D.I.Y. bike light support

I bought a cheap bicycle light for my cheap bicycle.

It's basically held on by a rubber band method.

No matter which rung you stretched it to - it wobbled when riding.

 

Before I could find a solution it was stolen. Easy to steal.

 

So I bought another one.

Today I tried an adjustable pipe bracket.

Aesthetically it is not very pretty.

But rock solid when riding and theft will now require a slotted screwdriver or 8mm socket.

Re: A better bike light support.

Hello @Noyade 

 

I'm sorry to hear your bike light was stolen. The threaded clamp should make it harder for the light to be simply taken off. As you mentioned they'll need a screwdriver to remove it.
