Brought the Osmo Pocket with me on a recent trip to Tokyo, Japan.  On a sunny day at Lake Yamanaka, I attached my Osmo Pocket to the basket of a bike to test its limit when I cycled around the beautiful lake.
The reflection for me is that I should have attached it to my body instead of the bike, the bumps with no cushion/buffer really made it hard for the Osmo Pocket to perform. Apart from that, the Osmo Pocket performed extraordinarily.

Yes, you need some form of shock absorber when you're riding through bumps. Otherwise a wonderful video. Did you get a shot of Mt. Fuji? There wasn't much snow on the cap when I was there in Jan. You can see my clips here:

Thanks!  

I think attaching to the body or shoulder would give a better result than the little device, even though I don't have as much cushion as the guy in the video

I was there early January, and lucky enough to have super good weather & clear sky (except for sunset time) during my two days at Lake Yamanaka.  I took pictures/videos/time-lapse of the Mt Fuji mainly with my DSLR & Mavic Pro.

The drone footage is still in progress, below is a time-lapse video (hope it doesn't violate the forum rules as it is not taken by DJI product though) and a picture

Guess we were there about the same time then. The weather was perfect, just wish there were more snow on the mountain top but at least I made it to level 5 finally after 35 years ;-)

That timelapse is awesome. You are so lucky to have had perfect weather. I was there from Oct to Nov last year and never got a look at Fuji (fortunately I'd seen it previously though)

I am still more interested in taking its pictures from a distance LOL
but I will definitely try to go up the mountain top once in my lifetime

thanks!  
and actually after the cycling, I found that the surrounding area will be hosting bicycle games in 2020 Tokyo Olympics!

Yea, the mountain top is not that impressive up close, especially if there isn't a good amount of snow. It's the view it offers of the surrounding area like the lakes and mountain ranges:











like the Mountain ranges that you

I remember seeing so-called z-axis stabilizers on places such as eBay, Amazon, ScottyMakesStuff etc. Could one of those help with the bumps, and could it be attached to a bike handle?

I ought to get myself a bicycle too, and test the mount I bought from my local department store. Though I have no plans to travel to Japan
