Hi I own one of these but the handlebar mount does not fit on my road bikes handle bars, anyone have any recommendations?

Take an old shirt, rip it to shreads, and stuff the shreads in the plastic mount to fill the free room between the mount and handlebars. That's all I do. Place entire mount and cloth in your bag when removing the light so the mount doesn't get stolen.

Not sure if the mount is too big or too small for your handlebars. If it is too big, even completely tightened up, you should be able to get a couple of rubber shims to take up the space. If the mount is too small, then you must have some mammoth handlebars! You could try putting it on your handlebar stem. The light can be swiveled, so you can mount it in any position. The other option would be to get an extension that attaches to the handlebars.

I would think that handlebar mounts would certainly be available from the manufacturer. Here is the URL for the website where you can order spare parts: http://www.shop.cygolite.com/

I'm not sure if you are asking about the width of the mounting bracket or the size/diameter of the handlebar it will fit on. The mounting bracket, that fits over the handlebars is adjustable to various sizes by using rubber shims wrapped around the bar. This is adurale bag and mount. Both my wife and I use them and really load them down, without having them rotate on the bar.

I agree with chuffyUSA and Randall S... I purchased one for my newly purchased Ultra Frame, and the mounting brackets/clamps DO NOT work with the Ultra Frame. Sending it back today.

The ring to mount is very small. I could not put on handlebars or anywhere else on my racer or touring bike. I just carry with me. It does give me confidence although I will try to out pedal the beasties if possible.

Yes. That's what I do. It does it all. I mounted to a post tho so not 100% your handle bars will clear (if mounted to a wall). I have a support post floor to rafters (4x4) that mine is lag bolted into. Measure your bars center of stem to end to make sure the mount is long enough to accommodate...

It appears it will work without the custom brackets. If you could post a picture from the rider's position shooting towards the handlebars and mirrors, that would help us now for sure. But otherwise, if not, you could either return them or purchase the custom brackets.

I don't think it will fit on a road bike but it works awesome on a mountain bike. I have two of them

I've actually seen it in a stroller before, just need to have the correct mount. Do a search for a "handlebar" mount here on Amazon

I got it for my sister, she said it worked great on her road bike, not sure what brand of bike she has.

It doesn't work if you want to mount the sensor on the rear wheel. I just tried it and no go. My handlebar is 34" from the sensor and it's too far away (max. is 27"). I need to return the unit and exchange it for a wired one.

I bought the Techmount Handlebar Mount Kit - Silver 3-30912S and it works great after 2 years it still looks great and I have put 32,000 miles on the bike since buying it. That includes some rainy days so I am very satisfied with the mount.

Make a duck tape sleeve and attach it to your bike with a velcro strap. Depending on the bike the inside of the stem might be a good mount location.

Not with the mount as it comes with the bell. It is made for a narrow handlebar. You might be able to mount it with extended screws.

I bought a set for my wife's 950. But I modded the handlebars so that I didn't have to go with longer cables. That probably why they aren't on the fitament list? Great product though! Great quality, and fast shipping!

You need to by whatever adaptor you need for your vehicle. I use mine on the handlebar on my two dirtbikes. Rugged mounts makes a couple of different adaptors and think about the length of the adaptor. I thought i would like the short arm, but ended up likening the longer arm so i don't have to look down as much and can keep my head up looking at road. I have used it a bunch and the unit works well.

I have two fairly high end mountain bike (Scott Spark 940 and Niner Air 9) and neither of these bikes are able to use the attachment. I haven't tried on my road bike but I am a little weary of hauling my kid on my carbon fiber road bike as I am not sure if the bike was designed for those type of forces.
