The iOmounts® Advantage Over Mechanical Grips
Traditional phone mounts rely on plastic claws, rubber bands, and mechanical tension to hold your device. Over time, these components degrade, vibrate loose, or fail under the high-torque conditions of a V-Twin engine. The iOmounts® system utilizes physics rather than friction. By using a high-strength magnetic interface, we provide a mount that is not only more secure but also significantly more aesthetically pleasing for riders who have invested in custom builds.
The core of the system is the iOcore™ magnet and the razor-thin, stainless steel iOdisc™. The disc adheres to the back of your phone or case, creating a "snap-on, snap-off" experience. There are no arms to adjust and no brackets to tighten. This minimalist design ensures that when your phone is not mounted, the bracket remains a discreet, high-quality addition to your bike rather than a bulky plastic eyesore.
Specialized Mounting Solutions for Every Motorcycle
We don’t believe in "universal" compromises when it comes to your control setup. Klock Werks has engineered specific mounting hardware for brands like Harley-Davidson, Indian, Honda, and Victory to ensure a factory-fit appearance.
- Perch Mounts: These attach directly to your clutch or brake perch, keeping your device within your natural line of sight without cluttering the center of your bars.
- Center Riser Mounts: Ideal for bikes with traditional handlebar setups, these attach to the riser clamp for a symmetrical, centered view of your navigation.
- Ambidextrous Mounts: These offer total flexibility, allowing for left or right-side positioning depending on your control preferences.
- Nomad & nomad+™: Our universal bar mounts utilize a quick-release clamp (fitting 7/8”, 1”, and 1 1/4” bars), making them perfect for riders who want to move their mount between multiple bikes or e-bikes in seconds.
Rugged Reliability for Off-Road and UTV Adventures
The demands of the trail are even more punishing than the highway. For UTV and off-road enthusiasts, iOmounts® provides hardware designed to withstand extreme vibration and jarring impacts. Our Roll Cage Mounts are precision-machined to fit tubing from 1.625 to 2 inches, ensuring your GPS stays fixed during high-speed desert runs or technical rock crawling.
For a more integrated look, the Rocker Switch Mount fits directly into standard switch openings on your dash, providing a clean, "factory" mounting point. We even offer Passenger Grab Handle Mounts, ensuring that your navigator has hands-free access to maps or entertainment without the device bouncing around the cab.
Seamless Connectivity from the Garage to the Workspace
The beauty of the iOmounts® ecosystem is that it doesn't stop at the garage door. Once your phone has an iOdisc™ attached, it is compatible with our entire range of home and office solutions. You can pull your phone off your motorcycle handlebar and instantly "click" it onto an iOdesk stand for a video call or an iOwall mount in your kitchen to follow a recipe.
For those who travel, the iOtraveler utilizes a powerful suction interface for rental cars or remote workspaces, while the iOtraveler Magnet provides a portable solution for any metallic surface. This cross-platform compatibility is why the iOmounts® system is more than just a motorcycle accessory—it is a lifestyle integration.
Safety, Signal Integrity, and Proper Installation
A common concern with magnetic mounts is whether they are safe for modern electronics. The magnets used in the iOmounts® system are specifically engineered to be safe for smartphones and tablets. They do not interfere with your GPS, cellular signal, or battery life.
To ensure maximum security, proper installation is key. When you place your phone on the iOcore™, there should be zero "wiggle room" or sliding. A firm, centered connection ensures the magnet is working at its full rated capacity. For added peace of mind during high-speed outdoor use, every Klock Werks outdoor mounting system includes a safety tether—a simple, effective backup that ensures your device stays with the bike no matter what the road throws at you.
People Also Ask (FAQ)
Will the iOmounts® magnet damage my phone's internal components?
No. Modern smartphones use solid-state storage (Flash memory), which is not affected by magnets. The iOmounts® system is engineered to be safe for all modern mobile devices and will not interfere with your screen, signal, or battery.
Can I use the iOdisc™ with a phone case?
Yes. The iOdisc™ can be adhered directly to the back of most smooth, flat phone cases. We recommend a high-quality case for the best results. If you use a very thick or heavily textured case, we suggest mounting the disc to the outside of the case for the strongest magnetic bond.
Is the nomad+™ mount easy to move between bikes?
Absolutely. The nomad+™ features a tool-free, snap-over lever clamp. You can move it from a 1.25" motorcycle bar to a 7/8" bicycle bar in about ten seconds, making it the most versatile mount in our lineup.
What should I do if I upgrade my phone?
The mounting hardware stays on your bike or desk. All you need is a new iOdisc™ for your new phone or case. We sell individual discs so you can easily transition your entire iOmounts® ecosystem to your next device.
Is it legal to have a phone mounted on my handlebars?
In most states, hands-free phone use is legal and encouraged for navigation. However, laws regarding "distracted driving" and specific mounting locations (like windshield obstructions) vary by state. Always check your local regulations to stay compliant.
