Quick Answer
Replace worn O-rings and zip ties on your Quad Lock Bike Mount, or swap out the quick release strap on your Strap Mount, using genuine Quad Lock replacement parts. These simple swaps restore secure fit and prevent accidental drops.
When to Replace O-Rings and Zip Ties
O-rings and zip ties on your Quad Lock Bike Mount experience regular stress from vibration, weather, and UV exposure. Over time, O-rings can stretch, crack, or lose elasticity, and zip ties may become brittle or snap. If your phone mount feels loose or the zip ties no longer hold the mount firmly against your handlebars, it is time to swap them out. The Replacement - O Rings/Zip Ties pack includes everything you need to restore a snug, secure fit without buying a whole new mount.
When to Replace the Quick Release Strap
The Quick Release Strap Mount relies on a durable nylon strap to secure your phone or case. If the strap shows fraying, has difficulty clicking into the buckle, or no longer holds tension, replacing it with the Replacement - Quick Release Strap is a quick fix. This accessory is designed specifically for the Quad Lock Quick Release Strap Mount, so compatibility is guaranteed. A fresh strap restores the one-handed release action and ensures your device stays put.
How to Replace Quad Lock O-Rings, Zip Ties, and Quick Release Strap
- Remove the Old O-Rings and Zip Ties: Unthread the old zip ties from the Bike Mount base using a small flathead screwdriver or pliers to lift the locking tab. Slide the worn O-rings off the mount’s cradle. Common mistake: cutting the zip ties without noting how they were routed—take a photo first so you can replicate the threading pattern.
- Install the New Zip Ties: Thread the new zip ties through the mount’s slots and around your handlebars or stem. Pull them snug but not overtightened—the mount should not flex. Trim the excess tail flush with the locking head using flush cutters. Common mistake: overtightening can crack the mount base or deform the zip tie, leading to premature failure. Check that the mount sits flat against the handlebar before fully tightening.
- Fit the New O-Rings: Stretch the new O-rings over the mount’s cradle arms. Position them in the grooves so they sit evenly without twisting. Common mistake: forcing a dry O-ring can tear it—moisten your fingers slightly to help it slide into place.
- Replace the Quick Release Strap: Unthread the worn strap from the Strap Mount’s buckle and slots. Feed the new Replacement - Quick Release Strap through the same path, ensuring the buckle clicks audibly when closed. Common mistake: routing the strap backward—the buckle release button should face outward for easy one-handed operation. Test the release action a few times before mounting your device.
