View Full Version : Where does one get nicely machined headlight brackets which slide down the fork leg?

Not the shitty chromed plastic ones which burst when you do them up tight, and not the standard "one each side of a 7" headlight" traditional bike headlamp brackets.

I want something that looks a bit like this, futuristic looking and made well enough to not break within 2 months.

A search on ebay yielded very little, maybe I was searching wrong.

Is there a good shop for this sort of thing? Are our friends behind the Great Wall churning them out for pennies?

My forks are 41mm diameter, if I cant find anything to buy in that size as a last resort I could investigate getting some made, but that would mean getting a more than just 2 made

If you're not ready to do it yourself, this man sure is, like Iceman said (click the banner):
