One of the best ways to get the maximum out of your training sessions is to have an iPad 2, 3, 4, Air or iPad Mini strapped to your handlebars to supply some entertainment! Because seriously, sometimes getting motivated isn’t at all easy, so having your iPad handy is just perfect to get through those boring moments!
The Zip-Grip Treadmill Handlebar protector enables you to safely mount your iPad to the handlebar of your bike, treadmill, or any device with cylindrical bars or posts using a quick release strap that allows fast mounting and easy removal.
The grip is equipped with an easy to adjust swivel-ball head, perfect for mounting, which helps provide maximum flexibility in positioning the iPad according to your preference; you can mount your tablet in the vertical or landscape position and adjust its angle accordingly for better viewing. The strap has sufficient length to ensure safe and sturdy mounting on bars, posts, or frames with dimensions that range from 15 mm to 50 mm.
The protector also has adjustable legs that will keep the buttons and ports of your device free, so you can conveniently access all functions or plug in accessories like earphones and memory devices to your tablet as you need them. It can handle all versions of the Apple iPad Mini, even if it’s equipped with a carrying case.
Though it is designed specifically for the iPad Mini, you can also use it for the regular iPad with the case attached or similarly sized mobile devices but only in the landscape position since the mounting will be a bit unsteady if you put it in the portrait or vertical position.
It’s fairly easy to strap your device, just follow the instructions provided with the Zip-Grip. It has two sets of clamps for use with varying sizes of the iPad, with each set having four pieces of the same length that you can use to attach your device firmly. Choose the set of clamps with the correct size that provides a steady and firm grip on your iPad. For example, you can have a configuration that uses four of the same-size clamps, or have two of each size.
Once you have clamped the iPad in the position you want, use the provided plugs to keep the clamps firmly in place. Once fitted firmly with the rounded edge facing out, the plugs will prevent the clamps from sliding out. Then use the spring-loaded base of the mount to keep your iPad securely fastened on your handlebars. You can adjust the position of your iPad so that it is angled against the handlebars for added stability.
For around $20, this Zip-Grip Handlebar protector is perfect for keeping you entertained during your training session. It keeps your iPad mounted securely at any angle that provides you an excellent view of the screen, meaning no more boring sessions to slave your way through – keep track of your messages, listen to music, or watch your favorite video without missing a pedal stroke!
