Can the bar swivel in the bracket, or is it fixed?

Not that I'm aware of because there is a lip where it meets the bracket hole, when you insertthe bar, that keeps it in place & unable to drop any lower. I don't know how you would be able to do it in reverse.

It may seem like it is locked in place, but once mounted it will swivel quite well......it needs to be broken in so to say....mine was tight but now it is fine....well worth the price. If this is not the case and yours is defective, just return it....but I think you will be fine once you have it installed and begin using it. GC

Hello, the hook does not swivel, it is fixed in place. Chrome plated. The wood is solid, however the bottom support bar/flat holder is ribbed plastic. Overall a good value, but not the top of the line.

you can...i did the same thing with mine and it works fine. you cant tell by the pictures, both ends of the bar have hole in them so you can bolt the bar to the brackets to keep the bar from spinning. I only bolted one end of my bar and it works perfect.

Yes, the bracket base is held on with a machine screw on each side that easily can be unscrewed. I removed the base to screw the base in place.

The bracket is adaptable to side mount, it's how I mounted mine. Mine was chromed, not SS.

Can the bar be turned so that the wall mount is on the side or end of the bar to allow for different mounting configurations? (For example inside a window encasement & other on a wall.)

My experience has been no. I have a standard and threaded bar. They are awesome on the standard bar, however they are loose on the threaded bar.

Yes there is definitely enough wiggle room to mount the bar upside down. I just walked over and checked mine.

Yes, there's a threaded adaptor that come with bracket. Not sure it it would be the most stable option though.

In looking at it I would say no. There is a screw right in the center that holds the bottom swivel plate in place.

No. There isn't any locking feature that I'm aware of. But it won't swivel unless you make it so...shouldn't be a problem.

No, it is not adjustable. However, if you are inclined, you can drill holes and move the bar where you want it. The unit is sturdy enough to handle drilling and some alterations.

NO it cant that I know of, it slides into long grooved rail system . First of all anyone that doesnt buy a helmet mount FIRST is looking for an accident. Once you buy the helmet mount you can raise it up and down and side to side with helmet mount...because your head will turn. A bar mounted light is ony used as a second option. I HAVE NEVER USED THE BRACKET..QUESTION ? WHY WOUlD YOU WANT IT TO SWIVEL ? Take my advice for what its worth 30 years if cycling and the helmet mount is the the only way to roll at night ..Peace

It can be done but not with the current brackets that come in the kit. Modifying the brackets might work also.

You could just not connect the mounting bar & bracket, kinda defeats the purpose though. I believe there's another model, ~$50 cheaper, that doesn't include the bar at all.
