BiKGrip Phone Holder
BiKGrip Phone Holder
If you have watched our reviews, you have seen this one on the bars. The BiKGrip is the phone holder I (Ryan) reach for in almost every ride and review, for one simple reason: it is the easiest to attach and it just works. Snap it on, ride, move it to the next bike, no tools and no fuss.
What sets it apart is the lever-lock design. Instead of relying on stretchy silicone bands, the BiKGrip clamps your phone in place with a secure spring-loaded grip, so it holds firm over potholes, gravel, and washboard without bouncing loose. It is machined from aluminum rather than molded plastic, making it more durable and more adjustable than a typical mount, and it fits almost every handlebar out there thanks to the included 22-33mm inserts.
Why we recommend the BiKGrip
- Secure lever-lock grip. A spring-loaded lever clamps the phone in place and holds it steady on rough terrain, then releases in a second when you want it off.
- Easiest to attach. No tools required. It is the mount we move from bike to bike during reviews because it goes on and comes off in seconds.
- Fits almost all handlebars. Included inserts cover 22-33mm bars, so it works on the vast majority of ebikes and bikes.
- Universal phone fit. Holds virtually any phone, including large models with thick cases.
- Adjustable viewing angle. Rotate between portrait and landscape and tilt vertically to dial in the best view.
- Built to last. Machined aluminum construction for durability that outlasts plastic holders.

Riding bars outside the 22-33mm range, or want a lighter-weight option? Take a look at our ElastoKase universal phone mount or the strap-style Handy Phone Clamp as alternatives.
How to choose the right ebike phone mount
- Measure your handlebar first. The BiKGrip ships with inserts covering 22-33mm, which is the vast majority of ebike and bike bars. Measure the diameter at the spot where you actually want the mount to sit, not at the grips or the stem clamp, since bars often taper.
- Bars outside that range? Some oversized ebike bars and some aero or riser bars fall outside 22-33mm. In that case look at our ElastoKase universal phone mount or the strap-style Handy Phone Clamp, both of which are more forgiving on odd bar shapes.
- Think about how often you swap bikes. If your phone lives on one bike permanently, most mounts will do. The BiKGrip earns its place when you move it constantly, because it goes on and off without tools.
- Rough terrain favors a lever lock. Silicone-band mounts stretch and loosen over time. A spring-loaded clamp keeps its grip on gravel, potholes, and washboard.
Ebike phone holder FAQ
What handlebar sizes does the BiKGrip fit?
It includes inserts for handlebars from 22mm to 33mm in diameter, which covers the large majority of ebikes and bicycles. Measure your bar at the mounting location before ordering, since many bars taper along their length.
Can I rotate between portrait and landscape?
Yes. The mount rotates between portrait and landscape and also tilts vertically, so you can set the viewing angle for navigation, ride tracking, or filming.
Will it stay put on rough roads?
Yes, as long as you secure it properly, and there are two steps people miss. Use the extra latch to lock the phone in, and make sure the quick release is fully seated and tight on the bars. Do both and it holds on genuinely rough terrain. Skip either one and you are relying on the primary clamp alone.
Will it work with a big phone in a thick case?
Yes. We have run large phones in bulky, heavy-duty cases without trouble. The lever-lock clamps around the phone instead of dropping it into a fixed pocket, so case thickness is not the limiting factor.
Will it press my power or volume buttons?
This is the one thing worth checking before your first ride, and almost nobody mentions it. Depending on where your phone's power and volume buttons sit, the clamp arms can land on them. In most cases you can rotate or reposition the phone so the arms clear the buttons entirely. Take a moment to find that orientation when you first mount it, rather than discovering it mid-ride.
Does it require tools to install?
No. It installs and removes by hand in seconds, which is exactly why it is the mount we move from bike to bike during reviews.
Is it made of plastic?
No. The BiKGrip is machined from aluminum, which is more durable and holds its adjustment better than the molded plastic mounts in this price range.
