I have two of the plastic Fenix torch mounts for my lights (TK11 and L2D) but since putting O/S bars on the mounts aren't really big enough to go round. What do people tend to use? Are the velcro lockblock things any good? ta.

lockblocks are way wobbly. Do not like.

are the way forward

fir perfectly onto an OX bar without an shim. QR both sides for torch/bar removal. I've used a bit of glue to keep it pointing forwards all the time bu mine have been great.

I use a quick release block for some cheap commuter light, which I got from chain reaction, and a jubilee clip. Since switching to OS bars I just mount the torch further out.

Thanks Jon for the tip, I will peruse that in more detail presently. Mr 'wind yeah I mounted the lights right out at the side but I couldn't really get to the tightening bolts cos the levers/brakes were in the way...
