Of coarse, you put out this video hours after I order a new case for my pixel 8, ugh. Could have used that discount 😂

Bought 3 on Temu for 8 bucks. Exactly the same. One on my GS, one on my pedalbike and one on my GT2 Segway. ZERO ISSUES over 2 years later. 60 cents worth of plastic, 100 bucks for marketing.

@07:03 This kind of convo between CC and CC2.0 are just hilarious and funny lol. Loved the whole video, I mean Ad 🤣

Quadlock are good, I have been using them for years on my bikes & car. Peak design are so much more slick though & have the vibration dampener built it & not a clunky add-on. Moved over to Peak design a year ago & don’t regret it at all.

Ive the handlebar mount, with damper, on my Triumph 1050 Speed Triple. Works great. Will be adding the waterproof charging head when i do some longer distances.

I call BS on the 0.69 seconds it takes me like 45 tries lol

The maglock works brilliantly as well to watch videos. Whilst working on my bike. Just stick it to the tool cabinet and it works a dream. The vibration damper is also a must

I've got the vibration dampener and weatherproof wireless charger on my bike and the normal wireless charger in my car. I've never used a case on my phones in the past, so the quadlock was my first phone case, and I've loved it entirely. zero complaints, other than that they added the magnetic mounts after my pixel 6 came out, so they don't make one for that, just the normal cases. When I eventually replace my phone though, I will definitely be upgrading to the magnetic in the car.

To add onto Chapter 5, there have been... 3 bad accidents where I had my phone on the handlebar. 1. Honda Shadow 1100, had a highside after locking up rear wheel, and even though I controlled the side to side sliding, once that rear wheel got traction again I was flung. Phone stayed on the mount. 2. Same bike, lowside, was stupid, lane changed in post-rain conditions and front tire "washed out" on slick white paint. Phone was still on handlebars. 3. Worst crash (drunkard turned left, hitting my right side, totaled my bike and my right lower peg, and no.. drunkard didn't have a turn signal on. "10 Points for Gryffindor" -if you can guess what kind of vehicle the drunk was driving. KLR650 2022, one Quadlock phone mount on handlebars, and another Quadlock phone mount (using the small diameter) on the bar behind windshield. My phone was still on, and had my Bridge Pass been on the other mount it would have been on too (it was inside my jacket). Point being: Quadlock is stupidly secure (I do wish their handlebar mounts still used the two C's/U's and not a hinge on one side now. Kind of limits the diameters a mount can be on and still have even surface contact/tension.)

I know this is sponsored and QuadLock is Australian, so it makes sense you gravitate towards them. But PLEASE give Peak Design's solution a try. I had QL Pro Stem mount and switched to Peak Design instead for these reasons: The case itself is waaay less bulky The QL mounting system can be difficult to line up correctly, whereas PD aligns with magnets and snaps in instantly. With QL, the vibration dampener is separate and huge. On PD it's a part of the mount itself. In the little less than a year I had the QL Pro mount, the black anodizing faded a lot and some screws had rusted. In the little less than a year I've now had the PD, there's been nothing to note. The only advantage I see QL has over PD, which I have gotten confirmation from the CEO of PD is in the works, is the wireless charging.

I've had my same ram mount for over 2 years! It's never once even came close to failing me! And I ride one of the highest vibration bikes you can get! 2022 KTM SMCR it holds on just perfect even at 110+MPH

Mt07? That's new

got one when i started riding a little while ago. so good for using things like calimoto and spotify, although admittedly illegal it's easy to just click next on your phone. recently got a cardo and can use voice commands now but do need to speak in a british way for it to understand me

Awesome paid video, you really made it work and I enjoyed viewing it a lot! Would be great to have a more in detail and close look on how each mount option grabs to the bike, For the price tag I always fear "what if it doesn't fit my handle bar". Their website is awful when it comes to those details ( not your fault) but they barely include real pictures or videos on how to mount it but instead a shitload of ads and info on who are their embassadors, like if Piastri images will help us... And btw, I didn't saw you on the R1 as embassador 😂😂😂

Quadlock is noice but expensive af

Love ya bruh ! I finally after watching you state quad lock is the best and as of now yes it, is ur exactly right keep bringing me ur quality videos as all of them are ❤

i bought my quadlock set this week, the fork mount pro. some things I dont like are 1. adding the vibration damper makes it ugly because its too tall. so I removed mine and it looks sleeker, sadly i will sacrifice my old phones camera for it. I used the dampener a bit with my new iphone 15 pro but got scared after reading that even with the dampener, it can still break. 2. not a lot of selection for phone cases. I would like to use a cheap phone as dedicated gps but I am stuck with the ugly universal mount (samsung a53). also I read that the 3m doesnt actually stick to just any case like tpu, rubber, etc so just a heads up.

How do you combat the wind noise if you’re going hard on your bike?

Im a ram mount guy, but where did the mt07 come from?

