RAM Mounts X-Grip Phone Mount Motorcycle Handlebar Clamp Black

The RAM Mounts X-Grip Phone Mount Motorcycle Handlebar Clamp (black) is a motorcycle-specific holder that replaces one M8 bolt head on the handlebar clamp to position a phone centrally. The system uses a handlebar clamp base with M8 threads, a double socket arm and a spring-loaded X-Grip cradle mounted on RAM's 1" diameter rubber ball-and-socket system, allowing a wide range of adjustment and secure attachment for smartphones.

Advantages

The design provides near-infinite adjustment via double socket arm joints and the patented 1" rubber ball-and-socket connection. The X-Grip cradle holds devices firmly with its four-leg, spring-loaded mechanism without covering the phone with foam pads or bulky plastic. A tether is included for extra security in outdoor and riding conditions. The clamp base integrates into existing M8 handlebar clamp hardware for a clean, centered mount.

Suitable for

• Mounting a smartphone on motorcycle handlebars
• Using navigation or ride apps while riding
• Hands-free access to phone controls during stops

How to use

Remove one M8 bolt head from your handlebar clamp and install the M8-threaded clamp base in its place, then attach the double socket arm to the base using the rubber ball-and-socket joint. Mount the X-Grip cradle onto the opposite ball joint and tighten the socket joints to secure the chosen angle. Expand the X-Grip cradle, place your smartphone (with case if applicable) into the four-leg grips, and release the spring so the grips hold the device. Attach the included tether for added security if needed.

Recommendations

Verify your phone’s overall dimensions including any case, sleeve, or skin to ensure it fits the X-Grip cradle. Periodically check and retighten socket joints and clamp hardware to maintain a secure mounting while riding.
