Featuring a spring-loaded X-grip that fits phones from 1.875" to 3.25" wide, a versatile U-bolt base for handlebars 0.5" to 1.25" in diameter, and a medium-length double socket arm with ball and socket technology for infinite adjustability. Made from marine-grade aluminum and stainless steel, it offers exceptional durability and is backed by a lifetime warranty. Includes an optional tether and glue for rubber caps, ensuring your device stays secure even on the roughest rides. ## Description Product description Product Description The RAM-B-149Z-UN7U consists of a zinc coated u-bolt base, double socket arm and universal X-Grip cradle. Included in this package is hardware that will accommodate rails from 0.50" to 1.25" in diameter. The base includes black cover caps to be placed over the exposed ends of the u-bolt. The mount is designed with a RAM 1" diameter patented rubber ball and socket system that has adjustment points at both ends of the double socket arm; this allowing for almost infinite adjustment and perfect viewing angles. The included composite rail adapter can narrow the rail to a minimum width of 0.5". The spring loaded X-Grip cradle expands and contracts, allowing for a perfect custom fit of your cell phone. The X-Grip includes a device tether recommended for outdoor applications. The cradle is compatible with handheld devices that will fit the dimensions listed below. It is important to verify the dimensions of your handheld device with a case/sleeve/skin when determining the overall size. Near-infinite adjustability The benefit of the RAM system is the modular and highly adjustable components so you can have the exact mount you want and position it to your preference. Technical Specifications Review: Excellent mount, buy from Semsons & Co., Inc. to ensure you get the tether-read my comments below. - Bought this for my 98 electra glide. Works great so far. A couple of things: After reading reviews about not getting tether, I wanted to make sure whoever I got mine from included this. I saw Semsons & Co., Inc. had 100% feedback, so I called their customer service number and the woman I spoke with confirmed that they only sell original RAM products packaged by RAM with everything that is included. So I went ahead and ordered from them. I received my package on time and everything (including the tether) was included. So those reading the reviews I highly recommend Semson's to buy from so you don't have to worry about not getting everything. Next thing is the rubber feet. Many stated they fell off or that the included glue didn't work. I had some crazy glue so I used that. The feet are on there nice and solid and after crazy gluing, I feel they will stay in place. I didn't bother using the included glue. Just my suggestion. Next thing are the nylon bolts. Many said they were junk, painted poorly, etc. I think they are fine for what you get. Just be sure to use the proper socket to install them and be careful when putting them on. Mine came new (not used), they installed fine, and none of the paint came off. If I had a con for this mount, it is that like many stated, I had to also move my phone down slightly in the mount so that the upper right foot did not rest on the side buttons. When I first put it in, it rested right on my power button and my phone turned off. After moving it slightly it is now fine and the foot is no longer resting on any of the side buttons (MOTO E 2nd gen). I know that this may concern you seeing the phone isn't centered in the mount, but with the tether it was held in secure. I only got to use it on one ride so far (3hr ride), but it stayed in place and didn't move at all. The only other minor con is that RAM doesn't include any mounting/installation instructions, only a brochure for other products and a one page picture brochure explaining how to use the tether. It isn't rocket science to install it and common sense should be all that you need to figure it out, but for those that rely on instructions, they might not be pleased. Overall I am satisfied with this mount and would not hesitate to buy one in the future. Now I just need to figure out which beverage mount I want to get for the other side of the handlebars. Review: Perfect - This is hands down the most perfect phone mount I have ever purchased. Easy to install on any bike you ride and will hold securely at highway (and faster) speeds multiple hours and days at a time. Great even on crappy Oklahoma roads or windy Arizona highways. ## Features - Spring-loaded 'X' design with rubber caps sports great holding power