Recommendations for out front Galaxy mount?
Hi,
Can I get a recommendation for a high quality "out front" mount? I have a Samsung Galaxy S21 plus. I have no more room on my handle bar.
Thanks

I would vote for QuadLock, a better front light (so people can easily see you and you can do some seeing) and mounting the what I am assuming is a horn underneath the bars it will give you a touch more space potentially

Yes, that's a Hornet electric horn. Mounting under neath sounds like I good idea. Im going to give it a try. If that doesnt look right, I'll buy the Quad Lock.
Thanks guys!

QuadLock is quite excellent many of my former co-workers used it and one of them would sometimes use his phone to lift up the bike (which I don't recommend) and it never broke the QuadLock Pro mount he used.
Plus with QuadLock you can integrate it into your life in the car, at home and elsewhere with a bunch of other mounts. However I feel like I am starting a commercial here and that is not the case I just think it is a good quality product.

About the best handlebar accessory mount that I’ve run across is the Dajia handlebar adapter from Velo Orange. They don’t seem to make it anymore but the link says they have them in stock. They are far better than most other clamp on type mounts and are really solid. Here’s pictures of a couple of them
