Qinux Pixgo 4K: how do you attach it to a bike helmet?

Helmet mounts never fit right anyway.

I actually skipped the curved one completely and used the flat adhesive pad from an old phone holder I had lying around. Stuck it to the side of my helmet and it’s been solid for two months of commuting. The included mounts felt like more hassle than they were worth.

Mine actually holds fine on the helmet with the curved mount. I just pressed it down hard on the front and it hasn’t moved in a couple of weeks. Maybe my helmet shape happens to match it.

Stick it on the side strap, worked fine for me.

I’d just skip the curved mount and stick the camera to the side of my helmet with the flat pad, way less fuss. Mine stayed put on a few rides that way. Not sure I’d trust the curved one on a helmet at all.

I just used the flat pad that came in the box and stuck it right on the front of my helmet. Been on there for a few rides now and it hasn’t budged, even on bumpy paths. Not sure how it’ll hold up long term but so far so good.

Mine ended up on the helmet strap with the little clip thing, not the sticky pads at all. Took me two rides to trust it but it hasn’t moved since, and I like that I can just unclip the camera when I stop somewhere. The pads never sat right on my helmet shape anyway.

The curved one is really for the side or top of the helmet shell, not the flat front. I stuck mine on the side and it held fine for a couple months. After that the adhesive got a bit loose, so it’s not something I’d trust forever.

I went into it expecting the sticky pads to be the whole story since that’s what every action cam seems to come with, but I ended up not using them at all on the helmet. My first attempt was the flat pad on the front and it lasted about a week before I noticed it starting to lift at one corner. Could’ve been dust or me not pressing it long enough, but either way I didn’t trust it after that.

What actually worked for me was the strap situation. I threaded the rear clip through the helmet straps near the side and it’s been solid for a couple months of regular rides. It doesn’t look as clean as a stuck-on mount and there’s a bit of wobble if I turn my head fast, but the footage is fine for what I’m doing. I’m not racing or anything, just casual rides around town and a few longer weekend ones.

The thing nobody warned me about is that the camera hanging off the strap gets in the way when I put the helmet on or take it off. I’ve knocked it a couple times. So there’s a tradeoff either way.

If the curved pad lines up with your helmet shape I’d probably just try that first since it’s less fuss. But if you’re like me and don’t want to gamble on adhesive, the strap clip is right there in the box and it does the job.
