MTB Bike Board Mounting Bracket

Recommended Posts

What do you guys use to fix your bike boards/permits to the handlebars? Other than cable ties or velcro straps, I was hoping to find something like this bracket except not as elaborate or bulky. Im just moeg of cable ties every other week when I ride somewhere different, and the velcro straps I have at the moment isn't secure enough so the board is rubbing against the head tube/brake hoses, (jaaaa i know cable ties is inexpensive, but a lekker bracket would just look so... lekker...)

 

This Racelabs jobbie also looks a bit bulky: https://shop.enduroworldseries.com/products/race-labs-reusable-pro-race-plate-100-recycled-plastic

Yep, I know what you mean. The board tends to scratch the headtube. I been looking, but right now I use velcro and attach it to my brake and shifter cable. It is well away from the frame and clear to read.

I have seen this option, but its too bulky. 

I have been contemplating a go pro mount.

I use thin velcro straps and put some spongy double sided tape on the front of the stem but just remove a small part of the covering on DS tape so board just sticks to it. this makes it mount between stem & cables so no rubbing and easy to remove.

I have the bracket in your picture. Not really noticeable and bulky once you start concentrating on your riding.

 

Happy with my purchase. They also had a special running recently...
