That click that mount

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...
I generally use a dedicated bike computer with its own mount, but for my "around town" bike I wanted an easy way to mount my iPhone so I could a) get it out of my pocket, and b) keep an eye on time, use Strava or a maps, etc. the Universal Bar Mount is the perfect companion to my Peak Design iPhone case. It's snaps right in, holds securely, rotates, and is easy to remove. The mount holds the phone nicely tight to the bar so it's not in the way but doesn't interfere with steering, and is pretty unobtrusive when the phone isn't mounted. Nice job, PD!
When looking at the website, it feels expensive for what it is, but it's actually a really made piece of kit. I'll probably still be using it in 5+ years or for however long PD make mobile products.
