A device designed to securely support a mobile communication device within the cylindrical recess typically found in vehicles for beverage containment. This specialized adaptation integrates a common smartphone mounting system with a fixture intended for a different purpose, repurposing existing infrastructure for technological convenience. For instance, it enables riders of two-wheeled motorized vehicles to view navigation applications or control audio playback without direct manual interaction while in transit.
The value of such an apparatus lies in its provision of hands-free operation of mobile devices on motorcycles, enhancing safety and convenience. Historical approaches to securing phones on motorcycles often involved more complex and permanent mounting solutions. This alternative leverages pre-existing vehicle features, offering ease of installation and removal. This adaptability is particularly useful for riders who may not want a permanent fixture or who utilize different motorcycles intermittently. Furthermore, it can mitigate the need for modifications to the motorcycle’s frame or handlebars.
