SP Connect – Connect your active life
Whether you’re navigating on a motorcycle, mounting your smartphone in the car, or using a secure mount while cycling, SP Connect specializes in solutions that let you quickly and safely integrate your smartphone into your everyday life.
This is especially handy on a motorcycle. Instead of having to take your smartphone out of your pocket every time you stop to check your navigation, you can position it right in your field of vision with a compatible motorcycle phone mount. Depending on your motorcycle and cockpit, there are various mounting options available.
What makes SP Connect special is its system-based approach: SP Connect phone cases, mounts, adapters, and accessories are designed as a coordinated system. This allows you not only to use your smartphone on your motorcycle, but also to expand your setup to include solutions for your car, bike, or everyday life, for example.
What sets SP Connect apart?
SP Connect combines a compact design with a modular mounting system. For many applications, the system is based on the appropriate SP Phone Case or a universal smartphone solution. The smartphone can then be connected to compatible mounts.
For motorcyclists, SP Connect offers various solutions for different mounting positions. In addition to classic handlebar mounts, the product line includes solutions for mirrors, the cockpit, and other mounting points. The mounts are complemented by vibration dampers and charging accessories.
A good example of this is the Moto Mount Pro. The rugged SP Connect mount attaches to the motorcycle handlebars and can be adjusted in three dimensions—or 360 degrees. This allows you to position your smartphone to suit your seating position and viewing angle.
What does SP Connect stand for?
SP Connect stands above all for connection, flexibility, and an active lifestyle. The smartphone isn’t just meant to be carried around—it should remain useful while you’re on the go.
This is also reflected in the brand’s tagline: “Connect your active life.”
The product line is therefore not exclusively geared toward motorcycles. SP Connect develops solutions for motorcycles, bicycles, cars, fitness, and everyday life. Anyone who already uses a compatible system can therefore expand it for different activities.
For motorcyclists, the focus is particularly on the combination of ease of use, secure mounting, and good readability. This allows navigation apps to be used while riding without requiring a separate navigation device for every use.
The Development of SP Connect – From 1988 to Today
The history behind SP Connect dates back to 1988, when entrepreneur Thomas Krenn founded his first company in Birgel, Germany, to develop and manufacture his own snowboard bindings. From these beginnings emerged, among other things, the brand SP Bindings, which still exists today. Over the following years, the company continued to evolve both technologically and internationally. In particular, expertise in the areas of toolmaking, mold making, and plastic injection molding was expanded, while at the same time new product lines and markets were tapped.
Since the 1990s, the company has had a central headquarters in Vienna, where functions such as product development, design, technology, marketing, sales, and international sourcing have been consolidated. Another important step was the expansion of the company’s own production facilities in China. Starting in 2002, products from various private labels were manufactured there, and the international sales network was continuously expanded. The decisive milestone for today’s SP Connect brand finally came in 2016: After intensive development work, the SP Connect smartphone mounting system was launched on the market. At the heart of the system was a specially developed smartphone case with an integrated mounting mechanism, which allows the smartphone to be securely attached to a compatible mount with a simple 90-degree rotation. From this basic principle, a comprehensive, modular product system evolved in the years that followed.
In addition to smartphone cases, the product line now includes, among other things, smartphone mounts for motorcycles and bicycles, SP Connect adapters, universal mounts, vibration dampers, charging and power supply solutions, and mounts for cars, scooters, sports, and everyday use. The system has been continuously refined, particularly in the motorcycle sector, for example through high-quality handlebar mounts such as the Moto Mount Pro, as well as solutions for reducing vibrations and charging smartphones while riding. At the same time, SP Connect has expanded internationally: The brand is part of SP United Holding AG, has locations in Austria, Germany, Switzerland, China, and the U.S., among other places, and distributes its products worldwide. As a result, the company has evolved from a manufacturer of snowboard bindings into an internationally oriented provider of modular smartphone mounting systems.
Today, SP Connect is primarily known for connecting smartphones and mobility— from motorcycles and bicycles to cars, sports, and everyday life—thus consistently advancing the brand’s original vision under the guiding principle “Connect your active life!”.

- Smartphone mounts for motorcycles
- SP Connect Phone Cases
- Universal Smartphone Mounts
- SP Connect Adapters
- Vibration Dampers
- Wireless Charging Modules
- Power Banks and Power Supplies
- Mounts for Mopeds and Scooters

This allows you to put together a setup that’s tailored to your motorcycle, smartphone, and desired mounting position.
SP Connect Moto Mount Pro – High-Quality Smartphone Mount for Motorcycles
The SP Connect SPC Moto Mount Pro is one of the most interesting solutions if you’re looking for a high-quality smartphone mount for your motorcycle.
The mount is designed for various standard and oversized handlebars and can be flexibly adjusted. This allows you to position your smartphone in portrait or landscape orientation and use it for navigation, for example.
The mount is constructed from high-quality CNC-machined aluminum. Stainless steel mounting parts further enhance corrosion resistance.
