Purchase on Amazon: http://amzn.to/2e972Bj My review of the similar suction cup mount: http://youtu.be/3ToL7J2DrO4 With all the workout apps there are in the App Store and Play Store, it's common place to take your smartphone with you while out on a bike ride. If you're looking for an inexpensive way to secure your smartphone to your handlebars then look no further. This is the U-Grip Plus Universal Smartphone Bike Mount by Aduro. If you saw my review of the U-Grip Plus Suction Cup Mount, this mount shares a lot of the same components. I'm a huge fan of the suction cup mount and Aduro was kind enough to send me this mount for review to see if performs as well. The main difference is this mount has red rubber webbing that holds your smartphone by the corners to provide extra security while driving your bike. The mount consists of a spring loaded grip and an adjustable collar for setting the tension. The grip attaches to a ball socket on the base. The base wraps around the handle bars and has three shims to accommodate a wide variety of handlebar sizes. You tighten the base to the handle bars using the included bolt and hex key. Its a shame that it's not a tool free installation but I'm thankful that Aduro has include the only tool you'll need. I mentioned in the suction cup mount review that the first component I thought would fail would be the spring loaded grip. On the old mount you can see the springs inside of the grip when the arms are pulled apart. The bike mount has a cover that protects those springs from being exposed. For my bike I had to use all three of the provided shims for a tight fit. Doing so made the mount very solid. Installing your smart phone in the mount is very simple. You can spread the arms of the grip by pressing your phone against one side of the grip. Then you attach the red webbing by pulling it over the corners of the phone one corner at a time. My iPhone 6 in an Otterbox case fits easily into this mount. I also tested a friends Galaxy Note with a case and it fit as well. So an iPhone 6 Plus shouldn't be a problem either. To remove you simply pull off the webbing from the corners and remove the phone. I was really impressed with how solid my phone was in this mount. There was no noticeable vibration and my phone didn't budge even when driving in rough terrain. Because this mount is so similar to the suction cup mount the parts are interchangeable. I showed in the suction cup mount review how the suction cup was strong enough to even work as a Go Pro style mount to the outside of my truck. Now with the adding webbing you don't have to worry about your phone coming out of the grip either. This mount is very simple and yet works very well. I was very impressed with how stable my phone was in the mount. And there's no reason why this wouldn't work with a motorcycle either. It currently sells for $30 on Amazon and although that's not quite as big of a bargain as the suction cup mount, it's definitely worth that. I'll put a link to this mount on Amazon in the description and if you have any questions feel free to leave them in the comments.

Does not work with Huawei Nexus 6p due to spring loaded clamps activate the volume buttons.

How well held is the phone? I notice you mentioned off roading but how is it for even bumpier terrain such as stairs or even jumping around?

Great review of an awesome product. Works perfect with my iPhone 6s in a Lifeproof case. I also had to use all three shims, but that's what they're there for.

Drive 65 mph with your expensive phone on the mount and see if the suction will hold to the side of your car.

I purchased this recently to record some scopes while riding, I have an HTC one m9 which has a curved metal back. This mount will not hold your HTC M9 or any phone for that matter with a curved back properly. The side spring loaded side grips also lock onto the buttons where the M9 is at so my phone will lock out on and off. Cool design and seems like it functions for other flat phones but not the HTC's.

Would I be able to use this with my iphone to record my bike rides? Like a forward perspective?
-
Thanks, now it's time to buy.

How large is the clamp? Will it fit on road bikes with very large handle bars and stem? I would like to use it on my stem. It is about 13,5cm in diamater, and not perfectly round. Do you think it would fit?
-
so the part that holds onto the handle bar is flexible enough to snap onto the bar or do I have to take off the brake and handle bar grip?
-
but i cant but a powerbank and a gps in it?
-
Hey how thick things can you hold in that holder?
