How stiff is the gooseneck. Is it necessary to add the additional clamps as shown in the pictures above?

It's about a 1/2" solid thick aluminum rod inside the sleeve, so very sturdy. If you bend it too many times it gets weak quick. I love mine and have two. One in a rock crawler that survived the Rubicon trail. If that tells you anything

It has d a good job for me in a Jeep CJ 7, use it to hold a Galaxy Note 2 in a very rough ridding vehicle.

It's stiff enough to hold my Nokia 970 without any problem. pretty much at any angle. It is subject to wobbling a bit when the car is moving. No big deal for me but I guess it would depend on what you want it to do.

The gooseneck is a flexible pot-metal. It's pretty rigid, but after a few times moving it around, it broke...and then after I cut some off and fixed it, it broke again.

It doesn't lose the shape but will shake with the car. My older phone would occasionally reset because of the shaking... a reset if the phone is dropped feature. If you are talking about the two left/right clamps... yes. They are also useful because you don't always want the phone in portrait mode. With the clamps you can turn it on it's side.

Yes, just make sure you get the right one. There is a square adapter and a round one. Get the one for your gooseneck. I screwed up and got the wrong one the first go around.

Yes. When you receive the gooseneck, you have to assemble the base, neck, and head.

The mic holder is open-ended and will flex to accommodate and grip most dynamic microphones. That being said the end of the gooseneck is threaded at a standard diameter so if your mic came with a holder or you want to use a shockmount you should be able to use them just fine.

Yes. The clamps you see are simply a great system for holding the cover end in place and for easily releasing it to role up out of the way. I installed one of these recently on my Honda Ridgeline and it is very well made and the looks are top notch! Holding up great this winter in all weather up here in Wa State.

The gooseneck is about a foot and a half long and is very pliable. I can recommend it. I'm currently using mine with a MLX 900 on a desk stand.

I believe so to the clamps. Inset with a 33 lb mtn bike. It can get tippy esp if the height adjust is full out.

Yes you do need to buy a clamp sold separately, but I have people installing the string going through the bow cable, in which case there is no need for clamp, but that looks more complicated.

You'll need to use the existing clamp that tightens the saddle onto the bike. But all other hardware is included with the purchase. I bought this saddle for my wife trike and she loves it.

As far as I can tell, this clamp is designed to be used with two different diameters, as in a barrel and a flashlight. Also, there may not be enough clearance between barrel and magazine extension to allow the mount halves to come together. I have a magazine extension on a Mossberg shotgun and found that the clamp it came with actually pushed the extension out of alignment with the magazine. I took the clamp off and never had a problem with the magazine spring binding or shells getting stuck. The threads on the extension were more than strong enough to support it. If you are worried about the extension backing out, you can put a little nail polish on the threads, but that may cause you problems if you want to get it off. Just screw it on hand tight and that should be enough to keep it in place. Happy Shooting !!!!!!!

It takes some modification and tweaking. I had to use some alligator clips and test leads then I pulled the spring a little. Do a search of the web to see what mods or hacks others have done.

I installed mine, but I didn't care for the clamp on string serving so I had a professional bow technician serve the rest string to my bow string.

I recently installed mine and had to make about a 270 degree adjustment from snug. I had to put my upper in a padded vice and used a long round punch through the slots for leverage. It took a grunt with two hands but it came around. I'm sure I could have gone further.

I believe it is a 2-Hi . and the Gooseneck is very flexible, but retains its stability nicely.

Hey Tom: I'm not sure personally that I would trust clamps to hold this on, especially if you are hauling a canoe or kayak(s), which could catch a lot of wind and create significant shearing force that could destabilize the rack and cause it to slide off. I'm not physics major or engineer, but that's my two cents.

No need for additional hardware. Use the screws from original grip. I love the feel of the Hogue rubber grips. You will be pleased too.

When I received mine, it was new in the box. It should have 6 clamps, 4 rails (one with the cover attached), and 3 support ribs.
