If you own a eTrex Vista HCx Do NOT Buy! May 18, 2008 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
If you are thinking of purchasing this bike mount to use with a Garmin eTrex Vista HCx, don't do it. The new battery panel does not fit on the Vista HCx. I just printed my return label and sealed the box to send it back to Amazon. The quality of the item is great(4 stars), but for Amazon not being more clear about compatibility(-1 star).
That little piece of plastic May 15, 2008 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
Bought it for use with my Vista HCx. One needs to screw on a bicycle mount adapter to the back cover of the original HCx back. That mount adapter is one of the accessories that comes together free with the Vista HCx. It is needed to fit the Vista HCx onto this bicycle mount. For now, the plastic cover is useless as its only for non 'x' versions of the etrex series. But anyway looking at it, the Vista HCx battery cover is much better with the rubberised insulation. The HCx bicycle mount adapter itself is also better as it has a larger lever than the one in the cover supplied in this product. As for the bicycle mount, it fits perfectly with my mountain bike. Those with larger tube diameters can by the Large rail mount adapter:Garmin Large Diameter Rail Mount Adapter (010-10496-00)
For users who have an Etrex/Vista/Legend 'x' versions(with microsd expansion) i suggest buying this instead: Garmin Rail Mount Adapter (010-10496-01). The search for "Garmin Bicycle Mount" didnt turn this up because its a "RAIL MOUNT" which is half the price of what i bought here. One will still need the plastic bicycle mount adapter accessory that came with the GPS device.
does not work with newer eTrex GPS units May 10, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
If you have a newer Garmin eTrex GPS with a microSD slot, this bicycle mount will not work. You need to buy the Garmin "rail mount adapter" instead. That product is cheaper and comes in 2 different sizes to fit skinny handlebars (most mountain bikes) and fat handlebars (most road bikes).

Does not work for Vista HCX April 21, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
This item says it will work for the Vista but the back will not work for the Vista HCX. Save a couple of bucks and get the rail mount by itself. The Vista HCX comes with a clip that will fit the rail mount but I didn't know where I put my so I bought the kit. I had to find my clip since the back would not fit my HCX due to the memory card slot.
Ok - but a couple of issues... April 15, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I would give it 5 stars if I could use this on my bike that has > 1" handlebar diameter. There is no oversize version.
I had to cut some of the plastic insert and insert my own to make it fit and not slip.
Took a little work to get the screw into the nut (sounds crazy, but yes - it can be a little tricky if not closed flush).
