They have mounts made specifically       for mounting on bikes and the good ones have a mode that will correct for       any shaking the bike might do.              Two caveats -- the best ones are expensive, but there are some affordable       ones out there that take video that should be more than good enough for       your needs.              -- Action cams take good daylight footage but, if you bike at night, it       will come out darker than most good car dash cams. Depending on where the       footage is taken, you might not be able to see much if it is not a well lit       area.              I recently bought an Akaso Brave 6+ that works pretty well. It can record       4K video, but I prefer the 1080p with the highest framerate (which is       higher than the highest 4k rate).              There is also an Akaso Brave 7 out. It has screens on both sides, but they       apparently sacrificed photo quality for adding the second screen. Most       reviewers prefer the older 6+.              Mike                      * SLMR 2.1a * All animals are equal, some more than others.       --- SBBSecho 3.12-Linux        * Origin: capitolcityonline.net * Telnet/SSH:2022/HTTP (1:2320/105)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 15/0 18/200 19/36 90/1 105/81 106/201 116/18 120/302       SEEN-BY: 120/340 123/131 140 124/5016 153/7715 154/10 203/0 218/700       SEEN-BY: 221/0 222/2 226/30 227/114 702 229/101 424 426 452 664 981       SEEN-BY: 229/1016 1017 230/150 152 240/1120 5832 249/110 206 307 317       SEEN-BY: 249/400 250/1 261/38 100 1466 266/512 267/155 275/100 280/464       SEEN-BY: 280/5003 282/1031 1056 288/100 291/100 111 292/854 317/3       SEEN-BY: 320/119 219 322/757 340/400 341/66 342/200 396/45 423/120       SEEN-BY: 633/267 280 640/1321 1384 712/620 848 770/1 801/161 189 2320/0       SEEN-BY: 2320/105 195 200 304 2452/250 3634/12 5020/1042       PATH: 2320/105 261/38 712/848 280/464 229/101 426           |
