Free Bike, Bicycle, Low Profile Cell Phone Holder

I love to ride but did not have a way to safely carry my phone. The other day I saw this koozi sitting on my desk and the light came on.

I also used picture hanging wire from the dollar store.

Thread Your Wire.

The best place to mount it is on the handlebar/stem, take the appropriate measurements and mark thee koozi with a marker.

Thread the wire to be wrapped around the handlebar on each side of the stem.. This was a trial and error process until I got the right location for the wires.

Since the koozi is made out of foam, just push the wires through the koozi.

I threaded two pieces of wire at the top and one at the bottom to be wrapped around the stem (see second picture).

After wrapping and trimming the wires, you are set to go riding on the road while having your phone in a safe place.

If you are going to hit the trails, it's better to fasten your phone to prevent it from coming out due to bumps or what not.

I made a small strap out of a "1/2 in. buckle" I had in my pile of junk or you can buy them a Hobby Lobby or Walmart,. I I also cut a small piece of rubber from an old inner tube.

Fasten your phone and you are ready to go.

You could also use this to carry a small bottle of water or any other items.
