    Price Paid:  $28.00 at CyclePath oregon

    Favorite Ride:
    Any

    Bike Setup:
    Kestrel Talon SL, Dura-Ace, FSA K_Wing carbon bars

    Summary:
    This thing is pretty.
    Having said that, thats all thats good about it.
    Its way too flexibly along its extension length which allows the computer or light to flop up and down by an inch or so. This is a sideways twist resulting from the weight shift on the mounting bar. makes the computer rather hard to read on a rough surface.
    Used this thing for about a month before tossing it and building my own based on a Cateye DC300dw bracket.

    Strengths:
    Its pretty

    Weaknesses:
    Not stiff enough. Twists side ways easily resulting in computer etc flopping around all over the place.

    Too expensive.
    Heavy for what it is.

    Similar Products Used:
    Cateye CD300dw bracket with custom mounting bar. Totally rigid, 25 grams lighter and only cost $5
