Review on ๐Ÿบ RAM Mounts Level Cup 16 oz Drink Holder with Handlebar U-Bolt Base RAM-B-132RU and Medium Arm for Motorcycle, ATV/UTV, and Bike by Brian Wesley

Revainrating 2 out of 5

It almost works! I wouldn't recommend you buy it until this design flaw is fixed.

The screw that holds the C-frame to the ball keeps coming loose (even with factory Loctite on the threads and tightening the screw). In addition, the C-frame cannot rotate around the screw when tightened. It doesn't have to be a screw at all. It should be the shoulder screw. This allows the shoulder screw to be tightened without pinching the C-frame with the mounting ball. It then rotates in 2 axes (as it should and could) making it a true self-leveling drink holder. I spoke to the folks at RamMount and it seemed like they were very interested and very open to the idea of replacing the bolt with a shoulder bolt. Actually, the guy I spoke to said he would experiment with it himself, so time will tell. I really hope they fix this. This allows the product to reach its potential and price. With that said. How can I give something that almost works more than 2 stars? I really hope to update this review in the near future. Come Rammount. You can do that! We all make mistakes. How you fix them defines the character.

Pros
  • Nicely packaged
Cons
  • Can't remember
