There's been a lot of talk about lights lately but does anyone know where you can get a reasonably universal light mount for the torch bodied style? I have got several bikes and don't want to spend a fortune on loads of mounts so easy mount/dismount would be good.
I have two of these and they are great

Or this for less money

There's loads on DX, eg http://s.dealextreme.com/search/bicycle+flashlights
I use this one, seems to work well:

I have the lockblock and it's about as universal mount as you can get but I never found it terribly stable on the bars, but is about the best thing for the helmet.. then supported with maybe a ziptie for added stability.
Just got one of the gun mounts Nickjb has linked to, as a bar only mount, and it looks pretty good for the money.. though have actually yet to try it out. Available from UK sellers, for quick delivery, but this [url= http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/320726783760 ]guy[/url] was cheap as chips and delivered in 11 days.. pretty damned impressive for the cash
(I'm sure you could afford one for each of your bikes!)
