morning peeps,

so ive broken the mount off of the underside of my solarstorm in a comedy OTB incident into a bog, anyone know where I can get a replacement...kinda seems wrong to just buy a new head unit for ~ £13

or other recommendations, anything in the sales...£25 max!

Head or bar mount?

For bar, I believe ppl have managed to fit them to the [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/hope-universal-handlebar-mount/rp-prod23533 ]Hope light mount[/url] or cheaper still (and maybe a bit more bodging) is the [url= http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_708503_langId_-1_categoryId_273919 ]Halford offering[/url]

It’s the actual bracket that’s screwed to the underside of the head unit, where you attach the O ring.
That hope one seems good, but if the screw doesn’t fit think I may be better off buying a new head unit…

I know what your saying, but I imagine you could re-use the old screw with the halford or Hope mount (might need a small washer at most). Though as you say the unit cost is bugger all...

If you can wait a week I have one I can post you. I'm out of the uk right now so can't do it any sooner.

The Hope Universal Mount from CRC has worked with lots of MS style light mounts for me.

No probs, just emailed you as I'll need an address.

Don't worry about postage, just help someone else out when they need it 🙂
