A system for delivering a replacement heart valve implant may include the implant including an expandable framework and leaflets coupled to the framework, and a delivery device including a handle and an elongate catheter extending from the handle. The catheter includes an outer sheath and an inner shaft movably disposed within the outer sheath. The implant is releasably coupled to the inner shaft. The inner shaft includes an orientation lumen extending longitudinally within the inner shaft, the orientation lumen being offset from a central guidewire lumen of the inner shaft. The delivery device includes an orientation mandrel disposed within the orientation lumen, the orientation mandrel extending distally from the handle to a distal end proximate a closed distal end of the orientation lumen. The orientation mandrel is operably coupled to an orientation mechanism of the handle configured to apply compressive force or tensile force to the orientation mandrel.
