Orienteering Map Board – Short Stem

The XR-Gear Orienteering Map Board – Short Stem is built for adventure racers and orienteers who demand fast, hands-free map access on technical terrain. Designed specifically for short-stem handlebars, this board keeps your map exactly where you need it — directly in your line of sight — so you never have to slow down to check your route.

Crafted from durable, lightweight carbon fiber ASA composite, the board resists flex, moisture, and the abuse of multi-hour races across any terrain. The 360-degree tool-free rotation system lets you dial in the perfect angle in seconds, while the secure Velcro attachment system holds firm through roots, rocks, and rough descents.

Why It Works

• Short-Stem Optimized – Designed to fit standard short-stem handlebar setups common in mountain biking and adventure racing
• 360° Tool-Free Rotation – Adjust map angle on the fly without stopping or using any tools
• Lightweight Composite Construction – Carbon fiber ASA keeps the board rigid without adding noticeable weight to your cockpit
• Velcro Attachment System – Holds your map flat and secure through vibration, mud, and rain
• Replaceable Parts – Components can be swapped out individually, extending the life of your board
• Compatible with XR-Gear Accessories – Works with magnetic markers, compass bands, and the metal board upgrade

Built for Race Day

Whether you're navigating a Rogaine, multi-sport race, or solo bikepacking route, the Short Stem Map Board eliminates the fumble of pulling a map from a pocket or glancing down at a phone. Your map stays mounted, visible, and protected — so your focus stays on moving fast and reading terrain.
