Who out there has lost a phone with either of these mounts?

@Ironhawx 3 года назад

Me! I got sick of the rubber band tethers and didn’t bother one time...paid for it soon enough

@RIDEAdventures 3 года назад

@@Ironhawx, ugh, not sure whether to thumbs-up or thumbs-down that note. Sorry to hear that happened, but yea, "on to better mounts" we guess. Thanks for sharing.

@MilkyRon 2 года назад

Thankfully, I didn't loose it but my phone kept falling out of the X-Grip mount. I'm not sure if it's made worse because I have mine mounted on an accessory bar so the phone is angled more vertically than it would be if mounted to the handlebars? Either way, thanks for the review, exactly the info I was looking for before purchasing the Quick-Grip.

@ChrisVonDoom83 2 года назад

I just watched my iPhone 12 Pro fly off my X-Grip.. Was doing about 120mph on my Ducati Monster so my aggressive riding is partially to blame 🤦🏿‍♂️ I digress ..here I am researching for a better solution to my phone mounting needs. I really don’t want to keep paying that insurance deductible to get a new phone every time I get the need for speed 😏

@57Jimmy Год назад

RAM-X… I’ve hated it from day one! The one I got has the ball integrated into the housing and is the WORST thing to adjust along with the bar clamp it came with. Yes, lost my phone on the trail, fortunately the wife was with me and used her phone to find mine 700 meters up the hill. That rubber band? The absolutely most useless thing on the planet! Ohh I hate this thing! On the plus side, I hacked it apart, ground that stupid ball down flush, shortened the existing screw from inside, screwed it onto another Ram ball, using a short arm and now I can swing it anywhere I want it. Before it was EXTREMELY limited. As for that rubber band? I’ld rather use duct tape!🤣 RAM Mounts are a great product, but someone really shite the bed on this one. The quick grip does look to be much better. I may just switch to it…MAY! $$$$

I’ve used a Ram X Grip without the rubber band on road for several years without issue. I’m sure using it off-road introduces another level of complexity. I am considering the Quad-lock system though since they now offer a vibration dampener.

@dylanyoung6654 Год назад

@Eternal Embers Quadlock does Apple, Samsung, Google, and Huawei. My issue rn with quadlock is they only offer the upgraded MAG case for my phone model so I am stuck paying more for a feature I will never use and its a bulkier case than the standard.. for me thats two downsides. I have a friend that uses quadlock and he says the only downside is lining up the back of the phone with the mount lol

Perfect timing on this video! I have a RAM X-Grip on my 2017 Indian Roadmaster, and it has worked just fine for slab traveling across the country. However, I also just purchased a 2021 Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro and plan to do some "rougher" riding than my Indian sees. So after googling around, I figured I'd do a search on RU-vid today and here you are. Thanks for the reviews, Eric, I just placed an order for the RAM Quick Grip and base.

There may be others out there as well, but didn't notice anything that compares to these two in my searches.

Thank you for this review. I had a very bad experience using the X mount on my Goldwing on a road trip from Pensacola, FL to Rhode Island. This was my first time using Ram products and also the first road trip that I used this. I had almost ALL of the issues you mentioned, literally from day one of my trip. It let go of my Galaxy S8 on I-40 North just south of Chattanooga and the phone got run over several times before I could safely recover it. Even with a sturdy case, it was destroyed. After that, I basically lost faith in the brand, but I've wanted to try out the Quick Grip. I'm ordering one today.

@frankmagowan7400 Год назад

No adhesive, no additional holes drilled & I can swap it from truck to truck in seconds.

Quick-grip is definitely the best one because you can use any phone case you want unlike the Rockport. on my Quick Grip I've added a 1/4 inch bungee cord to the top of the mount which I just pull up and over the phone I also have the ball on the back rubber mounted to take out vibration. Has worked Excellent for years.

@sulos4646 Год назад

I've been driving with the X Grip for many years now, I can say from experience that it depends very much on the weight of the phone how and whether it falls out. For rather heavy devices, you should definitely use the rubber band.

@RIDEAdventures 3 года назад

Okay, good to know, sincerely thanks for sharing. We need that feedback, the whole market needs to know if these things are causing camera damage. (We had 1 Rental Customer say the same thing.) Previously only the Quad Lock was being accused of vibration damage, so this is good info.

