any recommendation from shoppee or carousell?

[@thomasstansberry2311]

I like the show 👍🏼 Have a great day guys ✌🏼

[@tri333ple]

Should be able to find it on carousell by searching cheap lock

[@tri333ple]

Thank you Thomas. Appreciate it

[@manuundjenny]

Wheee to find the one with vibration module ?

[@zieWRITES]

I am currently using the cheap lock with vib dampener and a quad lock case for the phone. Went through all road conditions, works like a charm. If using the cheap lock adaptor, replace the adhesive with a 3M VHB Tape.

[@tri333ple]

Real life example for you 🤣🤣 thanks for sharing buddy.

[@samskelding2891]

So is it the same exact fitting? I've got official quad lock vibration dampener, will that fit on the cheap lock motorbike bracket

[@ike8236]

So you have the quad lock dampener on the cheap mount?

[@samskelding2891]

@@ike8236 I do now, works well

[@ike8236]

@@samskelding2891 yeah sweet seems like the way to go, still cheaper than just the quad lock mount itself.

[@WestSussexBiker]

I've used the "cheap lock" for over 2 years without any problems but i did change the double-sided tape for 3M VHB Tape. I also tested the "cheap lock" with a 50 mph slide crash and it survived without damage to the lock or phone. Bike didn't survive

Just buy a roll of 3m and cut to size.

[@jaysondelossantos5078]

Im using the cheap lock as well but I immediately use a 3M double sided tape for the adhesive since I don't trust the one that is included on the package.

[@nas76]

@@jaysondelossantos5078 does phone case material affect the stickiness of the tape? my phone case is silicone

[@rrairr]

Q4 2023: I got the cheaplock (actually called Pushlock here) and it already had a 3M VHB adhesive. It's around 10$ for both mount and cheap dampener. It's currently mounted on my MTB. Only been using for a month though, but so far it really works well and the build quality feels great. On rough riding, it's stable and it holds the phone pretty solid. Edit: the pad is installed on my plastic phone case. If anyone's wondering too; the adhesive's thickness is 1mm

[@sodiumzirconium]

[@cghrios783]

Please where do you buy it. Could you link it? Thanks

[@tomdelozier7206]

I love your tests guys! Thorough, informative, and entertaining. About the adhesive test, for both quad lock pulls, the rope was looped over the mount itself so was not testing the adhesive (perhaps an editing issue), and it actually resulted in a broken phone in the last test. The Cheap Lock had the rope looped next to the mount so did actually test the adhesive. FWIW, I do have the Cheap Lock with dampener, your test gave me confidence in the purchase and its been working well for several months.

I have the original quad lock holder with the original vibration dampener, but after changing the phone I bought a cheap universal a phone mount, that I mounted on a clear case with a plastic back. After 24 hours of installation, I tried the test of how many kilograms it can withstand and at 12 kg it did not come off even a mm. So I think it is trustworthy without changing the glue.

[@marianoaguirre9397]

Excelente vídeo, la última prueba fue la mejor!

I went for the cheap lock with a Quad lock case, and its amazing. The QL cases are truly worth the money, very nice and high quality, rock solid protection, feels great in your hands with metal buttons, and I've got the new S23 FE Mag case and its combatable with wireless charging, and most Magsafe products, even got a Magsafe Popsocket wallet I'm running on it.

[@uberacx]

You guys are hilarious. Fun and informative video. I bought plenty of quadlock stuff. They are good quality but not perfect. Biggest complain is that the armband inside face does not have any gripping material so it slips easily. The locking mechanism is not the easiest to lock but it’s secure. MAG head is useful I bought one for my car. Regular Apple MagSafe is NOT secure enough if you use a case. MAG head has a locking shape so it would never fall off (not for bikes tho). But yes i think the biggest problem is price. Not everyone wants to buy cheap locks but quad locks are very expensive. Buying one set is ok but their philosophy is for user to employ the use of their lock and mount systems for biggest benefits. But by setting prices very high will limit how many people will buy them and how many people will buy.

[@mathewmurphy1552]

I am part of One of Canada‘s biggest motorcycle clubs and because of your guys video I’ll be recommending them to get the cheap lock. Thank You very much you guys.

Have you guys tried the generic version of the vibration dampener? There are versions of it everywhere that’s much less expensive compared to quad locks

So seems like the way to go is official quad lock phone case and vibration mount with the cheap lock to save some money...too bad I already have the quad lock one, could have saved a few bucks

[@Yamahog]

Loved it when the Glass case failed.... Still not sure who tied on the rope when you were trying to get Adhesion failure because the rope was tied around the base instead of just the phone case. All in all, this was funny to watch. Yes, Go with "cheap lock" and 3M adhesive.

Wa this is super awesome! So entertaining also!

[@tri333ple]

Thanks Daniel. Hope you liked it! More to come!

[@thatdudemoe9109]

For the second test slight differences - i would guess it would be due to the mounts being located in SLIGHTLY different areas. The slightest change, angle, grip, position of the mount on the bars could affect the results. That said, I believe THEY ARE THE EXACT SAME! I am convinced!

[@chrisunderhill8853]

I loved your review and testing. I would like to say the vib damper from quad lock is meant for Higher Rpm vibrations i don't know the specific vibration frequency that causes the camera on the phone to freak out i do know its not below 1000 Rpm. I would like to see that test hehe :) cheers

[@tri333ple]

according to the comments they work pretty well!

[@amormamangun1058]

Bro what type of phone case do you used on that test that where you stick the adhesive of the quadlock? Because I'm thinking if i should buy a hard casing for my phone or just use the silicon one that is included when I bought my phone. Im thinking if the strong wind hit my phone will it pop out from the silicon phone casing.

we really recommend that if you can, get the quad lock casing that comes with the mounting adapter!

If i remember correctly its called resonance or something. Just search vibration metre on the app store you should find it

[@vecioalpin8998]

As a biker I can tell you that the experiment should have be done on the move NOT like that. On the road u add the engine vibration to the movement itself and the attrition on the road, It can make a lot of difference. For the rest nice job! Well done!

[@woopdidoooo]

We should be supporting quadlock that actually spent the time and research into making these products rather than copy-cats off Aliexpress. The quadlock mount "failing" from a pull test is a far from intended purpose. You're better off doing a long term test (eg daily use, wear and tear) and impact force simulating a crash.
