RAM Mounts RAM-B-231ZU Handlebar U-Bolt Mount
The RAM-B-231ZU is a heavy-duty U-bolt handlebar mount built around RAM's ball-and-socket system, delivering strong mechanical reinforcement and effective vibration isolation for off-road and e‑bike use. Compared with phone-focused dampeners like Quad Lock and SP Connect, RAM's all-metal construction and modular ecosystem offer superior long-term durability and lower cost per mounting configuration, though it sacrifices the low-profile styling of camera-first mounts such as Peak Design.

Quad Lock Vibration Dampener
The Quad Lock Vibration Dampener is a slim insert that reduces high-frequency micro-vibrations for phones on rough trails while preserving the secure twist-lock connection of the Quad Lock system. It is typically pricier than generic rubber isolators but provides optimized phone protection and seamless integration, making it the most financially sensible choice for riders already invested in Quad Lock accessories compared with bulkier or more generic mounting solutions.

SP Connect Anti Vibration Module
The SP Connect Anti Vibration Module is a low-profile silicone isolator that clips into SP Connect mounts to absorb trail shocks without adding bulk, tuned for a softer damping feel suited to e‑bike vibration spectra. Technically comparable to Quad Lock's option, SP Connect often offers competitive EU pricing and a slightly different damping curve that some riders prefer over firmer, more rigid mounts like K‑Edge or RAM.

K-Edge Gravity Cap Mount
The K-Edge Gravity Cap Mount is a stiff, CNC-machined mount designed for cycling computers and lights, providing reinforced clamping that preserves sensor alignment under heavy off‑road loads but intentionally transmits more vibration to maintain precise antenna and sensor orientation. Positioned as a premium performance part, K-Edge trades the soft isolation of Quad Lock/SP Connect for structural rigidity and repeatable positioning preferred by racers and e‑bike users who prioritize data accuracy over phone comfort.
