Customizable Bike Light Mount

thingiverse

This design was used to mount a rear bicycle light to the back of my bike. The OEM mount was designed for a seat stem, but I have a pretty hefty rear rack that would occlude the light, and make recharging a PITA. So I designed this. It is designed so that the light pressure fits/slides vertically into the slot. The mount has recesses for zip ties (of cusomizable width) which attach the mount to the back of the rack (or whatever vertical flat surface you are mounting it to). The included STL was the one that worked for my LE Rechargeable USB Rear Tail Light (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0197X16BC/), but this thing should be customizable to any of the slide-lock cycling couplers. Put any feature requests in the comments. Print Settings Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: Fast/Low is fine Infill: 15% was fine Notes: Print with the slide hole on top/up so that you can print without supports/overhang errors. While the top of the ziptie recess fits a ziptie of that size exactly, the bottom recess gets a little squished, so either add 1mm to the ziptie width as tolerance, or just do a little post processing with a file or knife. Possible Future Features -Allow the slide slot to be rotated -Allow printing on a curve, for printing around bars -Different mounting options: holes, zipties, bolt options for bar clamping -Documentation inside the .scad file Put any other requested features in the comments.
