Collect Parts

In order to complete this project you only need a few items that you probably already have around the house.
*****************************
(1) 3/4" PVC "T" Coupling threaded on one end.
(1) 3/4" PVC threaded cap
(2) Hose clamps big enough to fit around handlebars
(1) 1/4" X 20 X 1" hex bolt with nut and washer.
That's it!
*****************************
It might be helpful to have a short length of hose to act as a spacer between the pipe and handlebars.
Also, it might be helpful to attach a piece of foam over the camera's microphone to reduce wind noise.

Cut and Drill



Begin by cutting the 3/4" "T" coupling in half lengthwise. I used a dremel to cut mine.
Then drill a 1/4" hole in the center of the threaded end cap.
Then install your hex bolt , washer and nut through the top of the end cap.
Screw the cap onto the 3/4" "T" coupling.

Screw the cap onto the 3/4" "T" coupling.
Installing the Camera Mount



Now we're going to install the camera mount.
Begin by loosening the hose clamps and slipping them over the handlebars.
Next slide the "T" coupling mount under the hose clamps and tighten the hose clamps.
**Note** You may have to slip some cardboard or small hose sections between the coupling and the handlebars to ensure a tight fit.
