How in the world do you mount this to a bicycle handle bar? The headband and the 2 rubber rings won't work. I need to mount it on a bicycle. Help.

I had no room on my handlebar. So I mounted it sideway on my forward tube with cable zipties

according to the size diameter of your handle bars you use proper rubber rings bigger bars use bigger rubber ring smaller bars smaller rubber ring , rubber rings go wrapped around bars and attach on two ears on light located on bottom of light one in front and one in the back

its not that easy but the band goes around the bottom of the handle bar and on to the base of the light. it needs to be tight to stay in place

I have the same problem, and when I use the rubber o-rings it sits a little crooked, so I purchased the Hope Universal handlebar mount and that works a lot better. Also it sits a little higher so it clears the stem on the handlebars.

Hmm, what kind of bike and most importantly, handlebar, do you have? I have no problems at all mounting it on mine using one of the provided rubber rings. You should find images or videos about it using google.

For me I just set the rounded depression on the bottom of the light on the handle bar. I took the smaller rubber band and wrapped it over the front groove of the mount, then stretched it under the bar and over the groove on the back of the mount. The tension in the rubber band held it tightly in place. Please tell me what is happening for you and I will try to help.

I used the rubber bands but it depends on the thickness of your handlebars. I can take a picture if you like.

Not sure if it is the same. This one requires a mount of some sort. I made mine to suit my needs, it does not mount to my handle bars. I really like the mount it kept my GPS up and running for a week 10-12 hours a day while riding in Colorado with no problems. Hope this help.

I don't believe it fits that application - likely need a handle bar type mount.

I have a lefty and so I had some challenges trying to figure a way to mount it. Apparently Cannondale makes a mount ($20) to put computers on their lefties. Things have been fine since. Just make sure you mount the magnet and the sensor somewhere that is a constant. Sensor goes on your lower fork, that way it stays at the same place as your tire while going through the paces of the mountains. I have two of em. They work 98% of the time. They start getting dodgy when their batteries get low, but that is to be expected. I reccomend it.

Turn the Three pointed knob clockwise to tighten it on your handlebar. Used mine again last weekend at the Sugarpine MC Rally. It was a little loose so I turned the knob and tightened it right up!

You can modify the head strap to mount it on your helmet. I removed the piece that normally goes from the lamp down the back of the head. Then I used the remaining headband to firmly attach the base to my helmet by threading it through two of the vent holes. Not quick to remove, but it stays solidly in place and I didn't have to spend any extra money.

I purchased 2 pair. One for my motorcycle and one for my daughters car. My motorcycle i attached them to my highway bars using the sticky mount that comes with it and added a zip tie. On my daughters car, I took off the front plate bracket and drilled two small holes through the top and use two little screws to attach the mounting bracket to the plate bracket. Then slid on the whistle and re attached the plate bracket. Sounds a little confusing but not really. Hope this helps.

If your handle bars come out like a bike you might make it work you might have to get different straps to hold it on to . It is a nice basket ans sometimes you can get anything to work . You can always send it back .

Probably not without some work and/or luck. The mount provided is for use on handlebars. Unless your helmet has some sort of ventilation ribs that are on the forward part of the helmet and are perpendicular to the front of the helmet, you are out of luck. I imagine if you are a handy type of person you could rig something up to work but I would recommend looking at another product if you want to mount it on your helmet.

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.

I have Ram mounts for my motorcycles and my Jeeps. The mount your looking at appears to be one I have that uses a U-Bolt that mounts the other attachments to the handlebar. I also have one like that to mount on the two bolts that hold the turn signals and horn button on my Harley Davidson motorcycle. If you take the mount to a hardware store you can find a U-bolt that will fit them. I can't think of anything the bolt holes would fit, e.g., cameras, GPS etc.

You have to put it somewhere on your handlebar where there's no gadgets or wire. Just like the picture. If there's no place... Then you have to make space by moving "stuff" around. Google Yamaha Zuma 50 ram mount & look for the Zuma forums. They have pictures of different types of mounts that can perhaps guide you.

Attach mounting brackets that are shaped in half circles to the handlebars using screws. Next you will need to attach the arm rests to the top of the mounting brackets. Make sure the foam pads are removed from the arm rests. They are attached with velcro and should peel off. You should see holes that you need to put an allen screw through. Line up the holes on the arm rest and on the mounts that attached to your handlebars. Once screws tightened down, apply the foam pads and take for a spin to see what kind of adjustments need to be made for comfort. Loosen screws on mounting brackets to move left or right. Loosen screws on arm rests to change angle in or out. Hope this helps. Attach mounting brackets that are shaped in half circles to the handlebars using screws.

The mounting / clip system came with the bag.It did not fit my handle bars, even with two different size rings.

You're right on time. I've had several of these questions how to mount to an MTB helmet but I cannot explain it in typing. So I'm doing a youtube video how to do it since it's more 'visual' how to solve your problem. For your second question, yes, you can 'make' it be interchangeable with two helmets, but you will need a new 3M adhesive pad installed on the second helmet to make it possible. Stay tuned, it'll take a week to complete my youtube video. It'll be on youtube and do a keyword for my username: sticksofkansas.

I had to rig mine. But I was able to remove the screw and mount it came with. used a dremil and a thick piece of plastic and make a mount for my gopro. A totally easier way, is to just zip tie it, or wire tie it to your helmet through some existing holes in the helmet.

Not sure what type of mounting you require, but this bike light mounting works great on the handlebars.
