Navigation » Connecte Cradle 3D-printed cover/shade

This year during the summer tour season I fount that most frequently the exposed cradle position on the RS leads to either screen illegibility and phone overheating in more or less direct sunlight. It could also benefit from a slightly steeper incline towards the rider but...

I've found something on the link below and asked a friend with the 3D printer if he can make it work - 10 hours later and this is the result. (link broken-up to hopefully be shown)

Per instructions on the site I'm planning to fix it to the cradle with either glued on velcro bits or to be honest some of my trusty pillions hair ties. The plastic is thick and sturdy enough and shows promise in terms of sunshade and screen legibility on the test ride I did.

Hopefully your shield was printed with ASA and not ABS or PET. ABS and PET don't do well with heat and sun exposure.