without hiding your phone; includes optional device tether for peace of mind during rugged use - Includes U-bolt base that accommodates rails from .5" to 1.25" in diameter and a medium length, B size RAM double socket arm; ball and socket technology allows for near-infinite adjustability - Made of powder-coated, marine-grade aluminum, stainless steel components, and high-strength composite for durability and reliability in the most demanding environments - Phone Holder Dimensions: Width Range: 1.875" - 3.25", Depth Range: .875" max; Clamp Range: 0.5" - 1.25" diameter - Backed by a lifetime warranty ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B006X387ZS | | Additional Features | Adjustable, Heavy Duty | | Arm Length | 3 Inches | | Best Sellers Rank | #191 in GPS Vehicle Mounts | | Brand | RAM MOUNTS | | Built-In Media | (1) Optional Tether (1) Glue Tube for Rubber Caps (1) 1/4"-20 U-Bolt for .5" - 1" Rails (1) 1/4"-20 U-Bolt for 1" - 1.25" Rails (2) 1/4"-20 Nylock Nuts (2) Rubber Caps (1) U-Bolt Spacer | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Smartphones | | Compatible Phone Models | Apple iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 13 Pro, iPhone 13 mini, iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 12 mini iPhone 11 Pro, iPhone 11, iPhone Xr, iPhone Xs, iPhone X, Google Pixel 7, Pixel 5, Pixel XL, Pixel, Motorola moto X4, moto X2, moto g7 power, moto g6, moto g5s plus, moto e4, Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3, Galaxy Z Fold2, Galaxy S25, Galaxy S24, Galaxy S23, Galaxy S22 Ultra, Galaxy S21 Ultra, Galaxy S21 5G, Galaxy S21, Galaxy S20, Galaxy S10e, Galaxy S10+, Galaxy S10, Galaxy S9+, Galaxy S9, Galaxy S8+, Galaxy S7, Galaxy S6, Galaxy Note 20, Galaxy Note 10, Galaxy Note 8 + More Compatible Phone Models Apple iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 13 Pro, iPhone 13 mini, iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 12 mini iPhone 11 Pro, iPhone 11, iPhone Xr, iPhone Xs, iPhone X, Google Pixel 7, Pixel 5, Pixel XL, Pixel, Motorola moto X4, moto X2, moto g7 power, moto g6, moto g5s plus, moto e4, Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3, Galaxy Z Fold2, Galaxy S25, Galaxy S24, Galaxy S23, Galaxy S22 Ultra, Galaxy S21 Ultra, Galaxy S21 5G, Galaxy S21, Galaxy S20, Galaxy S10e, Galaxy S10+, Galaxy S10, Galaxy S9+, Galaxy S9, Galaxy S8+, Galaxy S7, Galaxy S6, Galaxy Note 20, Galaxy Note 10, Galaxy Note 8 + More See more | | Compatible with Vehicle Type | ATV, Automobile, Motorcycle | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 8,235 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Marine-grade aluminum High strength composite Stainless steel | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00793442938962 | | Item Dimensions | 5.75 x 3.25 x 2.75 inches | | Item Type Name | Cradles | | Item Weight | 326 Grams | | Manufacturer | RAM MOUNTS | | Mfr Part Number | RAM-B-149Z-UN7U | | Model Name | RAM MOUNTS RAM-B-149Z-UN7U | | Model Number | RAM-B-149Z-UN7U | | Mounting Type | Handlebar | | Special Feature | Adjustable, Heavy Duty | | UPC | 611104323713 793442933318 079344293331 654484909764 793442938962 | | Warranty Description | Manufacturer | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | | Weight Capacity Maximum | 2 Pounds | ## Product Details - **Brand:** RAM MOUNTS - **Color:** Black - **Compatible Devices:** Smartphones - **Mounting Type:** Handlebar ## Images ![RAM MOUNTS X-Grip Phone Mount with Handlebar U-Bolt Base, B Size 1" Ball Medium Arm, Motorcycle, ATV/UTV & Bike Mount RAM-B-149Z-UN7U - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51U0MWUVchL.jpg) ![RAM MOUNTS X-Grip Phone Mount with Handlebar U-Bolt Base, B Size 1" Ball Medium Arm, Motorcycle, ATV/UTV & Bike Mount RAM-B-149Z-UN7U - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51wsFPa3cPL.jpg) ![RAM MOUNTS X-Grip Phone Mount with Handlebar U-Bolt Base, B Size 1" Ball Medium Arm, Motorcycle, ATV/UTV & Bike Mount RAM-B-149Z-UN7U - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51NRIVFtRGL.jpg) ![RAM MOUNTS X-Grip Phone Mount with Handlebar U-Bolt Base, B Size 1" Ball Medium Arm, Motorcycle, ATV/UTV & Bike Mount RAM-B-149Z-UN7U - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Mml6j0DyL.jpg) ![RAM MOUNTS X-Grip Phone Mount with Handlebar U-Bolt Base, B Size 1" Ball Medium Arm, Motorcycle, ATV/UTV & Bike Mount RAM-B-149Z-UN7U - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/614UZN6w6VL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will it hold a note 5** A: I use a Note 4 which is the same size.

