Holder not secure on handlebars
Ensure the hook and loop straps are tightened sufficiently. Check if the straps are long enough for your handlebar diameter; consider alternative mounting points if necessary.
Device does not fit
Verify that your device's dimensions do not exceed 145 x 95 x 30mm. If it does, this holder is not compatible.