Does it come with the case? If not, How do I will attach in my actual case?

Have a look into Peak Design. I got sick of fumbling trying to twist my phone onto the mount when it just won't line up. As an Australian I love Quad Lock. But Peak design is so much better with a much nicer, thinner cases. But like twice as expensive xD

I'll say the mount is great, the vibration reducer is great, the case locking system is great, trying to get the case to click to the base while the vibration reducer fights makes me take 10 seconds to like up right.

0.69 Nice. I just realized that I've never seen you without a hat, lookin sharp friend.

I'm using SP Connect. It's basically the same thing but without the tab. Only downside is that I can't change the orientation of my phone but other than that, it's just as good. :). And way easier to buy here in Sweden.

This is up there with Fortnine levels of funny infortmative advertising. Scooter/Motorcycle mirror mount with anti vibration and wireless charging on the windscreen support bar on my Tenere 700, spot on even riding fast on corrugations. I just wish the 10% code had been 2 weeks earlier.

my friend tried many brands before getting quad lock and he said quad lock is the best of all, not that every one of them are bad. It is just that quad lock IS the best.

Did you changes the colors of the wheel of the R1? Looking fire!!

Excellent Advert 😂 it’s so well done.🎉

I personally use Shapeheart magnetic mounts on my one cylinder motorcycle and it’s been over a year and no damage to the phone or camera.

Hilarious 😂😂 and I can only agree.. I’d be lost without my quad lock. Literally!

I've got a doubt, My Aprilia RS457 will be delivered in a few weeks, it has hexagonal fork stem hole. Which mount will fit for that? I saw people having issues with hexagonal fork stem holes.

I got quad lock. I love it. but SP Connect is superior. If you already have quad lock, stick with it, but if you don´t: buy SP connect. It does everything quadlock does but better and more slick.

I have the Peak Design mount, it's way better, as secure, quicker to operate and has a built in dampener that is a lot smaller as well 😊

my work gets a FAT discount on quadlock thankfully. got my full setup for like $60 and ive been hella happy with it!

Been using quadlock since i got my first motorcycle absolut brilliant product and worth every Penny. Seen a video where a turbo busa was going 370kph and had a Phone mounted with a quadlock mount and it hold Up😅😂

I've never been able to attach the phone to the lock in less than 10 seconds. Other people say that's about right. I had the finger ring, and my finger wouldn't fit through it. Finally, the iPhone case fell apart in about 1 year, with the sides with the buttons gaping out so I couldn't press the buttons and I worried about the phone shaking out of the case when I rode. So I tried another brand, and I'm happier.

these types of phone mounts are way better

I also love my quadlock! Super practical! :D

Im still using the old ram mount with the four rubber ends on the two metal arms with the rubber lanyard thing.. im seriously thinking of changing my phone mount now though as my latest phone keeps triggering on when the rubber feet touch the side buttons.

bro looks like the guy they would get to play michael fassbender in a movie about michael fassbender. anyway, great videos! thanks for the info!

Generic phone mount is an X-Grip. I switched to Quad Lock because my X-Grip called emergency services while I was riding and I got into a bit of trouble.

Is there a way to tell / proof that the dampener does not damage the phone?

Vibration dampener is a must if it actually works. I haven't tested it myself, but QuadLock mounted on moto tank without any dampening completely ruined the stabilization of my (backup) phone. So don't mount your main phone on a non dampened QuadLock mount.

I just like my leather case and haven’t had an issue with ram mounts yet. Hate the idea of having to rock that case forever. I get a free replacement case from bullstrap every 6 months.

My buddy uses quadlock on his motorcycle..I have the SP Connect and I think it away better than quadlock. My buddy even like my SP connect setup better than his Quadlock.

Quadlock is good but Mous, in my opinion, is better! Quadlock became infamous for the damage their mounts were doing to the optical systems on phones and still provide the vibration dampening solution as an added extra. It comes as standard on a lot of mounts now, Mous included.

I just got a cheap Aliexpress Carplay mount. Works much better and no risk of breaking my OIS

4:11 I ride like that. And that's totally fine: remembering the way, the milestones, navigating by using experience and intuition. "Riding by the phone" makes people stupid. Like, i could multiply big numbers with ease when i was at school, now i'll struggle to avoid using the phone to do like "18*12" Also, i bet there's no mounts for any phone but iphone and samsung ) and i bet the single mount kit for a bike will cost more then my phone )

Has anyone made good experiences with the shock absorber? I saw another yt video on how it doesn't really protect the camera as well as it should... My neighbor broke his cam on the iPhone 13 pro with the quad lock (without the absorber).

Oh, it's sponsored, I'm out

LOL! I'm soooooooooo happy you finally got a decent bike! 🤣🤣🤣 Speed isn't everything!

takes me at least 10 seconds to attach my phone. I drop my phone a lot using the quadlock case, it's so slick for some reason.

