Ram Quick Grip XL (Ram-HOL-PD4U), Torque Small Rail Mount (Ram-B-408-37-62U) & Ram Double Socket Short Arm (Ram-B-201U-A) The T7 accessory bar is only 11.8  mm diameter necessitating smaller brackets for a secure mount.  I had been happy with the Ram X-Grip on previous road bikes including my S10, but wanted the more secure Quick Grip for off-roading with the T7 & had seen positive reviews.  It utilizes large curved double clamps top & bottom that are spring loaded on 1 end & incorporates adjustable side brackets with 3 mounting locations per side to accommodate different sized phones & button locations. The Ram Torque bar mount (1" B ball/socket size) uses rubber as an insulator/grip for its mount & ships with 4 different sized bushings to accommodate differing bar diameter sizes  (0.375" - 0.625")  + I added bicycle inner tube between the ram ball mount bracket & the Quick Grip to help quell vibration.      There has been lots of vibration i
