🚴 LifeProof iPhone 4/4s Bike Mount - Black (Discontinued) - Secure Your Phone on Bike Rides Review

I really like rescue kits but these bike mounts are disappointing. For the price you pay for the case and brackets, I expected an "apple" experience - a nice, thoughtful design. The case lives up to that expectation, but when you flip the case over and slide your phone into the holder, all of that experience is lost once you start your journey and hear your iPhone rattling in the holder. I attached the rattle by attaching the fluffy side of the velcro to the mount, but this clever one is very…

Still waiting for a response from LifeProof support. Mine broke in one hell of a two, and the phone was hurtling down the road at 30 mph. I have driven over 2500 km without hiccups. But I paid $40 for it and I'm very glad it just broke in half. Update January 2013 New. I'll say I've ridden about 3000 miles with the mount in place and in some inclement weather (rain, heat etc) but still. The design is such that the main stem is basically just forked. At least they replaced it without question…

I bought this to work with my old iPhone 4s and use some iPhone apps while cycling, specifically Strava maps and music. I like driving out of town, driving and getting lost while driving, so having a map in front of you is very helpful. Of course I could have spent a lot more on a Garmin or a bike computer, but with an old 4s and a relatively cheap price for a waterproof case and bike mount I figured why not. Also, I can download about 10GB of music, so I feel like I'm not completely alone…

So far this works pretty well, I've made about 6 trips since I got it. The included rubber grommets didn't work well for attachment to the FSA bar, but instead I used several layers of tape and it seems to be working fine. It was difficult to tighten the large nut just enough to keep the unit from tipping while driving, but after a few tightening it seems to be holding up well now. Of course I also have a Lifeproof case (which I really like) and it fits well in this mount and doesn't look like…

First, as many other reviewers have said, you need a protective case for this to work. When you buy Lifeproof, you buy their ecosystem, just like Apple. You start with a premium case and you can add all sorts of accessories to it. This accessory is amazing. With a protective case, my iPhone is already shockproof and waterproof. This mount almost makes it a Go Pro camera. I can record videos from my iPhone. It's not the best quality, but better than you'd expect. However, if you want a really…

First of all, to clarify some points that some consumers are missing. This LIFEPROOF bike carrier is designed for use with the LIFEPROOF case. If you don't have a case, this won't work. If you have a cover and have found it can save lives, this is a must have when riding a bike. This bracket fits snugly on the steering wheel. It comes with grommets so you can adjust it to fit your bike exactly. Once attached, it's easy to slide your iPhone (with case) into the holder. Once the iPhone is in…
