You can mount it on the handlebar or the stem; they have two mounting bases. The Connection at the bottom is a USB ANT+ sensor receiver. The top of the unit extends to fit any sized phone into it. I bought it at our local Performance Bicycles shop. It's bulletproof and rock steady. The program is iPBike.

Because that's not distracting/bulky/ugly at all .

if you're wanting to bring your phone along for gps mapping with strava/MMR/rideWithGPS/ ect.. just throw it in your middle back pocket. I used to put mine in a plastic bag, but for the last year I haven't even done that. Just throw it in, you'll upgrade long before sweat could kill your phone. I bought a heart rate monitor, and just leave the watch strapped to the handlebar ( http://www.nashbar.com/bikes/Product_10053_10052_529252_-1___ ) It's really the only important thing, as speed, distance, ect.. are all a function of your heart rate. Then you can go back and look at the route on the cell phone/pc later.
