I've an Aldi front light, which is rather good for commuting.

The mount however it's just cheap silicone and after a few years it's snapped. The light body screws on with what looks like an SPD size bolt, through a hole in the bar mount.

My Google-skillz have let me down on finding a replacement clamp - any suggestions?

Exposure bar mount?
I've done this, for a Busch & Muller Ixon light.
Might not make as much financial sense, for a budget Aldi light, though.

Cheers all - I'll browse, it seems daft to throw out a perfectly functioning light.
