Light Bracket

Hi all

missing not being in the hills, so i'm taking to the internet and trying not to spend money! There was a nice guy who joined us (Richard) on his GT 26er who had a great light bracket to help get the light beam over the front bag, I was wondering if anyone knew what model it is he rides with? I stored it in my memory, but I lost it with the push up the hill to the windfarm!

Thanks

If noone else knows hit the link below. If SJS don't have it, it probably only exists in a parallel universe

It's basically that, but I use two of these with a separately purchased rod to give it a bit more width (hard to clamp on the handlebars near the stem):

Not that model exactly, but similar. I go a little thicker than usual as I've snapped them in the past when hammering the downhills.

I'm going to see if I can get some 3d printed for my 29er as I want the light a bit further from the steer tube.

Edit - Good to be described as nice for once vs the usual descriptors... :lol:

Thanks guys. And thanks for spotting the thread! Just saves me having my light shining mostly at my wheel!
