Bringing it back to a little more low-tech approach, I also like to keep my handlebars pretty simple. https://www.flickr.com/photos/129545862@N03/29510899771/in/dateposted-public/ I've thought of using bike computers, gps, or a phone mount but that seems to represent the world I'm trying to leave behind when I'm on the bike. Besides, if the phone is in the bag (on silent), I can always access it if I'm lost. Good reason to take a break. The biggest challenge was figuring out where to mount the mirror where it didn't get in the way of hand position changes and gave me a decent view with a minimum of me in the view. I don't find myself using it much so I may get rid of it altogether. The lights are under the basket mounted on Paul Gino light mounts that are mounted on the VO canti rack. A little harder to reach but the bag doesn't block the light and the lower lights reveal path imperfections ahead of me by casting longer shadows of holes and bumps. The bell used to be on the bars but I found the stem mount made it easy to flip with my thumb. Pretty pleased with this evolution although it looks like I could use a re-hemping though.
