Best Phone Mount for Your E-Bike or Scooter: Handlebar Holders vs Frame Bags

Whether you are following turn-by-turn directions, tracking your ride, or just want your phone within reach, a good mount keeps it secure, visible, and off your hands. There are two main approaches — a clamp that grips your handlebar, or a bag that straps to your top tube or frame — and each suits a different riding style.

Handlebar Clamp Mounts — Best for Quick Glances

A handlebar mount puts your phone screen right at eye level next to your grips, which is ideal if you check navigation frequently. Look for a wide compatibility range and a secure quick-release latch so the phone cannot bounce loose on rough pavement.

Waterproof Frame Bags — Best for Weather Protection & Storage

A frame bag straps along your top tube instead of clamping to the handlebar. The phone sits inside a clear touchscreen window, protected from rain and road spray, and the bag itself gives you extra storage for keys, a wallet, or snacks — something a clamp mount cannot offer.

Which Should You Choose?

Style Pros Best For
Handlebar clamp mount Eye-level screen, quick to glance at Frequent navigation checks
Waterproof frame bag Weather protection, extra storage Commuting in rain, longer rides

If you ride mostly in dry weather and want the fastest glance at your screen, go with a handlebar clamp. If you commute rain or shine or want somewhere to stash your wallet and keys, a frame bag is the better fit. See the full lineup in our Phone Mounts collection.
