Reddit reviews TaoTronics Bike Phone Mount Bicycle Holder, Universal Cradle Clamp for iOS Android Smartphone, Boating GPS, Other Devices, with One-button Released, 360 Degrees Rotatable

This is the one I use. It works very well.

I have one of these mounts on both of my bikes. Has worked with both my former Nexus 6 (before the USB port died) and a 5x.

I got this one for my bike and it works great! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B015PS3ME2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apap_n46fSuiXsrNeQ

A7-A8 did seem like a drag but what helped a lot was realizing building gives more AP than breaking.

• Find an area with very high portal density - about 50 portals in a 5-10 minute bike/walk. Make sure they're either opposing team or neutral when you visit or find another area that is. Historical sites are good; our national arboretum has a "memorial plaque" on every second tree so you get 100 portals in about a 15 minute bike ride. (too big to walk quickly though)
  
  
• A bicycle phone mount helps.
  
  
• Deploy all resos, add two mods (ideally a rare/VR heat-sink and a multi-hack) and then hack and walk. The heat-sink and multi-hack are needed to avoid cool-down and burnout while you're repeating your rounds.
  
  
• You don't even need to glyph though that'll add to the AP and give you more resos; not doing this, you might run out. IMO, if you have a "war chest" of necessary resos, glyphing will slow you down. If you don't have the needed resos, glyph.
  
  
• Keep circling this area.
  
  
• When you finish a loop, put all keys into a capsule so you can keep hacking and getting more keys without the "get more keys" glyph command.
  
  At some point you'll get enough keys to do overlapping fields (YouTube for overlapping field tutorials) for some more big AP gains.
  
  You can do all that in a small geographic space, without a car. You could get from A7 to A8 in a weekend, maybe even a day.
  
  After that, you have access to L8 tools (XMPs, resos, etc) so you can tailor your play style to suit you: play as a builder, linker, destroyer, whatever.
  
  You can't be completely mono-tasking though as you need badges to advance. Recharge, hack, deploy, link, field etc... it can't be ALL one thing.

Definitely mount your phone to your handlebars. Here is a good one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015PS3ME2/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

http://amzn.to/2pLS32Z This is the phone mount that I'm using. I'm​ enjoying this mount. I haven't had any problems at all.

I've been using this one for over a month with without any issues.

Smartphone with installed Open Street map maps. You will need a holder, i used to have this one and was doing its job good:

Downside is that it eats battery and smartphone mostly do not like rain.

Second will be purpose like: Garmin Edge 810 (new is 820), Edge 1000 which are both dedicaded bicycle computers and navigation systems with tons of options and is fully water and dust proof.

I returned the TaoTronics and the Roam handlebar mounts. I did like how the TaoTronics model had a more secure cradling mechanism, but I didn't feel confident that either of them would last more than a couple months. I also took a look at the Cycway mount, which looks pretty solid. I might give that one a try soon.

This is what I've used since week 1. The only complaint I have is that the side clamps get in the way when throwing curve balls so I play with the clamps loose.

Cyclist here, I was going to suggest something similar. You want the one with the silicone webbing. This style doesn't keep the phone as still in bumpy areas. This is what I have and while $10 more it is definitely worth it:

Snagged a $15 bike mount from Amazon and can't recommend it enough. Pokestops can be done drive-by style, but for any Pokemon I actually want to catch I just pull off the path for a minute or two.

I bought this one on amazon, it should arrive tomorrow, hopefully it's good.

So in my adult life, I had never ridden a bike up until the point where I discovered an abandoned Citi Bike in a place it clearly didn't belong and was asked to hand it over to the NYPD. Since then I had been toying with the idea of a semi-commuter but wanted the capability of taking it on the subway easily as well as sneak it into the workplace without the fear of leaving it outside all day.

Settled on the Camp 20" 16 Speed Thunderbolt. Not many reviews on it, but the few I found were positive and I got a 'new' one off eBay for $300 delivered, whereas Amazon would cost me about $430. A few scuff marks and other cosmetic damage, but otherwise it appears to be in excellent condition. Had it delivered directly to the local bike shop to have them assemble/tune it and the mechanic was very impressed by it. I barely took it outside when I was approached by a bunch of people asking me about it too. Took a little trial and error for the folding/unfolding. They include a sheet which is completely unhelpful and have a couple of videos on YouTube at super low quality so it took an embarrassingly long time to figure it all out. I love how it uses a magnet to hold the bike in the folded position though.

I replaced the stock amber reflectors with white ones and removed the stock front and rear reflectors. Added usb-rechargeable rear red light and usb-rechargeable electronic horn/head light. Also added Taotronics cell phone holder, rear view mirror and nori lights.

Only rode it for about a mile today and it rides really well on the streets of NYC. Seat isn't bad but still a bit uncomfortable after a while. have a wider Sunlite Cloud-9 on order so we'll see how that goes.

The tricky part was adding the accessories in a way that the bike could still fold with them on. I actually ended up moving the headlight/horn to the handlebar post because i could only mount things on one side of the handlebar.

That looks similar to this one that I have, but the taotronics has a foldout plastic support at the bottom in addition to the rubber. The only problem is I have a big, heavy phone (Nexus 6) and the part that holds the phone has fallen off the mount when going down a flight of stairs. It's been fine on the trails which jerk the bike around less than stairs.

I have this and it works great on my FX

I have one of these for cycling and it has so far proved super effective for Pokemon GO! :)

I recently bought a taotronics bike support which is performing perfectly: http://www.amazon.com/Taotronics-Universal-Smartphone-One-button-Rotatable/dp/B015PS3ME2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1462276680&sr=8-1&keywords=taotronics+bike+mount

This is what I use.

The side rails don't seem like they would hold a large phone, but my 6p does fine. There are plenty of apps for the phone, don't see any advantage to a dedicated cycling computer.
