I've shot lots on my mountain bike and looks much smoother than yours, similar to Krause31.
First shot of SP's video was over cobblestones and any bike will physically move up and down rapidly - no gimbal made by anyone can stop that without suspension in between, it's actualyl physically moving your camera up and down in the Y axis - gimbals don't stop that movement being transferred to the image -similar but much faster than the walking-bobbing effect.
Try the following -
Place the bike mount as close to the handlebar stem as you can - not near the ends of the bars.
Drop your tyre pressure to make them soft and spongy. (also if you have a dually soften the suspension). Road bikes with 100psi skinny tyres and hard frames will never get good results.
Dismantle the 'piston' (it's just a spring inside) and stretch out the spring so the piston is always engaged, then use a cable tie around it(around the piston ends) to just nip back in some tension so it works against the cable tie in one direction, and the spring in the other.(there's Youtube videos showing how to do it - it's easy).
The latest Go app has a "Sport" and a "Wearable" gimbal setting - try them.
Make sure you use either 1/25th or 1/30th shutter speed by using ND filters to 'smooth out motion by adding motion blur. Bright days and Osmo set to Auto usually give very high shutter speeds which make moving scenes very jittery/strobey (like the opening scenes from "Saving Private Ryan" where they used the high shutter speeds to make it really shakey-jittery). Various Youtube videos explaining how to do it with Osmo...... DJI sell the ND filters.
If you don't get the pictures you want, buy the helmet sticky mount with the extension cable. The "Sticky" part of the mount doesn't work that well on bicycle helmets (it looks like it's designed for the smother/flatter surfaces of motorbike helmets) so I use a combination of velcro and cable ties to affix to my mtb helmet. It's a different video look to the handlebar mount, as it mimics your head movement, but it sure is smooth.
Look at getting the chest strap mount.
