Does anyone have or know of where I might get such a thing? There's a pretty neat looking cycle computer app I fancy a go with, but a bit useless without a secure mount for the phone.

10 dollars shipping to the UK apparently - its obviously not waterproof though so not a lot of use in the UK this time of year.................

To waterproof, use an Ortlieb GPS bag

The Iphone and cycles dont sound like a good mix to me:-
i) An Iphone will soon crack and fall apart when you come off your bike
ii) the cycle computer app is ok but you have to have it on all the time and so the battery will soon go flat.

I always take a phone in case I have an accident and need rescuing. Happened once and without the phone it wouldnt have been so straightforward.

I use my Iphone for tracking routes etc, would never mount it to the bike though? put it in your bag FFS! waterproof and less likely to cost £400 odd to replace! believe me i know. on second one.

oh i and i use a app called trails and its bleeding fantastic!
