Can I change the orientation of my smartphone on the Handlebar Mount Pro MTB?Updated 18 hours ago
Yes. The SP Connect Handlebar Mount Pro MTB allows you to use your smartphone in either portrait (vertical) or landscape (horizontal) orientation.
To change the orientation, you need to adjust the position of the mounting head using an Allen key.
How to Change the Smartphone Orientation
- Remove your smartphone: Detach your smartphone from the Handlebar Mount Pro MTB before making any adjustments.
- Loosen the mounting head: Use the appropriate Allen key to loosen the screw securing the mounting head.
- Adjust the orientation: Rotate the mounting head by 90° to switch between portrait and landscape orientation.
- Secure the mounting head: Tighten the screw again, ensuring that the mounting head is firmly secured.
- Reattach your smartphone: Mount your smartphone using the SP Connect Twist-to-Lock mechanism.
Can I Change the Orientation Without Tools?
The standard mounting head of the Handlebar Mount Pro MTB does not support tool-free rotation between portrait and landscape orientation.
However, the separately available Rotation Module, combined with the Mag-Align Head A, offers an alternative for compatible Handlebar Mount Pro MTB versions.
This combination allows you to switch between portrait and landscape orientation without using tools.
Important: Compatibility with these accessories depends on the mounting interface of your Handlebar Mount Pro MTB. Older versions may not support this upgrade.
