XTreme Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 Cheap clickbait title alert just to announce that I've ordered this on e-Bay! The phone has to be positioned on the handlebars now, and I've found that when I get on bumpy roads the weight of my 6.8 incher caused it to droop. Only plastic supporting it you see......but this one is aluminium and matches the bike's handlebars! €27.99 on e-Bay and should be here early next week! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Fallsalot Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 @XTreme I've read a lot about these new phones with moving parts in the camera lenses being buggered by the vibration on a fixed mount might want to check your phone type before vibrating your 6.8 inches to bits 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 I am very happy with the quad lock I have on my bike. Attaching the phone on and off is very quick, super secure, and to top it it is really tiny and doesn't become a nuisance when the phone isn't there. I would have no other system. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 And the quad lock also has a vibration dampener now, to help with the possible camera damage. It's expensive but I think it's worth it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
