The BOBO BM 1 is a motorcycle phone mount that combines a jaw-grip clamping mechanism with an integrated USB 3.0 fast charger. Unlike basic mounts that require separate charging cables, the BM 1 delivers secure phone retention and simultaneous fast charging through a single handlebar-mounted unit, designed specifically for navigation and communication needs during rides across India.

Key Features
Jaw-Grip Retention System: Multi-point clamping mechanism holds your phone securely even on rough terrain and high-vibration roads, preventing drops during aggressive riding or emergency braking.
Integrated USB 3.0 Fast Charging: Built-in fast charger eliminates the need for separate power banks or dangling cables, keeping your navigation app running and phone battery topped up during long tours.
One-Hand Operation: Quick-release jaw mechanism allows you to mount and dismount your phone with gloved hands at fuel stops or traffic lights without fumbling with complex locking systems.
Vibration-Resistant Design: Engineered to dampen handlebar vibrations that can blur your screen or interfere with touchscreen responsiveness, maintaining clear visibility of navigation maps.
Use Case Scenarios
- Daily commuters navigating through city traffic using Google Maps or navigation apps while keeping phone charged for calls and messages
- Long-distance touring riders who depend on GPS navigation for multi-hour rides and need continuous phone charging without stopping
- Delivery riders and ride-hailing professionals who require constant phone access for order tracking, customer calls, and navigation across multiple drop points
Why Choose the BM 1?
- Eliminates the charging cable mess – integrated USB 3.0 charger means no loose wires flapping in the wind or getting tangled in controls
- Jaw-grip design secures phones more reliably than elastic band or magnetic mounts that can fail on potholed Indian roads
- Fast charging capability ensures your phone stays powered even with screen-intensive navigation apps draining battery rapidly
- Handlebar mounting keeps phone at eye level for safer navigation glances compared to tank bag or pocket storage
Pros & Considerations
Pros:
- Integrated fast charging eliminates need for separate power solutions or cable management
- Jaw-grip mechanism provides superior retention compared to magnetic or elastic strap mounts
- Suitable for various phone sizes without requiring adapter plates or case modifications
Considerations:
- Requires hardwired connection to bike battery or USB port for charging function to work
- Jaw-grip arms may obstruct side buttons on some phone models – test fit before long rides
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I power the USB 3.0 charger on the BOBO BM 1?
A: The USB charger requires connection to your motorcycle’s battery or an existing 12V power outlet. You’ll need to run a power cable from the mount to your bike’s electrical system, either by tapping into the battery directly or using an accessory USB port if your bike has one installed.
Q: Will the jaw-grip damage my phone screen or case?
A: The jaw-grip clamps contact the sides and corners of your phone, not the screen. The grip arms are typically designed with rubber or silicone padding to prevent scratches on your phone’s frame or case. However, remove pop sockets or thick wallet cases before mounting for proper fit.
Q: Can I use this mount in rain or during bike washes?
A: While the mount itself can withstand rain exposure, your phone is not protected unless it has its own waterproof rating or you use a waterproof phone case. The USB charging port should be protected from direct water spray. Remove your phone during bike washes and heavy downpours unless using a waterproof pouch.
Q: Does the USB 3.0 fast charging work with both Android and iPhone?
A: Yes, the USB 3.0 port provides power output that works with both Android and iPhone devices. You’ll use your phone’s existing charging cable (USB-C for most Androids, Lightning for iPhones) to connect from the mount’s USB port to your phone. Charging speed depends on your phone’s capabilities and cable quality.
Q: How does vibration affect phone camera performance with this mount?
A: Motorcycle vibrations, especially from single-cylinder or V-twin engines, can cause long-term damage to phone camera optical image stabilization (OIS) systems. While the BOBO BM 1’s jaw-grip provides secure retention, it does not eliminate vibrations. For high-vibration bikes, consider removing your phone during rides and using a dedicated GPS unit, or ride shorter durations to minimize OIS wear.
