Got a Go Pro....now what?

Picked up a Go Pro Hero 8 from the Amazon bundle deal, came with a mini tripod/stick, memory card and extra battery.

Going to be a casual user, went with the 8 because of the awesome video stabilization.

I see a lot of offbrand accessory kits for $35-40 that have fairly decent reviews, any RFD tips about those? Good value or avoid like the plague?

Looking to go cycling mostly, mounting on helmet and/or bike handle bars. Will eventually go canoe/kayak, swim, light climbing, hiking, nothing extreme.

Off-brands accessories work pretty well, use them with my GoPro 9

get a good handlebar clamp for your bike. any decent sized bumps may cause the gopro to move around.

Did that yes.

I scored a $5 accessory kit from Walmart clearance! It came with EVERYTHING those Amazon/Aliexpress kits had for $40.
