Evening everyone,
I'm struggling to find a smart phone holder thats in stock online for my smallframe, going to be using my iPhone 5SE's map functions and it would be proper handy to have a decent phone holder,
Looking for that that fixes into the brackets under the headset ,
Has anyone got one recently that they could send me a link too?
And if you have got one, how are they with vibrations?
- Harry

Use a piece of stainless to make an adapter that bolts to your headset brackets and provides a mounting hole for the a RAM mount. You'll just need a hacksaw, file and a drill.

I'm a bit of a tight arse .
I use the cheap sports / jogging arm bands with velcro when using Maps on IPhone , they are water proof and adjustable.
You can either place around handle bars or if you have spare tyre on leg shield put around top.
Works fine without any modifications , you can also use it for GPS speedo ;-)

Put it in your pocket and listen to the directions via Bluetooth ear plugs , you could probably mount them in the helmet or find small ones that will fit in your ear under the helmet

does anyone else remember the days when us riders could buy a pair of trousers with a pocket on the front of the upper leg. these had a piece of plastic sawn on the front so you could put your map in the pocket and look at it while you were riding along ok till it got really wet  a bit like these |

movin64 - That's what I've been doing up until this point. I think the option that suits me best is what Mark said with the spare wheel holder, cheers Mark and to all who have made suggestions.

movin64- I can't stand the feeling of earplugs in whilst I have a helmet on, proper throws me off!
