Show Me Handlebar Phone Mounts.
In readiness for our upcoming trip, I fancy getting a bar mounted phone holder.
Obviously want a safe, waterproof one.
Watcha got?

Re: Show Me Handlebar Phone Mounts.
If your phone has OIS or any kind of mechanical focus/zoom (rather than a digital one), like a lot of high end phones do these days... then solidly mounting it to a vibrating bike will proper fuck up the camera.

Ball mount in steering stem / nut, add quadmount, profit.
You also need to top off your brake fluid

And thanks for being observant. Just whipped top off and it's right on the full mark.