This makes the Moto Mount Pro particularly suitable for riders looking for a compact and stable solution that attaches directly to the motorcycle handlebars.
SP Connect SPC Brake Mount – alternative mounting position
Not every motorcycle has enough space on the handlebars for a traditional smartphone mount. This is exactly where alternative mounting options come into play.
The SP Connect SPC Brake Mount allows for a different positioning within the cockpit and can thus serve as a practical alternative to the classic handlebar mount.
Which mount is suitable for your motorcycle generally depends on the specific vehicle, the available mounting points, and your desired smartphone position.
SP Connect SPC Scooter Bundle Universal Clamp
SP Connect also offers suitable solutions for scooter riders.
The SP Connect SPC Scooter Bundle with Universal Clamp is designed for riders who want to securely mount their smartphone on their vehicle and use it, for example, for navigation.
Especially on scooters, handlebar and cockpit designs often differ significantly from those of classic motorcycles. A universal mount can therefore be an attractive solution.
SP Connect SPC Smartphone Case
The SP Connect smartphone case is a central component of the system.
It protects your smartphone in everyday use while also connecting it to compatible SP Connect mounts. This allows you to use your smartphone with the same basic system on a motorcycle, bicycle, or in a car, for example.
SP Connect offers phone cases tailored to various smartphone manufacturers and models, as well as universal solutions for devices for which no model-specific case is available.
SP Connect SPC Wireless 10,000 mAh Power Bank
Navigation, GPS, and a constantly active display backlight can put a heavy strain on your smartphone’s battery during longer trips.
With the SP Connect SPC Wireless 10,000 mAh Power Bank, you can therefore add a mobile power source to your setup. An additional power source is especially handy on longer motorcycle trips or journeys when a power outlet isn’t always available on the go.
SP Connect also offers other power supply solutions. These include, among other things, inductive charging modules and weatherproof cables for connecting to the motorcycle battery.
SP Connect SPC Car Charging Suction Cup Mount
The SP Connect system doesn’t end at the motorcycle.
With the SP Connect SPC Car Charging Suction Cup Mount, you can also use your smartphone in the car. This makes the system particularly useful if you regularly use your smartphone in different vehicles.
Instead of using completely separate smartphone systems for your motorcycle and car, you can combine compatible components within the SP Connect product family.
FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions About SP Connect
Where does the SP Connect brand come from?
SP Connect is part of the international SP United Holding AG, which has Austrian roots. The company’s history began in 1988, when Thomas Krenn founded a company in Birgel, Germany, to manufacture snowboard bindings. Since the mid-1990s, the company has been headquartered in Vienna. The SP Connect smartphone mounting system was launched in 2016.
Can I mount SP Connect mounts on any motorcycle?
Not every SP Connect motorcycle mount automatically fits every motorcycle. The specific mount, the available mounting point, and the dimensions of your motorcycle are key factors.
The Moto Mount Pro, for example, is designed for several standard and oversize handlebar diameters. SP Connect offers additional solutions for other handlebar configurations. Therefore, always check the product specifications and the dimensions of your motorcycle before purchasing.
Are SP Connect magnetic mounts bad for the battery?
With compatible SP Connect products, the magnetic mount is part of the intended system. For motorcyclists, however, another point is particularly important: Vibrations can put a strain on sensitive smartphone cameras with mechanical or optical image stabilization.
SP Connect therefore recommends using a compatible anti-vibration module with such smartphones. This reduces the vibrations transmitted to the smartphone, thereby providing additional protection for sensitive components.
Can I also use my SP Connect mount in the car?
A motorcycle mount is designed specifically for its intended mounting location and cannot simply be used as a car mount. The advantage lies rather in the modular SP Connect system.
With a compatible smartphone case, you can use different mounts. For cars, for example, SP Connect offers suction cup, vent, and other vehicle mounts. This allows you to use your smartphone on both your motorcycle and in your car within the same system.
Are SP Connect mounts weatherproof?
That depends on the specific product. SP Connect develops numerous components specifically for outdoor and motorcycle use. For example, the Moto Mount Pro uses corrosion-resistant stainless steel mounting parts. Certain electronic components, such as the Charging Module, are explicitly described by the manufacturer as weatherproof or fully weatherproof.
Nevertheless, you should pay attention to the specifications of each product, as not every case, mount, or electronic component automatically offers the same level of protection against water and the elements.
Conclusion: SP Connect for Motorcyclists
If you regularly use your smartphone on your motorcycle for navigation or trip planning, SP Connect offers a versatile and expandable system.
The major advantage lies in how the components work together: A compatible SP Connect phone case or universal solution forms the foundation, while you can choose between different mounting options depending on your motorcycle. With an SP Connect adapter, vibration dampener, or charging accessories, you can then further customize the setup to meet your needs.
From the rugged Moto Mount Pro to solutions for scooters, smartphone cases, power banks, and car mounts, SP Connect covers a wide range of applications. What’s particularly convenient is that your smartphone isn’t limited to a single use case: motorcycles, bicycles, cars, the gym, or everyday life can all be part of the same system.
