We have a new Garmin VIRB Elite
which we've been testing in various locations from mountain biking to
windsurfing in Tarifa and we'll have some more definitive reports in the
next 2 weeks.
What I can say is that it is heavier than a GoPro
and this can be a disadvantage on a rig where lightness is important so
you may prefer to use it on a bike when the mass is lower down and far
less obvious.
It seems that the Garmin is designed more for
vehicles of some sort (bikes included) and they have added all the usual
distance and position GPS and Wi-Fi stuff plus a small screen for
set-up - which can be very useful. It feels quite nice in the hand, as
well, and the controls seem pretty intuitive.
Here's a shot of it on the Flymount with the GoPro 2 adapter for rigidity.
