Cup Holder?

[pearlbeer]

Looking for a good cup holder for my coffee/beer. Gimbaled would be nice. I'm also having a tough time finding cup holders that have a well engineered clamping mechanism - most seem to rotate on the bar eventually.

I like the ones from Public Bikes. Not gimbaled. Secure. Make sure you have a good lid on your cup. Even a tiny ventalation hole will slosh coffee on your bike.

I did the Arundel Looney adjustable drink holder. It has a knob to adjust to different size drink mugs to larger water bottles.

$25, Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JMLULB6/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I just did a search for handlebar cup holder and saw a ton. Make sure that it is turns at the same axis as the stem, facing you, for stability.

Those Looney adjustable cages are sturdy. On my beach cruiser I have those silly coconut bottle holders. I got lucky and found some at a hardware store with nice clamps! I picture dumb though, sorry.

I had a similar issue with rotating bike cup holder. Check out RAM Mounts, they have gimbaled cup holders with a sturdy clamping mechanism. They're known for their durability and flexibility in mounting options.

I've had good luck with this one:

As the product photos suggest, it can handle containers that are any combo of rigid, straight-sided, and oversized, like a typical stainless thermos. Any of those attributes would be a deal-killer for a regular bottle cage.

The twist cinch couldn't easier to use and is very secure — even on bumpy trails. Would buy again.

Standard frame mount only, but others might have ideas for mounting it on handlebars.

I use the RAM cup holder mentioned by @Mikehemis above:

The RAM® Level Cup™ self-leveling drink holder is the perfect accessory for a wide variety of vehicles and use cases, including motorcycles, ATVs, UTVs, boats, kayaks, and much more. With two pivot points, the self-leveling feature allows your drink to stay upright – even in the most demanding...

It's gimbaled, and has a removeable foam insulator for aluminum cans.

I attach it to the bars with these RAM clamps. They hold securely and can articulate into almost any position:

RAM® Double Socket Arm - B Size Short

The RAM-B-201U-A consists of a short double socket arm that accommodates 1" B size ball bases, device holders, and adapters. With an overall length 2.42", this is the lowest profile RAM® double socket arm size. The easy to adjust knob allows for near-infinite adjustability for your connected device.

The handlebar ball mount can also be used with many other RAM products to hold cell phones, GPS, lights, etc.

What about a beer hat ??

It would be as Gimbaled as your your head so when you start spilling it's time to stop drinking.
