Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Performance ViewPoint Take5

I just bought a Performance ViewPoint Take5, a mid-grade 5-LED headlight. I quickly discovered that the included mounting bracket must have been made for little midget weenie bikes or something, because it's at least an inch too small to fit around my handlebars (Bontrager Race Lite). What the heck were they thinking when they designed this tiny little bracket? More importantly, how am I supposed to mount this light to my handlebars without looking totally ghetto? I'd like it to be easily removable, if possible, like the bracket. Any ideas?

Did you buy it online or at one of their stores? I would return it and possibly take a look at this Cat-Eye:

It fits my 31.8 OS specialized bars

Hope this helps!
