Um, a light rain will not toast your iPhone. With my iPhone6 mounted on my Quadlock, any hint of moisture, just quickly detach it and toss in your jersey pocket.

My sole complaint is leaving the iPhone screen on - combined with the necessary GPS tracking - will drain the battery in about two hours or so. On longer rides, I carry an external power charger to keep my phone fully charged. Or simply turn off the screen if I forget the external battery.

It's kind of cool to access a couple apps, texts, or e-mails at a stoplight. All while not interrupting the Strava feed.

I have the quad lock for my 7 plus. Works very well.

iPhone 6, just got one and can say, this device and the words 'race bike' should never be used in the same sentence.
It does not even come with me in my pocket. Completely inconvenient phone; happy that I did not pay for it.

I also use the Quad lock case all the time in order to protect the phone.
I'll probably buy the next QuadLock for Iphone 7 this Fall...

The iPhone 7 fits perfectly into the iPhone 6 case - if you need the camera you simply need to enlarge the camera hole with a file - have used the iPhone 7 in quad lock (6) case for 3000km without issue - and its waterproof so doesn't need clear waterproof front
