Has anyone else noticed that middle aged straight men will literally pay anything for a bit of M5 threaded spaff that will hold their dynamo light at the "optimal" position?
I refuuuuuuse. Made one mount out of hardwood but it has broken twice now since the 3d shape puts the grain across a short dimension somewhere. This weekend's tinkering will be to bodge a replacement out of some folded sheet metal. I've almost certainly spent more than 25 quid so far but you know something something sunk cost

I invested in the same bracket. 10 seconds later I looked on the Schmidt website to check if it matters which way the light is mounted. Yes it does. This, and the realisation that this is a stupid place to put a light anyway, led to a search for a bracket to mount that bracket somewhere else, horizontally.

Hope RX4 has strong fundamentals and a good outlook. (Hope sell the o-rings so I won't have to bin the caliper if it starts leaking, looking at you BRS-785)
There was a buy opportunity earlier today which I capitalised on. The aesthetic of this build is now "eBay", much like my wardrobe
I used the money I saved to buy that stupid £20 + £5 shipping plastic dynamo mount from the Fairlight website:

You literally cannot charge us enough. I don't know why people bother getting into frame building. Buy a 3D printer and a Udemy Sketchup course, start charging suckers 40 bucks per mount. I promise they will pay. When you show one of us a p-clip we start talking like one of the androids from the Westworld reboot and say "Doesn't look like anything to me"
