The Perfect Squeeze Phone & Tablet Mount
Rock-Solid phone/tablet Mount
The Perfect Squeeze
- The Big Squeeze and the Prefect Squeeze are designed with one objective in mind: Hold any device in any terrain. And by hold we mean hold steady, without wobble, without constant readjustments.
- Just rock-solid holding power for folks who need to read their map while skipping through whoops or getting rattled over nasty washboard.
- It will hold everything from a small phone to a full-sized iPad and doesn’t need any sort of special case to do it.
- We like the Perfect Squeeze with a RAM Mount
We own a Perfect Squeeze, and after trying others on the market, we can Attest, this is the best, most solid and reliable phone mount on the market.
