    :thumbsup: hahaha gotta have some of that or else this wouldnt be TW.

    Chea, you go hard off road so you know what its like to come up on an unexpected drop or whoop and have your phone/gps end up under your feet when you pull off the trail.

    Bad Elf makes a pretty cool little GPS unit that plugs into phones and tablets that will track you without cell service, we are even looking into making an APP that would mimic the function of a Lowrance GPS.

    If they are making it for fractions of pennys by the thousands then they can afford to sell it for pennies on the dollar. :notsure:

    Ram is a huge company, the injection molds for each of their products are a few thousand dollars. And they have hundreds of different products :eek:

    :)

    I can't find a picture so I will take one and post it when I get back to my truck.

    It is a 1.5" steel disc that has a black oxide coating so it will not scratch off to silver.

    Is there any options or ways to make it work with a PanaVise mount?

    If I am reading this correctly, our product will work perfectly with that.

    Bracket Material:Steel
    Bracket Finish:Black powdercoated


    If you had the mount that is shown in that link, our magnet would stick to their steel mount bracket with no problems.

    It would serve the same purpose of our steel mount discs that are adhesive backed. :thumbsup:

    Sub'd for larger iPhone 6 mount. I'll have to check my Kawasaki Ninja to see if the handlebar mount would work. Not a huge fan of the look of my current RAM mount for the Ninja.
