a. Rear light mounted to fender -- how many of you have mounted one to a (gasp!) plastic fender and how long did it last there before getting beaten up beyond repair? Nope -- I have a battery Spanninga on Berthoud stainless fenders, and a battery Spanninga on SKS chromoplastic. All of my generator tail lights are mounted on rear racks. b. Wiring: for those kids not cool enough to have it routed internally, do you like it mounted on top or underside of tubing? I mounted on top, next to the rear brake cable -- it disappears there. c. Front light mounting: How many of you don't normally use a small front rack but specifically installed one to protect the headlight? And how many of you just went with a fork crown mount sans rack? Every dyno headlight I have is on a front rack. Fork mount looks too vulnerable to me to a spinning front wheel -- a problem the Tout Terrain frames cleverly deal with using a stop on the steerer tube. I don't have a Tout Terrain, but thinking about why the stop was put there has led me to a default mounting on a front rack for all my headlights. Here's a pic from Peter White of the stop: [http://peterwhitecycles.com/images/products/frames/tout-handlebar-stop.jpg] -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
