The only thing that I see that can rotate 180 is the post to what the handlebar is attached, rotating it means that you also need to rotate the handlebar.
It's like this?
That's how I understand it. Seems you can get the bar 3-4 cm closer to you that way. I haven't tried it. It would also mean that the pin in the post would face backwards, where there are no holes for it to lock into. So the only thing securing the bar is then the quickrelease clamp. Would be nasty if it came loose when you hit a pothole on the way down a hill. Be careful.

I also have only one.
