No more routing around in my 49l top case to find my phone!


I invested a whopping 99p (including delivery from China!) in this:

Nice job!  But it looks a little small for the larger smartphones, I think my iPhone 6S Plus would not be completely covered by the cargo net.  My aerostich jacket has a special front pocket for it, so I'll stick with that for now.


This holder might work well for the owner's manual too.

You may be right about the 6S+


The handbook fits well though

Or you could put your Nav V there, instead of locking it into the holder  :whistle:

One of the many benefits of having a 2nd hand car TOMTOM... I don't have to worry about it, or lock it. It's only worth about a tenner!

... and if it gets stolen (loaded with your carefully planned routes) in the middle of a two week continental tour, it's not expensive to carry a back-up.

I'm looking to get a bar mounted phone holder. Would be nice to skip over Pandora songs or change stations/artists without fishing through my chest pocket and possibly fumble the the phone.