Easy to install on any bike you ride and will hold securely at highway (and faster) speeds multiple hours and days at a time. Great even on crappy Oklahoma roads or windy Arizona highways. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ram mount *by D***M on September 28, 2016* I think the Ram mount is a little expensive, but it works great! It took me a long time to pull the trigger on this, and I did only after a lot of research on-line. So, for the $50 I paid for this, it works great! The mounting to the handlebar is straight forward with an 11mm wrench. I wish it came with a second mounting option for the dashboard so I didn't have to spend another $40 for a second mount just to get the base. Anyway, the arm can be completely articulated to pretty much any viewing angle, up high or lower, left right, or wherever you desire. The X Grip is great, it squeezes my phone without causing damage or anything like that. I did have to get used to putting the phone in the right spot so the mounts did not push the buttons on the side of my iPhone though. The rubber webbing provided is a little cumbersome to put on at first, but once you get used to it, it really isn't that bad. I have not dealt with this yet, but I am sure I will in the next few weeks as the weather begins to turn colder here in Colorado. I have heard some folks have tightened the arm onto the bar mount while the weather was cold in the morning, and found that the arm was unbelievably tight after it warmed up and the ball mount expanded inside the arm mount. Not really a bad thing, but if it is over-tightened in the cold, and expands in the heat of the day, the nylon/plastic type material may fail. The cons I have only really include the lack of security for the mount itself (arm and X Grip portion). The ball portion is bolted on, so there is no issue there. However, the extension arm with the wing nut to mount the X Grip to the bar mount is very easily taken off. So, you stroll out to the bike and tighten the mount onto the ball on the handlebar, throw the phone in the X Grip, and wrap the rubber retainer around the phone. On the road, there are no issues. You want to make a quick stop at the market, but without a security feature on the mount itself, you hesitate, because you don't want to leave your $50 mount unattended while you run in the store (of course you take the phone with you). I'm a security freak, so these are the things I worry about when I ride through and make stops in the city. Country rides, or group rides, not so much, we mostly leave our helmets on the bikes as well, but alone, I get to worrying. I am sure I could rig something up or replace the wing nut with a more permanent bolt in a few minutes, but it would be nice to have that come from the factory for the price. ## Frequently Bought Together - RAM Mounts X-Grip Phone Mount with Handlebar U-Bolt Base RAM-B-149Z-UN7U , Medium Arm for Motorcycle, ATV/UTV, Bike - RAM Mounts X-Grip Tether for Phone Mounts RAM-TETHER1U - RAM Mounts X-Grip Rubber Cap 4-Pack Replacement RAP-UN-CAP-4U (Black) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1747901-ram-mounts-x-grip-phone-mount-with-handlebar-u-bolt](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1747901-ram-mounts-x-grip-phone-mount-with-handlebar-u-bolt) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-27*