The Locks might be doing there job of ‘locking’ in a phone, but phones are not designed for ‘this’ purpose like constant vibration. Due to the cameras these days having stabilisation sensors that are very sensitive and will quickly break if exposed to vibrations for a long ride. Save yourself the money and phone 😅

You forgot about the heat. The mounts only hold your phone but expose it to excessive heat, which could damage the phone's battery.

Dont work for the 2015 zx10 steering dampaner gets in the way of stem

I have the mount.........but they dont do anything for the Samsung Flip 5 phone

I have handlebar mount on my MT07 2024 and Iphone 15 Pro Max , my mount slipped and phone was almost hitting the bike. What can I do and does anybody else have the same problem?

I have 1 mount I use between 2 motorcycles with the Ram Ball and 1 for my bicycle.

I like my SPconnect. That and quad lock is not available in my country lol.

i definitely need that one 😊

Ok. I watched the ad. But my phone will continue to live in my pocket.

I use a quad lock "clone" I payed 3$ on AliExpress. Works exactly the same...note that I don't need a vibration damper as the phone cam was already broken 😂 I may switch to an induction charging though...a real quad lock if I can find a cheap clone this time. Because, yes : the idea is great...but the pricing is just ridiculous...😮

I bought a black release lever to replace the ghastly blue one that doesn't match any bike.

quad lock has better systems to attach it to the bike but i like the mous system and case better so i just used Ram parts to attach the mous system

I had a ram mount like the one you showed me.I dropped my vstrom making a u turn on a dirtroad the firsttime I usedit and the mount broke . 🤬

If I could push a button that would delete every smart phone from the face of the earth, I probably would. 2:57 "...but it's impossible to fly a drone and ride a motorcycle at the same time." Itchy Boots just left the chat.

My imitation RAM mount has a wireless charger built in. Can Quad Lock charge a phone?

Quad Lock makes no case for my Red Hydrogen One, so, no, however interesting it is.

They dont make cases for xiaomi and i dont want to use the universal thing :( But if they made for them, i would buy it in a heartbeat

yeah just another sponsor video okay

Don't we already get enough Quad Lock ads?

Love my Ram Mount X-Grip. Simply THE BEST. No ugly case on my phone. Never had problems loosing phone. No vibration issues. No need for dampeners. Can even attach camera on ball when not using phone. Don’t need Allen wrenches to adjust, just my fingers. I can use it to squeeze my GPS unit if I want to. Can choose long arm, short arm, multiple ball arms. The installation options are endless when you go with RAM. I think that more than 7 now… but I could go on and on.

if they would make a case for my phone I'd buy one

The one thing I wish I had known beforehand is that if you buy a magsafe case from them, you can no longer charge your iPhone via magsafe... -.-

Not gonna lie... i bought my last phone mainly because it had a QuadLock case... but i havent bought it yet and now i'm seriously considering an android auto screen instead

We need that mt_07 review bruh , one of the best bikes out there tbh.😏

Are you from south africa?? Your accent sounds so familiar

I have SP connect with anti vibration system and charging system as well, but I have to admit quad lock is better

Okay, but, can we get this in SA?

Lost my phone on the motorway today.I have a quad lock mount and the phone was secured.

Peak design is better - lifetime warranty..and I didn’t get paid to review either brands

Sp Connect is so much better, and isn t in a colour that sicks out and is not so big. And it holds your phone also up to 300km/h

LOL.. you do not need your phone mounted to your bike to use google maps.. Having a comms system like Cardo and it will give you step by step voice directions.

I like the guy in 2011 has a bike from the future. Guess we know why he went back... Tell past him to start the channel in this direction to improve his future.

Until Quadlock(or ANY phone mount) can guarantee that my phone's camera won't break from the vibrations, I won't use any of them. I have known people that used quadlock and their cameras get ruined by the vibrations. The newer iphones are very sensitive to continuous vibrations.

Quad lock was never option for me because i use a cover with kickstand

But they make cases for like 3 phones, and the universal mount is junk

Aww man I really didn't want to know all that

If they had a clear case I would have bought into their ecosystem. Ended up with rokform instead

I’d wouldn’t fall off riding fast through the desert on my dirt bike?

I'm sure Ryan would be honoured to know you watch him in the shower.

I paid $60 for my ram mount and lost 2 phones because of it on the highway 😡

New Bike?

looked at them a couple of years ago... expensive, few phone models mostly high and few moto options. nothing changed. done with them

Fun fact, you can actually retrofit the bike mount to the car.

Getting it on is like pluggin in USB 2.0. you have to try, twist and retry it at least 3 times. I would say 0,69s is scripted and tried 400 times :D

Personally i find SP connect way better

I hit a deer and crashed at 60mph last summer. My phone stayed in the RAM mount, and was still there when the paramedics arrived. How exactly is that "not cutting it" for motorcycles? Be a shill if you like, but don't lie to us.

I cant stand it when RU-vidrs I quite like start doing these shameful sponsored videos which are boring as fuck...
