Hello everyone,

I have a Samsung Galaxy note which is a rather large phone. I am looking for suggestion about handlebar holders you have tried and liked.

Quad Lock is our choice. Combined with the QL case or the adhesive adapter, these things have been *Lock* steady (he he) over thousands of miles of cyclo-touring (off and on-road). And no, we do not work for Quad Lock.

We realize it is pricey but one needs to keep in mind how valuable one's mobile phone is (beyond just the initial price). One's mobile device serves so many purposes.

Good luck,

I use a RokForm case which has a twistlock similar to the Quad Lock. It also has an backup lanyard and a magnet for use in the car with the car mount. The twistlock on the bike can be a bar mount (which I have) or a threadless stem mount. I have an iPhone, but they also make a Samsung version.

Another vote for the Quadlock. I use their out-front mount and attach my headlight to the GoPro mount underneath. Never had any problems with the mount in several years of use over all sorts of road surfaces.

Quad lock ... especially if you are moving phone between bikes. I have a mount on my Clem and on my recumbent and it doesn't get any easier. Rock solid connection and the case only adds a bit of depth to the phone itself.

Robert, I just updated a post I had done on the Quad Lock mount on my Albatross bars. FWIW.

For those of you interested (Quad Lock Curious), I balked at the price of the QL and accessories for a few years then got one on a Black Friday Sale last year.

Really good system; I like it.

That time is here again: Black Friday (early) and they've sent out the notice of 30% off:

Check out https://www.quadlockcase.com/

BTW, the little kickstand/finger loop accessory (that you might not notice on the site) has been very useful to me. The bump/socket on the back otherwise destabilizes the case when you set the phone down on a flat surface.
