While some find it easy to assemble and sturdy, others have had issues with the plastic bracket breaking or the holder not fitting their tablet or handlebar properly. The narrow width of the clamps and the inability to use the holder with a case on the tablet are also mentioned as drawbacks. However, many customers appreciate the cantilevered design and the ability to hold the tablet in landscape mode. Overall, the Tacx Handlebar Tablet Holder may work well for some users, but others may need to consider alternative options.

Unique product but not worth the money

I rate products based on their intended use, cost of product, quality of product, and if needed, the customer support. The TACX Handlebar brace is a very unique product in that it allows the user to hold an iPad in landscape mode using only the handlebar and stem. 3 adjustment knobs allow the clamps...

Double check tablet sizing first

The size of tablet this mount can hold is a bit limiting. It's unlikely to be able to hold many tablet with a case on them. I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10" that just fits, but I can't use that tablet for my bike trainer applications. The apps I like (Sufferfest and Zwift) don't work on that partic...

Proper rubber inserts for 31.8 mm handlebars not included

It's a decent product. Easy to assemble. The product is supposed to have 3 sets of shims for handlebar diameters ranging from 26 to 35 mm; mine came with 1 set for the 26 mm and 2 sets for the 35 mm extreme. The end result isn't bad; it's just not right. The curved piece that is to be inserted on th...

Great quality...limited adjustability.

The Tacx Handle Bracket is very well made. Easily attaches to my bike for my indoor training experience. The issue is that I own an Iphone 7 / Ipad Pro. The item is too small to safely hold the ipad and too big to safely hold my iphone7. They need an accessory to extent the side arms to hold my ipad...

The product is nicely styled but very flimsy when using a Samsung Tablet with a safety cover. The mounts don't accommodate the cover I use and has fallen off the handlebars each time I've used the setup. I probably should have bought a bracket that is more substantial but I was swayed by the price.

Broke after a few rides

Used product to hold an iPad on my Wahoo cycle trainer. Unfortunately, the plastic bracket that goes under the handlebar stem broke after a few rides when I bumped it while adjusting the chain. Product needs a more robust design or stronger material

It is hard to get on the bike with the cables in the way. It also won’t work if you have a k-edge or other outfront garmin mount. Other than that. It works as advertised.

High quality and well thought out (see caveats)

High quality and well thought out. Pro: Sturdy, cantilevered design is compact and solidly holds an iPad or similar sized tablet, neatly, and elegantly. Pro: Works great with the Tacx app and any other app optimized for landscape orientation. Con: Not really designed to hold a full-size tablet in po...
