Saddle rail Mount for rear light

[no calves]

Hi Guys

 

Is there currently anybody offering a saddle rail mount for a rear light like the Lupine light.

 

I know there is a few choices abroad but is there any in RSA? perhaps a market for someone with CAD skills and a 3d printer....

 

Regards

If you have a Fizik Saddle you can use a compatible rear light that slips in. 

 

Works like a charm!

What I did:

 

Buy a 25mm pvc pipe (you can get them anywhere), and cut a few cm of pipe out and jam it between the rails horizontally.

 

Now you can mount any bicycle light to that PVC pipe, because 25mm is basically a narrow seatpost.

 

I'll try and take photos tomorrow.  The bike is in the shop today.

 

 

 

I did that because of a dropper post.

I just wrapped a zip tie around the rails and hooked the light on that- worked fine for the whole of trans baviaans

I have that saddle & light too, but also zip tied a light to my helmet.

 

It's a USB rechargable Ryder Baron.

if you mount a light on your saddle, where do you put you saddle bag?

I would not mount a light to my helmet. It was pricy enough to keep it light and in the event of an accident I'm sure a foreign object would cause complications.

Where you usually have your bag in relation to your light(sabre)... it hang below it

Also have one of these, it works brilliantly. Easy to swop from bike to bike.

Reviving an old thread:  Any progress in products or technology ?

 

I am looking for a reasonably priced light that I can mount on my saddle rails.

 

Giant's Recon TL 100 or 200 aren't in stock.

I don't use a Fizik any more, so my Cateye Rapid 3 (shown above) is for sale.

 

Any other suggestions ?
