Review on Ipow Metal Bike & Motorcycle Cell Phone Mount: Unbreakable Metal Handlebar Holder for iPhone, Samsung, and Smartphones/GPS on Bicycle, Motorbike, ATV by David Bott

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Not universal - narrower handlebars will not fit - Seller suggested replacing

Disappointing. The clip comes with rubber inserts or spacers that allow you to attach the holder to your handlebars. You can add one or two. Even with two handlebar circumferences, it is not enough to tighten it all the way down, so that the bracket falls forwards or backwards after a few rides. Now I'm looking for the best padding, but the size and design makes it difficult. Installing the seals themselves is a cumbersome process at best. As for the part that protects the phone, I never worried that the phone might fall out. The rubber is strong and flexible and feels fairly reliable. But the whole goal is defeated by the inability to pull to the steering wheel. They should at least provide an extra rubber pad and really just make the mount better. --UPDATE - The seller offered to send me an updated version. I'm giving it 5 stars for now. If the new light solves the problem, it will stay.

Pros
  • Don't waste time
Cons
  • Not bad
