With the Universal Phone Holder, Zéfal presents a practical solution for all cyclists who want to have their smartphone securely attached to their bike during the tour. The universal holder is aimed at both cyclists and hikers who want their mobile device to be ready to hand at all times and yet securely stored. The mount has been designed so that it can remain permanently on the bike, which should be particularly practical for commuters or regular cyclists who do not want to remount the mount on every ride.
The Universal Phone Holder is attached using a robust yet flexible silicone strap that can be adapted to different handlebar diameters. The adjustable strap enables mounting on handlebars with a diameter of between 22 and 38 millimetres, which covers most standard handlebars. This makes the mount suitable for a wide variety of bike types, from city bikes to mountain bikes and road bikes.
It can be attached easily and without tools. The advantage of the silicone strap is that it moulds closely to the handlebars or stem, ensuring a non-slip hold. At the same time, the material protects the surface of the handlebars, as no scratches can be caused by hard materials or clamps.
A particular advantage of the Universal Phone Holder is its compatibility with different smartphone sizes and models. The adjustable clamp adapts to the dimensions of the respective device and is designed to provide a secure hold, regardless of whether it is a compact or a large-format smartphone. The clamp is designed so that the smartphone can be attached with a single movement and easily removed at traffic lights, for example. The display remains fully operable in the holder.
The rotatable design of the Universal Phone Holder is another practical aspect that makes it easier to use the smartphone while driving. The holder makes it possible to position the phone in both portrait and landscape format, depending on preference or the requirements of the app being used. This flexibility is particularly beneficial when using navigation apps, which often offer a better overview in landscape format, while other applications such as fitness trackers or music apps may be clearer in portrait format. Switching between formats can be done with one hand without removing the smartphone from the holder.
With dimensions of 75 x 40 x 65 millimetres and a weight of just 92 grams, the Universal Phone Holder blends unobtrusively into the bicycle equipment without appearing bulky. The compact design ensures that the holder can be mounted on the handlebars even when space is limited, for example next to a bike computer, bell or light. Despite its small size and light weight, the mount should be robust enough to withstand even the most demanding conditions.
