iPhone 5 Bike Mount is almost ready
Judging by the amount of emails and phone calls we have been getting we know you guys are really looking forward to the iPhone 5 Quad Lock Case! And you'll be happy to know its almost here! We have been working tirelessly around the clock to make sure that the new iPhone 5 Quad Lock Case is the best case we have ever produced.
We've listened to the feed back and gone back to the drawing board to design a case that is super protective, super secure, feels great in hand, slides into your pocket and works great with our patent pending mounting system. Yesterday all that effort paid off as we recevied the final pre-production samples and we're stoked with the results!
The new case is easier to remove while still being super secure, way more protective, more streamlined, and is the best case we have ever made. We've changed things up a bit by going for a TPU outer with a PC inner in whats called an overmolded design. This doubles the tooling and part costs but we want to provide the best solution on the market so we think its worth it.
The photo below shows some of the off tool parts at various stages in the development process. Each part represents a change in the design, material hardness and final surface texture. It hasn't been an easy process as we're mighty happy with the results!

Watched several of your videos. Fun. I’m waiting for iPhone 5 mount. Got a ship date yet? Can we prepay for it? Do you have a distributor in California? If not can I be a distributor?
Looks good. Can’t wait to see the final project.
Keep me posted.
Cheers
Will you have the poncho ready at the same time?

Hi.I am a bit concerned about the bottom of your iPhone 5 case. Whilst I have been waiting for your case I have bought another case and the bottom looks exactly the same as your case. The problem I have with this case is: 1) The connector for my Etymotic headphones does not fit through the opening for the headphone connector in the case. This means I have to take the case off to listen to music through my headphones. 2) The Apple adapter, that enables using an old charging cable with the iPhone 5 does not fit through the opening in the case. If I want to use Apple adapter I have to take the iPhone out of the case. I am concerned your iPhone 5 case is going to have the exact same problems. Have you tested it with a variety of headphone cables and the Apple connector adapter? Your iPhone 4 case had an open top and bottom so there was no problem with my headphone cable. I was hoping you would have gone the same way with your iPhone 5 case. (By the way I love your system and recommend it to all my friends)
