Re: [RBW] Re: Blue Lug / Nitto strut light mount hack

[Brian Turner]

Thanks John! The light itself is perfectly fine. Not crazy bright or fancy, but serves its purpose. These are lights that Blue Lug introduced a few years back, and they fit the whole Blue Lug / Rivendell / Crust aesthetic perfectly. The battery life isn’t as good as some other USB rechargeable lights I own, but I wouldn’t hesitate to put these on other bikes. Cheap. Easy. Looks great. Can’t ask for much more than that!

I'm not familiar with that one.

Then I found this neat little hack on Blue Lug's site and decided to try it. Allows you to mount a light anywhere along the length of a Nitto rack strut, and it's pretty unobtrusive-looking. I know the Nitto (left and right side) light mount does the same thing, but it was too big and unwieldy (and pricey) for this purpose. Plus, I like how this mount allows me to tuck the light cleanly up under the rack platform, so it's not sticking out very far. All you need is the Minoura Gamoh rack adapter (sold as a 2-pack), found here through The Inconvenience Store: https://the-inconvenience-store.com/collections/blue-lug/products/gamoh-rack-adapter ...and an extra Nitto daruma bolt (strut bolt). Optional: lop off and file the unused tab and voila! A clean, simple, light mount for your Koma light! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
