8. TO STABILIZE THE LIGHT AND MINIMIZE MOVING OR SLIPPING
While riding on rough terrain and in other challenging trail situations, of course you want your light to be stable with
minimal moving or slipping. We've only had a few customers that have raised a concern with this, but I want to
make sure that all of our customers get the most out of their light, without compromising functionality. Certain
handlebars might be a little too thin for the O-Ring setup, allowing the light to slip a little when riding on rough
terrain.
Here are 3 things that you can do to keep this from happening:
1. Roughen the rubber mounting O-ring with sandpaper. This will give the O-ring more grip, keeping the headlight in
place.
2. Wrap electrical tape or friction tape around the handlebar where the light will be mounted, making it thick enough
to tighten up the O-ring. On the last wrap, twist the electrical tape around, exposing the sticky side of the tape. This
will also help keep the headlight in place.
3. A customer of mine who rides his mountain bike down rough trails recently wrote me an email, explaining that he
went to the local hardware store and bought a can of Plastic-dip and sprayed it on the handlebar area where the
light is to be mounted. Since doing this, his light has never slipped. So if you don’t mind doing that to your
handlebars, this might be a good solution for you.
