Which SP Connect bike mounts are best suited for mountain biking or gravel riding?Updated a month ago
For intensive use on a mountain bike (root sections, rock gardens, drops, hard impacts) or a gravel bike (gravel roads, washboard surfaces, rough field and forest trails), we recommend the following mounts:
Both models were specifically developed for rough, high-vibration terrain and offer additional protection for your smartphone thanks to integrated vibration damping in the mount head. They are also made from CNC-machined aircraft-grade aluminum, ensuring maximum stability and a secure hold — even under strong vibrations and repeated impacts.
Compatibility (Handlebar Diameter)
Both mounts are compatible with:
25.4 mm (Standard ISO 1")
31.8 mm (Oversized MTB / Dropbar 1 1/4")
35 mm (1 3/8")
Additional Feature: Mounting an Action Cam or Front Light
As a practical extra, you can also optionally attach:
the Bike Front Light 270 StVZO or
a GoPro action camera*
Special Feature: Gravel Bike Mount Pro
The Gravel Bike Mount Pro features an extra-long design. This makes it particularly suitable if you:
ride different handlebar shapes,
already have accessories mounted (e.g., bell, bike computer, aero bar, bag holder), or
want to position your smartphone further forward to minimize the time your eyes leave the trail — especially on technical sections, gravel descents, and rough trails.
*Mounting a GoPro or the Bike Front Light 270 StVZO requires the Camera/Light Adapter Kit (not included with the Handlebar Mount Pro MTB or Gravel Bike Mount Pro).
