Thinking of getting a bike cam

[SuttonRider]

I want to shot stabalised video and looking for advice of what camara to get. I will need to download to a win 11 pc. Anyone doing that? I don't want to end up paying a subscription and I want reasonable quality. Thanks in advance.

Lots of info in this thread: https://www.cyclechat.net/threads/bike-camera-with-decent-battery-life.297856/

I have a drift ghost. I download the footage to a win 11 pc with no issues. Can comment on the stability as it's helmet mounted.

Thanks for the input guys. I don't think any of those are quite what I'm looking for though. I'm coming down on the Gopro 10 at the moment, but still some research to be done. Anyone had experience with the Gopro 10?

Cycliq Pro 6 as mentioned in thread linked above.
Gopros are great as cameras but don't have great battery life so less good as bike cameras.

I use a Lidl sourced GoPro like knock off and for £££ cheaper its perfectly fine. You pay £££ for the Go Pro name. The actual camera is an Akaso V5 Pro. Actually have two as the clip on the camera case broke and under Lidls 3 year guarantee instead of supplying the clip or a camera case they supplied free of charge the complete camera set.

Don't spend more than you can afford to lose. Over the years, I've retrieved mine from a few verges, hedges and a Belgian taxi.
