Touratech Anti-Theft Locking Mount for New Garmin Zumo 590LM GPS Provides Protection For Valuable Device
- Updated: July 15, 2014
Touratech’s latest anti-theft device is a locking mount designed exclusively for Garmin’s new Zumo 590LM GPS. It gives riders the confidence to momentarily leave their bikes unattended, provides a tenacious grip on the device and absorbs damaging vibration.
Developed While Circling the Globe
Touratech products are built by the world’s premier aftermarket parts manufacturer solely dedicated to high-quality products for adventure-touring bikes and dual-sport motorcycles. The new Locking Mount for Garmin’s top-of-the-line navigation unit is a beautiful, rugged piece of German craftsmanship engineered with input from adventure travelers around the globe.
Tested Tough
Constructed from lightweight aluminum and tough stainless steel, the Touratech Zumo 590 Locking Mount weighs just 13 ounces, is 4.75 inches tall, 5.5 inches wide and 3 inches deep. Available in black or silver anodized finishes, it is used in conjunction with Garmin’s power cradle.
The mount grasps the GPS with upper and lower jaws, opening them wide using elastic-band tension. For security and peace of mind when paying for gas or enjoying a meal, it disables the cradle’s release button to prevent tampering when the mount is closed. Safely in place, the GPS is locked in with the turn of a key. A pair of keys, which can be matched to other Touratech products, is provided.
Isolated from engine vibration and road shock with four rubber dampers, the rugged locking unit is ready for road riding and detouring off the beaten path. It was designed to attach to ½-inch crossbars, bracket adapters, RAM mounts and similar devices that affix electronic accessories to motorcycles.
