The BluArmor ChinMount (Gen3) is a helmet-mounted accessory designed to attach action cameras to the chin bar of motorcycle helmets. Manufactured by BluArmor, this third-generation chin mount provides riders with a low-profile mounting solution that captures a unique point-of-view angle, combining both the road ahead and the motorcycle’s instrument panel in the frame.

Key Features
Chin Bar Mounting Position: Mounts directly to the helmet chin bar, providing a unique low-angle perspective that captures both the road and your motorcycle’s controls in frame.
Universal Action Camera Compatibility: Features standard action camera mount interface, making it compatible with GoPro and similar action cameras using the standard mounting system.
Secure Adhesive Installation: Uses high-strength 3M adhesive backing designed to withstand wind pressure and vibration during high-speed riding.
Low-Profile Design: Third-generation design keeps the mounting platform compact and aerodynamic to minimize wind resistance and noise.
Use Case Scenarios
- Recording riding footage with a unique POV angle that includes both the road ahead and your speedometer, giving viewers context of your speed and gear selection
- Documenting track day sessions where the chin mount position is less likely to obstruct airflow compared to top-mounted cameras
- Creating riding vlogs where the lower camera angle provides a more immersive first-person perspective and reduces helmet buffeting noise
Why Choose the ChinMount Gen3?
- Third-generation design incorporates improvements from previous versions for better durability and mounting stability
- Low chin position reduces aerodynamic drag compared to top-mounted camera solutions, particularly noticeable at highway speeds
- Adhesive mounting system allows for clean installation without drilling or permanently modifying your helmet
- BluArmor brand compatibility ensures seamless integration with other BluArmor motorcycle electronics and accessories
Pros & Considerations
Pros:
- Unique camera angle captures both road and instrument panel simultaneously
- More aerodynamic than top-mounted alternatives, reducing wind noise and drag
- Strong 3M adhesive provides secure mounting without permanent helmet modification
Considerations:
- Requires a helmet with a suitable flat chin bar surface for proper adhesive contact – not compatible with helmets lacking a chin bar or with heavily curved chin areas
- Once mounted, repositioning may weaken the adhesive bond and require a fresh mount
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which action cameras are compatible with the BluArmor ChinMount Gen3?
A: The ChinMount Gen3 uses the standard two-prong action camera mount interface, making it compatible with GoPro cameras and other action cameras that use the GoPro-style mounting system. This includes most mainstream action camera brands.
Q: How do I install the chin mount on my helmet?
A: Clean the helmet chin bar surface thoroughly with rubbing alcohol to remove any oils or debris. Peel the adhesive backing and firmly press the mount onto the chin bar for 30 seconds. Allow the adhesive to cure for 24 hours before attaching your camera for maximum bond strength.
Q: Can I remove the mount and reuse it on another helmet?
A: The 3M adhesive is designed for permanent installation. While you can remove it, the adhesive will lose its bonding strength and cannot be reliably reused. Removal may also leave adhesive residue on the helmet that requires cleaning with adhesive remover.
Q: Is the chin mount safe to use at high speeds on highways?
A: Yes, when properly installed on a suitable helmet surface with 24-hour curing time, the mount is designed to withstand highway speeds. Ensure your camera is securely locked into the mount and periodically check the mount’s adhesion, especially after long rides or exposure to extreme weather.
Q: Will this mount work with my full-face helmet?
A: The ChinMount Gen3 works with full-face helmets that have a flat or gently curved chin bar surface large enough to accommodate the adhesive pad. It will not work with modular helmets in the chin bar area, open-face helmets, or helmets with heavily contoured or vented chin sections that prevent full adhesive contact.
