GoPro talk

Hey all, I'm doing an MS 150 in spring of next year, and after my previous races, I have been left wanting a way to document them. This has led me to the humble GoPro.

I'm thinking of getting a k-edge garmin action cam combo mount.

My questions is: for road biking, is the hero5 sessions form factor a determining factor? Or should I spring for the hero 5 black?
And would the black be weirdly large sticking out from my handlebars?

Thanks,

Jackson

Session is good I have the 4, with the Session battery life is the only limiting factor I could think of, you get about 90mins record time, so depends on length of your races etc.

I used my GoPro in the past, battery and memory card were both limiting factors for me, I used a combo Garmin go pro mount from tatelabs to keep the clutter down a bit. I think the newer ones have better batteries than mine anyway but you may just have to turn it on at certain times rather than have it on all the time.

I'm comfortable with that battery life. I only want to record segments. My question remains though: is it wierd to have the full size GoPro hanging off your handle bars?

The session measures 37mm & is a cube, not that noticeable really

Neither camera on the bars is noticeable. Its like riding with a headlight. No difference. What is an MS 150 ?
