QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Have a Question?

Ask a Question
  • I don't see my phone listed in the compatibility section for this cradle. How can I make sure my tablet is compatible before placing an order?

    You can find a list of compatible dimensions for this holder in the product information section. If you want to make sure your tablet will fit in this holder you can measure your tablet to make sure it falls within the compatible dimensions.

  • Hi I have a question, will the Fork Stem Base fit in my Kawasaki Ninja 300 fork stem base?

    It is universal and will fit if your fork stem hole is between 0.5" and 1.49" in diameter.

  • I noticed my phone can rotate back and forth when it is in the X-Grip. Is that normal?

    That type of movement is totally normal for the X-Grip. When being used for less rugged applications the small amount of movement allowed is not an issue, but sometimes when traveling at higher speeds or in bumpy environments it can be. If that is causing problems in your application, it is best to use the safety tether which will prevent that type of movement by creating tension between the phone and backplate.

Reading part numbers

The letter after RAM tells you the ball size: RAM-B-166 uses a 1" B ball, while RAM-D-201 uses a 2.25" D ball. C size parts are the exception and carry no letter, so RAM-201U is a C size arm.
