SEE PHOTOS 1 & 3. I easily fitted WingLights by Cycl to my new Dutch style handlebars by using a pair of bar ends. They cost less than £5 pair on Ebay.

WingLights are designed for use only with straight handlebars. This is how i easily fitted WingLights to my Dutch handlebars by using a pair of bar ends. My new bicycle indicators used in conjunction with hand signals aids visibility in dull and dark light conditions. WingLights by @cyclbike A new UK designed safety product. As seen on TV Dragons Den.

What about my WingLight mounts idea MS?

I had purposely not mentioned about the WingLight mounts because jealously had already set in. :)

Ok then MH, I also like the WingLight mounts. You had to squeeze that out of me.

What a workhorse, but how is your front rack mounted, doesn't it stop your suspension from working?
It's all fitted to the lower part of forks so it doesn't affect suspension. Firstly, i fitted one of these tiny racks. They fit onto the Big Bear perfectly. Then i bolted the large rack onto it. Fortunately, the down supports were exactly the right length.

Then i added an Adie basket which fits perfectly. Secured with a couple of bungee cords for quick release when i want to carry a parcel on the rack. Worked out great. No rattles at all. I hate rattles. And its all good and strong.

I've always wanted a front rack like yours, its only suitable for forks using capillary brakes. Please correct me if I am wrong.

It is like having more luggage compartment space. The more the merrier.