Hey guys thanks for the great video. I'm usually never "that guy", but I just found the Tackform "Enduro Motorcycle Phone Mount" while poking around for a dirtbike phone mount. I've ran a lot of stuff on the front of my bike (GPS, paper and digital roadbooks, etc) but never a phone. Since you guys had the only review I could find with actual dirt, I was curious if you'd seen this mount. It looks quality, but minimalist as well. Maybe too minimalist? Great Oregon footage as well, I've lived in Bend twice in the past (going into the 90s) and my avatar is a 10 year old shot from me in the Steens.

@RIDEAdventures 3 года назад

Justin, your name appears familiar from Facebook groups around Bend. -- We'd never seen the Tackform before you mentioned it, but it appears to rely on the same/similar rubber band-on-4-corners concept that the Ram X-Grip relies on. Perhaps you noticed in the video, our disappointment with said rubber bands. If you try one out, please let us know what you think, and thanks for commenting.

@JustinSmithWY 3 года назад

@@RIDEAdventures yeah they make a big deal about how secure it is, and then it seems like everybody defaults to the rubber band. If I can figure out how to adapt in a reasonable way from my C-sized RAM ball to the 1" B-sized one, they have a model with just the phone clamp and a ball on the back that would work well. I'll give it a try. re: Bend, yeah I think you are a member of Moto Bend, which doesn't get much traction these days but I started it years ago when I was there last.

RAM though, is an extremely flexible and reliable mounting system of its own, and I love it. X-grip is shit, though.

@Liberty4Ever 3 года назад

I didn't consider the X Grip. It wasn't a design I would have expected from RAM Mount. Basically, it's a spring loaded phone mount that isn't secure enough for road use, with an added rubber band to make it barely secure enough for road use, it you don't hit a pothole. Read the one star reviews on Amazon from people with lost or smashed phones. What an embarrassment for RAM Mount. I bought the Quick Grip after verifying that it would barely fit my Samsung phone in the Otterbox case. YMMV. Even then, I had to belt sand a tiny amount off one set of the hooks. It's a tight enough fit that it's not all that quick, but it is very secure... and it's still quicker than the X Grip rubber bands and spring loaded bobbin nonsense.

Quadlock is good option, but you have to use certain case or glue quadlock universal mount to the phone/phone case. With quickgrip you can use your phone as is. Another thing to consider is phone protection- quickgrip defends the phone from incoming rocks, branches etc (the camera lense is not covered with quadlock). I switched to quickgrip after the quadlock broke after some tumble over the bars, quickgrip have seen some falls as well, but still holding strong. One other thing is that you can glue thin QI charger on quickgrip . Note to the quickgrip users: i recommend turning the mount upside down, because otherwise the spring-operated latching mechanism could full send the phone straight down to the ground.

@@RIDEAdventures they also have a new powered option. But as you know, I´m a big fan of a proper gps. ;-)

I use x grip in my truck and wouldn’t trust it on a bike

@theMekanik 3 года назад

You don’t have to use the rubber band, I bought mine before they gave that thing. Like 10 years ago, but I use it in the car 🚗 💁🏻‍♂️

@RIDEAdventures 3 года назад

Yep, big difference between riding in the car vs. adventure riding.

Ha! Ha! 1:14 ... My X-Grip let me down but in all fairness I was not using the tether: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CcRUkgAGi6A.html I have been using the QuickGrip since.

Want a review of your neck piece. Hell is that bro?

@RIDEAdventures 2 года назад

Hah, definitely an Alpinestars Neck Brace, not a toilet seat : ) Seems like a great product that makes total sense, and could truly protect someone. Hope I never have to fully confirm that : )

I tested ram xgrip and stem mount on my GSXR. It does the job but ram xgrip is a poorly designed universal phone holder. It holds the phone in place but the stem mount is bad designed (you have to cut yourself the mounting insert to install it into the stem and it self destroys after the first turn of the nut...), does not lock in place and it touches the aluminum stem with the risk of scrathces. The x grip does its job but looks weak and woobly, the rubber holder looks like it is going to break only if you stare at it... I bought it and returned. Better consider other brands such as SP Connect or Quadlock.
