Helmet mounting this torch – how?

looking at the enclosed mount – it appears that itmay swivel. I am thinking of something along the line of the joystick mount.

Any ideas of what to do?

I’m using a joystick mount now for mine, but previously used a blob of blutack and some red post office rubber bands recovered from the front path.

doe sit fit into a joystick mount with no issues?

🙂 works great for me

These help various versions are available from multiple sources, i used one on a Giro Xen with a foam block & a ziptie to adjust the angle & help with stability. Or just use zipties..

Similar to the elastic band, chop up an old innertube…

Ah- it’s not the same model of torch.

my question is specifically about modding the mount it coems with to make it like the joystick helmet mount

scrap the mount and get some reuseable cable ties. you’ll then have a world of options

not an option

have you got one of those Rob ? any good ? I’m looking for a new head torch

Cut the lower section off the handlebar mount to leave a low profile C section,(like it looks behind the red light in your pic) line it up with the light body, drop it thru a vent and twist the lower section 90 degrees so it snugs up against the sides of the vent, If you’ve got a threaded bolt in there, you can then clamp it down with the bolt and it should make a good interference fit similar to the exposure mount.
Obviously, test it’ll work before you cut off the excess.

Get yourself a second helmet and gaffa it on!!
