Garmin Varia RCT715 For GoPro Mount

Features:

• ​Garmin Varia RCT715 mount for GoPro (action camera) compatible base mounts.
• Attach to various base mounts for a more integrated and tidier setup; saddle, saddle rail, seat post mounts etc.
• Compatible with the new Varia RCT715 radar camera/light.

Overview
This mount allows you to attach your Garmin Varia RCT715 radar camera/light to any mount featuring a action camera type lug; saddle mounts, saddle rail mounts, seat post mounts, etc. It holds your device securely and allows you to find a much more integrated and tidier installation compared to the stock rubber band mount from Garmin.

The locking mechanism that comes with your Varia RCT715 will unbolt from the OEM seat post mount and bolt to this MagCAD mount. Therefore you get the locking security of the OEM Garmin interface with the versatility of the MagCAD mount.

The pivot also makes it very easy to position the device vertically to reliably detect traffic approaching from behind.

​Application
Follow the below procedure to mount your Varia to your action camera compatible base mount:

1. Remove the locking interface from your OEM Garmin Varia RCT715 seat post mount using a Torx T10 driver and retain the screws, they will not be required.
2. Bolt the locking interface onto the MagCAD mount with the M3 cap screws, not supplied.
3. Attach the lanyard, not supplied, and loop around something secure on your bike.
4. Install the MagCAD Garmin Varia RCT715 Mount onto your selected action camera compatible base mount, pivot to your preferred orientation and tighten.
5. We recommend using thread lock on all fasteners to keep the mount secure and parts should be inspected periodically.

The below hardware is not supplied but very simple to source locally:

• 2x M3x14mm cap screws.
• 1x lanyard.
