Dodgy Knees Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 What you guys using for a handlebar phone holder.?? I've got a eBay cheapo that clamps to bars and phone zips in case, bit flimsy though. Have seen Quad lock and Ram mount ball jobbies. Any better than other.? Neither very cheap.

Dodgy Knees Posted August 29, 2019 Author Share Posted August 29, 2019 BBB... I'm liking that, what size bolt 18 tracer 9.??? I can see the X grip prongs interfering with phone buttons. Quad lock looks pretty good aswel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chitown Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 The xgrips are popular. Use them in cages as my phone holders. No interference with buttons or ports on the various Nexus and MotoX's I've owned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member superfist Posted August 30, 2019 Premium Member Share Posted August 30, 2019 I use the Ram Mount X-Grip. I like that I can loosen it up and remove the phone holder part while leaving the ball mount on the handlebars for when I'm not using it. Also, I use that rubber bit to hold the corners of my phone every time. I just don't trust the X-Grip on its own, though I've never had an issue.

I’m a huge fan of the RokForm mount on my FJ. Cons: It’s expensive, and you do have to use the RokForm phone case with their mount. Pros: It’s beautifully made, and flawless in how it functions (quick, safe, secure). It isn’t cheap, but you definitely get what you pay for...

v1nn1e Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 I have an Ultimate Addons mount, along with the universal smartphone holder. I've not tried it on the tracer yet so I'll have to see where it fits best. I've posted elsewhere about the lugs in front of the pinch bolts on the top yoke. Anyone know if they can be used in some way...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tojjer Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 I use the UltimateAddons one shown here in the pic. Fully waterproof, can use the phone screen through it and it's sealed in rubber inside so fully protected. Bonus of being able to charge it whilst on the bike too. Well worth the money IMHO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgy Knees Posted October 24, 2019 Author Share Posted October 24, 2019 I use top left handlebar clamp bolt, 2 or 3 washers so ball is raised allowing better movement. Ultimate addons s9 case. Detach phone in seconds for taking photos, sat nav (Waze) etc. I also got the 3 inch extension but don't use it, and is a pain in the arse to use, bolt too short and fall's apart. Good kit and recommended on here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahmed Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 RAM is the answer. it holds pretty well given all the speeds and the highways and I don't want to change the holder every time I upgrade my phone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
