Cycling Weekly Verdict

The Insta360 Go 2 works really well and is a joy to use. It’s a camera that is simple to carry and makes it easy to grab clips of what's happening. Editing the files later is equally simple using the included software. You could get super creative if you wanted but you could also use it in a very basic way. This camera opens up options and removes worry. If you have any interest in showing people what you do on the bike, definitely grab one.

I spend long hours out on my bike in areas around Portland, Oregon, experiencing unbelievable landscapes. But when I get home, there's not been a good way of sharing what I've had the pleasure of seeing. 

Over the years, I've been through periods of trying to find a some way of sharing my experiences. I always have my phone with me – so any potential option always has the modern mobile phone as competition. Especially given that there are times when I resign myself to using my phone and give up looking for another option.
