Take one pretty generic spring-loaded PDA holder, one bicycle handlebar clip and some zeitgeist branding and you get the iPhone Bike Mount Holder.  Ostensibly an ideal way to both watch movies while cycling and to crash into cars and railings, USBfever are suggesting that it might be safer to just use it to play music during your eco-friendly, thigh-chafing commute.  They also claim the mount is “quakeproof”, which should be a reassuring fact when you’re catching air off of the speed bumps.

Of course, this isn’t just for the iPhone, they’ve just seized on that as the gadget-of-the-moment.  That doesn’t make it a bad accessory, per se, just a lazy one.  An iPhone-specific cradle could’ve recharged your cellphone via one of those generators that more usually powers a lamp.

If you’re still interested (and I suppose it’s safer than digging around in your bag or pocket whenever you want to change the track), it’s available now and priced at $14.99.  Alternatively, you could make your own.  eBay has plenty of PDA holders listed from $0.99, and you could salvage the mount from an old bike light.
