We gave you the chance to win one of the natty Quad Lock smartphone mounts last week, and now it's time to annouce the three winners in our Quad Lock competition. Okay, we said we'd do it yesterday but it was Tony's birthday and we got distracted with the cake.
So the three winners out of the hat are… backflipbedlem, Vin Cox and justDave. Congratulations! We'll be in touch to arrange your prizes. Thanks to everyone who took part.
Remember, stay tuned for more competitions on the way soon.
—————————————————————————-
Cyclists are increasingly using smartphones for navigating and recording rides, and the Quad Lock is a lightweight, strong and secure mounting system compatible with a wide range of phones, including the iPhone 5 and Galaxy S4.
Madison (who also look after brands like Shimano, GoPro, Park Tool) have just landed the exclusive distribution rights for Quad Lock in the UK and ROI, and to celebrate are giving three lucky road.cc readers the chance to win a Quad Lock iPhone 5, iPhone 6 or Galaxy S4.

The Quad Lock is really easy to use. You get a case to pop your phone in, the mount attaches to the stem or handlebars, and the case simply twists and locks into place. The slim case also acts as a protective case for your phone so you can leave it on when you’re off the bike. You can read Dave’s indepth review to find out more about using the Quad Lock here.
To recap, we’ve got three mounts to give away, the three lucky winners can choose from an iPhone 5, iPhone 6 or Galaxy S4. These kits are worth between £25 and £45. Just tell us in the comments box if you use a phone when you’re cycling for tracking your activity or navigating routes, and we’ll stick your hat in the draw.
You’ve got until 5.30pm on Monday 15th December. Usual schwag grab rules apply

I’ve got an old Sony Xperia x8 running a Gingerbread 2.3 ROM for recording rides and navigation.
I’ve hacked bits off an SRAM Garmin mount adapter and epoxy’d it to the back of a spare case for the phone, allowing e to stick it on a regular Garmin handlebar mount.
The phone is ANT+ capable and I run Ifor Powell’s IPBike suite, for recording/uploading rides and speed data. Once Christmas has been and gone, I should have the all important ANT+ speed/cadence unit and HRM, and thus, I will have a full colour touch screen ‘Garmin alike’ at a tiny fraction of the cost, and better yet, I can carry spare batteries for it for those extra long rides AND still use it as a phone if needs be 🙂
For directions I’ll usually use RideWithGPS with my ‘main’ phone and a bluetooth earpiece, though it runs fine on the X8 as well.
I’d still love a quadlock for the MTB though!

Viewranger is without doubt
Viewranger is without doubt the best mapping and routing app in the world and it’s British and you can even put in audible points on turns so you not need to see screen which is safer and saves battery.
And because it uses 1inch and 2.5 inch OS maps you can use it off road. And it provides non UK maps, we used it off road in New Zealand with our Santa Cruz MTBs. We use it all the time with our road Boardmans.
