Mounting Your iPhone On Your Bike From Biologic

If you are athletic and ride your bike as part of your exercise routine, having the ability to attach your iPhone and use its features would add to the benefits of your exercise. Since the iPhone has built in GPS, you could add a few apps to your iPhone and take advantage of addition information which you could capture. All that you would need is the ability to attach it to your handle bars where a quick glance down and you see the screen for information. But, given the vibrations that you normally have when riding, you would also need to cushion the phone.

A company call Biologic has provided a Bike Mount that works with the current iPhone 5. And they also have a mount which will fit the very popular iPhone 4. One of the key features which they are providing is cushioning to protect your iPhone. The RidgeSeal case design will protect your iPhone from the weather and things that get kicked up as you ride. Installation is quick and easy as demonstrated in the video below. Once installed, you can rotate and pivot your iPhone to the spot that works best for you. And they have allowed for a hole for the rear camera so that you can take pictures while you ride.

While you can pick from a number of different apps to track your ride, Biologic recommends the BikeBrain app on the iTunes store as a "Free App". This will provide you information as you are riding in real time. The real time includes speed, time, distance which are the items that you would expect to see. The app also tracks your ride on a map so you can see where you have been. There are other iPhone apps in the market which are very similar, so look for the one that best fits your needs.

Providing mounts for Android phones is far more difficult given all the variations in size, so they do support very few of the Android smart phones. The Galaxy S3 and Motorola Razor are two popular phones which are not supported. But, if you are part of the iPhone crowd, you are going to find exactly what you need for taking your iPhone with you on a bike ride. Prices vary on this product, so look around for the best price you can find.
