Excellent mount!

I bought this after reading a review and knowing I wanted to replace my QuadLock. The QL failed twice and my phone fell off the bike each time. This unit is far more secure than the QL, it is faster and easier to mount and dismount the phone. It seems lighter duty than the QL, but based on its performance, I find it to be properly engineered and manufactured accordingly. I highly recommend this mount.
This mount fits great on my Triumph Street triple R. The phone locks in and removes easy. I'm able to position it with the arm adjustments so I can easily see the phone screen. I really can't say enough about how sturdy it is! Legit, real aluminum construction. Once it's locked in, the phone isn't going anywhere. The shock absorber mount does a great job as well. The phone screen is crystal clear with no vibration from the bike. I also bought the car vent mount and (required for the motorcycle mount) phone case. The ecosystem of products work great! No complaints.
The best motorcycle mount on the market! I ordered this and a QuadLock at the same time to compare them with the intention of keeping one of them. It is absolutely no contest who makes the better mount.
The Peak Design system is so much more intuitive. The magnet plus locking teeth make putting this on extremely easy (especially with gloves) and doesn't require any weird approach angles or anything (like the QuadLock that requires a 45-degree mounting angle).
I removed the arm on mine and converted it to the low profile mount and it fits perfectly on my bars. Looking forward to riding with it!
Peak Design is definitely a top tier motorcycle mobile phone accessory. Precision engineering. It's innovative mode of operation for securing and releasing your phone is class leading. Just so simple to use. Highly recommended.
Finally after my replacement mount arrived it works. With my old mount and a cord plugged into the phone (from a 2A 5V port) my phone would charge at a decent speed. Full sun and audio + maps running maybe 10-15% per hour. This one with the GNAR case and a replaced USBC Port supporting up to 45w it charged 1% in the same time and setup.
I do wonder how much of this is actually fault of the GNAR case. My older MagSafe chargers (15w) are charging at about 1/3 the speed they did with my previous case and my newer magSafe (25w) has seen about the same % drop in charging speed.
The case is nice and does work with MagSafe and Peak wireless chargers but it is honestly too fat on the back exceeding the specification for any of the wireless charging standards.
I will continue to use the mount and the case as I don't like switching between cases in normal life and riding and i have not found a better solution to date. But, this case could have been a lot better and the mount/charger needs to watch quality control. The first one didn't work, took 2 weeks to get a replacement, the replacement works and looks fine but... was obviously a returned and repackaged product.
Great mount, it has all feature included unlike Quad Lock i.e. damper, however, unless you own an iPhone, I do cannot recommend this mount as case selection for other phone brands is horrible.
I once bought a camera strap from Peak Design for a long trip. I am very satisfied with the adjustment options of this belt and its quality. Since then, I've bought a charging stand for my phone along with a phone case. I have already dropped the phone a few times where there is no damage to either the phone or the case at all; Really a top product. Recently bought a motor holder for my phone. Given its quality and simplicity, I am confident that I will enjoy it for years to come. Peak Design : well thought-out, stylish and quality
