I planned to buy one of these handle-bar racks when I bought the PN-30 GPS handheld. I received the unit and made sure that it would do what I intended and within a day I ordered the handle-bar mounting kit and the carrying bag as well.
The handle-bar mount is a universal fit device. It clamps to your handle-bar by the use of heavy-duty zip-ties and DeLorme provides a self-stick rubber sheet that you wrap around your handle-bar before attaching the unit. While it is a primitive design, it works flawlessly and I tested it on some rough road before I considered writing a review of the product. It has not slipped at all and the PN-30 is held securely at just the right viewing angle for me.
I would love to see DeLorme modify the mounting kit to make it easier to put the GPS handheld into the bar mount, but, it is so secure the way it is designed, so, I am pretty sure they make it the way they do to prevent the unit from accidently coming loose if you are mountain-biking or riding a rough road like the Pan-Am Highway.Get more detail about DeLorme AF-7852-000 Earthmate PN Series RAM Bicycle Mount.
