Flashlight Enthusiast
I've seen that many people, rather than using bike specific lights, use their regular flashlights mounted to the handlebars. My L&M Vega just broke (sheared the screw that holds the mount to the light), so it's out of commission until I send it in and get it back.
In the meantime, I'm either stuck with my old Cateye HL-EL500, which I hate beyond human comprehension, or finding some way to mount one of my flashlights to my handlebars using some method that's better than ducttaping it. I'll probably be using my Fenix L1P since I've got several NiMH AAs lying around, and the runtime is enough on 1 battery for me to get home at night.
I've read about some sort of strapping system, but I can't remember what it's called (and using Search doesn't turn up what I'm looking for). Or, is there some sort of universal mount that can clamp a flashlight inside? Whatever method I use, it must be aimable.
Thanks.
