Quad Lock Schwag Grab: we have winners!
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
David worked on the road.cc tech team from 2012-2020. Previously he was editor of Bikemagic.com and before that staff writer at RCUK. He's a seasoned cyclist of all disciplines, from road to mountain biking, touring to cyclo-cross, he only wishes he had time to ride them all. He's mildly competitive, though he'll never admit it, and is a frequent road racer but is too lazy to do really well. He currently resides in the Cotswolds, and you can now find him over on his own YouTube channel David Arthur - Just Ride Bikes.

iPhone 5 with Wahoo Fitness which then syncs with Strava
yes please
Yes please.....I need all the help I can get! iPhone5 pleeeeeaasee
iPhone for uploads on the move. Did use Android, but the battery drain was incredible. Either way, I would very much like one of these.
Oh most definitely yes. That'd be grand for the iPhone 6.
iPhone 6 - need for navigating. Breadcrumbs on Garmin 500 is poor!
Yes please
Yes please
Yes please
Yes please!
Yes please.
iPhone 5 please.
I use my iPhone to track all my rides (and runs) on Strava, would love a Quad Lock, save me slinging it in my jersey pocket. Can be a bit tricky trying to navigate one handed as well!
Merry Christmas Road.cc
Very nice. Would love one of these. lphone 6
Yes please!
I use a phone when cycling for tracking my activity, not navigating routes.
If I need a navigation aid, I usually use a map hand-sketched on a card or a piece of A4, folded and stuffed in jersey pocket, where it will get wet and tear when I try to read it, or it will fall out and get lost when pulling out snacks.
I use my phone to record strava but generally only ride where I know where I am going. A nice new mount for navigating some centuries in the new year might all the encouragement I need...
I use runtastic road bike for my statistics
S4 mount please.
I use the Strava app on the iphone 5s so yes please
Just what I need for new phone.
Clunk click every trip!
Id love one for my second iphone6 plus, the first one is somewhere on Dartmoor! Its just too big to fit in the average pocket so a quad lock would help no end. It would mean i might notice it missing before finishing a ride and not knowing where it fell off.
iPhone 6 please. Often use my phone for maps and back-up GPS.
I use both my phone and my Garmin Unit.
I pair the two for the live tracking ability.
I would love to use the Quad Lock.
iPhone 5 would be perfect
Love it!
Strava on iPhone.
Both! But mostly Strava.
I am racing the Transcontinental next year and I will using my phone for back up navigation.
Got to be a better option than the phone in the back pocket
