Satmap

[Fozzyuk]

Simple question probably multiple answers. I've been offered the loan of a satmap 10 for the bb 200. Looking at bike mounts I can't seem to find anything less than 30 odd quid.

Anyone have a cheaper alternative please ?

Not that I have seen, it does come with a new back cover with a mount on it so you can slip it on the one on the bike.
As well as being 30 squid its not the most subtle of mounts, quite a brute for the job really.
On the plus side, mine has never fell off on the last 3 WRT's

I picked up one of these today to try my Galaxy S4 in. The small zipped one would fit an external battery pack in as well. Probably too small for the sat map though.

Been using my satmap for the last 6 months. The standard bike mount does make it sit rather high and would make it vulnerable of you go arse over but it holds the unit securely. I've also used an exped smart phone pouch which has enough loops to attach it to a harness / revelate pocket setup but it tends to flop around a bit as the exped pouch is quite big. All the other pouches - ortleib etc. - don't have enough attachment points to hold it securely.

Thanks all...

and having just discovered that my newly ordered 1:50K UK Garmin SD card doesn't work in the Satmap...anyone got any good sources for maps ;-(

Only through sat map but they are cheap - £45 for full UK 1:50k
