Quad Loc Phone Holder?
« on: March 04, 2022, 08:22:19 am »
Wondering if anyone here uses one? I would need to use the 3M stick on part as I don't have the "right" phone.

Excellent product.  Not familiar with the 3m stick on part but the regular case on to the bike mount is quality.

While a bit bulkier than the Quad Loc, Ram Mount https://www.rammount.com/ makes a holder for all kinds of things, including phones.  I have used them for about a decade and have had no issues whatsoever with their products.  The thing I like about that is that all their parts are inter-changable and that they are super super secure, i.e. motorcycle trail riders use them and the phones stay on.

Have you gone to their website?  They sell a universal fit case as well as cases for IPhone, Galaxy, Pixel, and Huawei.  I have a case for IPhone and it is very secure.

I have looked at the site. The Universal is the 3M sticky Mount.

IMO It’s junk… I used mine for part of one tour and tossed it out. Also, buyer beware, the first time I ordered from them they sent me an empty box and had to open a claim with my bank to get a refund before I reordered. Just to toss it.

I've been using them for the past 3 years on my daily commute. My first phone (Samsung S5) didn't have a specific cover by Quadlock so I bought an Otterbox and attached the mount with the 3M tape they provided. That mount was used until 6 months ago with zero problems. I'm now using the same bike mount with the 3rd phone. It's easy and secure, smooth roads, rough gravel or chunky off road!

Enjoy the ride,

Different product, but has anyone tried the Rokform V4 Pro Series Bike Mount? Any thoughts on this or the Quad Loc vs. the rokform would be appreciated.

Ditto - though this has two levels of security to keep it from popping out. If I'm using the camera for photos, I'll often bring my Garmin eTrex to keep me on route.

I haven't compared, but I have been using the Rokform for about 8 years.  It is a "rok" solid system ;-) 
You do have to use the whole system though for it to work but their cases are excellent not to large but still very protective.  I have used the case on all my phones regardless of whether or not I am doing a tour and using the bike mount.

 I purchased the Rokform and it's rock solid on mountain bike. Plus, i like the tether as a safe fail. Case has a nice feel on my iphone. In addition, the handle bar mount (sold separately) is nice too.

I took the plunge and also got the Rokform, and am a very satisfied with it.  It locks in, and doesn't budge.  It doesn't take up real estate on my handlebar. And you can adjust the viewing angle.  Great product.
