I mainly use this on my bike so I can see directions around the city, and just to have a place to store my phone. I think this is the perfect mount for the everyday cases. It's easy to attach, looks clean and feels super secure, and the rotation is really nice.
I’m a road cyclist and I love the other out front mount. Problem is I like my Garmin in that position so I need a mount for my phone like this one. The connection is brilliant. The magnets making lining the thing up a breeze. Problem is that the entire mount moves. It’s not secure enough and actually ends up with me needing to periodically pull the phone & mount back into position. It isn’t ever going to fall off but it is annoying. Needs a zip tie connection to rectify this issue. Or at least an option for that. Fingers crossed they make a headset mount that screws in place.
I keep misplacing this mount at home. All because it’s versatile and I end up placing it everywhere. It’s a no go item because it jus clicks. Secure locked all the time. Wow.
This is really solidly made ..the actual latching block rotates through 360 degrees with a very solid ratchet effect ..total confidence that when I’m heading down the bike trail that this will stay attached to the bikes handlebars even if I don’t !?
Stroller, Bike, Shower Curtain Rod, Snowblower handle, lawn mower handle .... so many uses for this thing! It is the number 1 accessory you should buy if you have the Peak case with the square mounting bracket on back. Hint* You only need to depress one side to release/engage the locking mechanism on this mount.
Use it on my bike, in my house or in cars (not always easy but it works). It@s really universal and practical. Unclipping with one hand without any problem !
I liked the bar mount... but I tend to do more jogging than cycling. So I made some modifications and installed my own belt clip from an old holster. It works well but I'm looking forward to the version that PD will design someday... hopefully.... I cut down the clip and drilled out screw holes to match the back plate. Now for the weather to improve to test it...
