Although people don't need the distractions of their mobile device on their bicycles as they try to navigate around their city safely, thsi universal smartphone bike mount could come in handy for a few things. Directions, music and brief communication being a some examples. Yet owning a smartphone has become as fashionable as owning a pair of expensive shoes. People change them up as frequently as a new design is released. Case in point, the [iPhone 6 Plus](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iphone-6-plus). Much bigger than the iPhone 5 and 6, a whole new mount would be required if purchased.

But that wouldn't be the case with this universal smartphone bike mount. Dubbed Finn, it is a minimalist product made in Austria out of [high-grade silicon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bellroy-venture-phone-case). This material keeps the phone in place securely with minimal vibration.
