Review: Simple clip-based phone mount works great. - This cell phone mount is a simple product that does its job very well. It basically consists of a hinge-based mount to attach to a bike and a clip that holds your phone. The clip is strong with rubber grippers. It's able to hold my phone tightly over bumps and also accommodates my large Galaxy S3 as well as my wife's iPhone 5S. The clip is mounted to the anchor portion with a ball joint and a coupling that is used to tighten the ball joint to prevent the clip from any unwanted spinning. The ball joint provides adequate freedom to place a phone in portrait or landscape mode. The anchor portion uses a hinge system to mount itself to the bike. There are 3 places of varying heights for the hinge to sit as to accommodate different sized handlebars or frames. The hinge is then fastened with a screw that has a plastic sort of wingnut on the end. No screwdriver necessary. A rubber filling sits inside the hinge to provide a secure grip on the handlebar. In all, it took about 2 minutes to figure the product out in order to mount on the bike. The rubber filling was not secured to the hinge in any way, so we almost lost it. Without it, I don't think the mount would be able to hold itself upright on the handlebars. I wouldn't trust the clip to hold my phone on a rough mountain bike trail, but it does a great job over light terrain like road and worn trails. Overall, it's a simple design that I would easily recommend to others. Review: Dependable - I was a little cautious about using this mount for the first time, but have been surprised by its dependable performance: it has never once dropped my phone! Pros: good, reliable hold--grippy rubber and strong springs never drop phone Pivot allows you to rotate the phone freely, even when on the move Quick mounting and removal of mount Instant mounting and removal of phone Cons: the pivot joint is designed to display your phone at an angle, thereby limiting the movement a little the knobs used to tighten the pivot joint and bracket are rather difficult to turn for Galaxy S4 users: the placement of the clamp lines up perfectly with your power button, so be careful when you mount your phone, or you might lock the screen or turn your phone off!

Works great on my Harley! UPDATED REVIEW!
Great product at a great price! Easily and quickly mounted on my Harley Davidson handlebars. I've been using for about three weeks now, works great with my Nuvi GPS and iPhone. I was a bit nervous about putting my iPhone on this mount, but after several hundred miles of riding, I have no worries. Has a very strong spring, clam style grip with rubber on the inside to protect your device and to keep it from any slippage. Highly recommend this product. UPDATE: While riding my Harley at about 70 MPH down the highway, my GPS along with the holder went flying off my handlebars. It broke behind the spring clip where it attaches to the mounting bracket. With all the cars on the highway and most likely damaged from flying onto the highway, I did not bother trying to retrieve my GPS. Upset I lost my Garmin, I guess you get what you pay for.

Gets the job done.
I bought this to mount on a motorcycle. Mounted well. I did happen to notice the hinge pin had backed out of one side of the clamp. No problem...just a dab of super glue and good to go. I wish the grip of the clamp was a little tighter but this is made for a bicycle. Overall satisfied.

This mounting clip is very sturdy and the quality well exceeds the price point
This mounting clip is very sturdy and the quality well exceeds the price point. I was very impressed and would highly recommend the product to anyone who would like a phone mount for their bike. *update I purchased one of these clips for myself and another for my girlfriend. In an accident in which she flipped over her bike (shes fine, just a few scrapes and bruises) the clip was destroyed but the phone didn't even get a scratch, due to the nature of the breakage I am convinced that the clip saved her $500.00 iPhone. I am beyond sold on this item and purchased her a new one while she was still icing her wounds. I can't say enough good things about this product

Disappointed
It looks like it could be a good product for certain phones but that was not the case with my phone. I used it with a Note 2 with a zerolemon extended battery so the phone was definitely bulkier than normal but the best I could get was 2 somewhat strong contact points; never all four no matter how I tried to manipulate it. Phone fell off twice on the first use. Returning it.

can use on motorcycles
My use is for a Honda NHX110 elite. I mount it over the left hand grip by putting the bracket in the largest position and removing the rubber cushions that come with it. Very secure without removing or modifying handle bar grip. The spring clamp is strong, very strong. The ball lock is adequately strong but not ballistic....this is a consideration for bike use in bumpy conditions / no suspension. This is not a safety issue for your phone, the degrees of freedom on the ball lock is maybe 10-15 degrees. The fingers on the clamp are spaced far enough to accommodate a Moto E volume rocker and power button which are on the same side and have a nice red rubber pads for good contact surface.

Clamp is not secure enough and the phone tilts during the ride
On my first ride, my LG G4 phone flew off the handle when I hit a very small bump on the road. By some amazing stroke of luck, nothing happened to the phone. Being stubborn, I decided to attach the phone to the holder with a rubber band to keep it in place. This worked, but now I had a rubber band across my screen throughout the ride. The other problem is that once in place the phone would not stay vertical as I wanted it to. The holder has a universal joint that I could not tighten enough, so the phone was lose and would constantly tilt downwards through the ride.
