FAQs
Do I need a special phone case to use this holder?
Yes, the SKS Compit Anywhere requires a specific SKS smartphone cover or bag designed for the Compit system. The holder attaches to this cover, not directly to the phone or a generic case.
What size phones can it hold?
The holder itself is designed to work with the SKS Compit smartphone covers, which are available for various phone sizes. The mounting system is universal for bars.
Can I attach it to my bike's seatpost?
While it can attach to various bars, the primary intended mounting points are handlebars, stems, and top tubes for optimal visibility and stability. Seatpost mounting may be less practical for screen viewing.
Is the blue color fade-resistant?
The product is designed for outdoor use, but prolonged exposure to intense sunlight may cause gradual fading over time, as with most colored plastics.
How do I clean the holder?
Wipe the holder with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the finish or materials.
What is the maximum diameter bar it can fit?
The 30 cm long rubberised fastener offers considerable length and flexibility, accommodating most standard bicycle handlebars, stems, and similar bars. It's designed for a secure wrap-around fit.
Does it come with the smartphone cover?
No, the SKS Compit Anywhere holder does not include the required smartphone cover or bag. This must be purchased separately.
Troubleshooting
Holder feels loose on the handlebar
Ensure the hook and loop fastener is tightened securely. Check that the slip-resistant locking rings are properly attached and aligned. Make sure the mounting bar is clean and dry before attaching.
Phone not securely held
Verify that you are using a compatible SKS Compit smartphone cover or bag. Ensure the cover/bag is correctly attached to the holder mechanism. Check if the phone itself is properly seated within its cover.
Fastener won't stay tight
Clean the hook and loop surfaces on both the fastener and the holder to remove any dirt or lint that may be hindering adhesion. If the fastener is worn, consider replacement.
Difficulty adjusting tilt angle
Gently but firmly adjust the tilt mechanism. Ensure no debris is obstructing the adjustment joint. Consult the product manual if resistance is unusually high.
