensive.

[@Rush-Media]

@@JM_Tech yeah, it is. But I used it today on a bike ride and I have to say, it really is fantastic! The price should come down eventually?

[@JM_Tech]

@@Rush-Media Cool! I still would like to see someone review the gopro sunglasses

[@ClydeasterzVlogz]

Is the bar mount good for motorcycles?

[@Rush-Media]

I'd say yes, it will enable you to capture unique angles as you ride. But be aware that there is a little movement. I have made a follow up video to this one with more thorough testing

[@steezeysteve747]

Excellent informative video , is the bar mount alloy or metal , as my previous bar mounts have broken as they are plastic ?

[@Rush-Media]

Yes they are metal! It really is a well designed product.

[@Vassenden_yt]

Is it real carbon fiber?

[@Rush-Media]

Yes it is!

[@Vassenden_yt]

@@Rush-Media That's pretty cool, an very unlike GoPro. But at the same time, a fiber injected molded part, like on the 3-way is probably a lot more expensive to make.
