Brake arm light mount extension.

Super cool idea from John Potis, spreading via Flickr. .

What we’re looking at here is the Mafac ‘Racer’ centerpull arm used as a bracket to put the light where he wants it. I think an eBay Racer would cost more than a new Herse bracket, though.

And another direction, also very cool… “Campy Light Mount” for the win. You could get 4 or 5 out of one chainring. Depending how big it is, I guess…
