Light mount for recumbent trike boom with no derailleur post (HP Velotechnik)
On trikes with no derailleur post we are often challenged when mounting a front headlight.
A simple bracket mounted on the boom has limited light visibility (light to the right is blocked by the chainrings) and suffers from "foot flash" -- as your foot passes in front of the light, the light reflects back at you with a temporary flash. This limits your night vision and is downright irritating.
We have resolved these problems with a two-part light mount that extends forward far enough to avoid foot-flash issues.
The light-mount is made with sturdy aluminum and is well-triangulated for strength.
The pictures show this light-mount on an HP Velotechnik Scorpion with no derailleur post.
