I'm in the process of building a USS "bent" and I'm looking for lights &/or brackets. Any sources, or is this also going to be a custom job?

The best I've see was the ones made by Bill Haluzak in Santa Rosa, CA for his USS SWB bikes. Do a search and call him. They were $30. and were positioned one behind the other where you could mount a light up front and your speedo closer to you.

There is the Vision mount, sold by Hostelshoppe:

It mounts in the derailleur tube up front.

Use a helmet light

I tape a flashlight to my recumbent when I ride at night. Duct tape is cheap and so are plastic flash lights. No need to spend money on a big name light when you can make one CHEAP that works.

Yup, when it comes to safety, that is what I want to be....cheap. I hope you save alot of money, you'll need it to pay the doctor or undertaker.

Hee, hee, hee

It only takes a few yards of duct tape to secure a flashlight to my handlebar or helemt. My flashlight has been taped to my recumbent all winter and it will never fall off.

I got 3 rolls of duct tape CHEAP at the Family Dollar store last week. Duct tape and recumbents are a match made in heaven.

You'll have to excuse Spuds. He's skipped his medication again....

Duct tape??? On your helmet and your handlebars? Way to go, you and Red Green will keep the duct tape biss booming.

Well, what I did on my Sun EZ-3 USX I use a handle bar and that thing that holds it in place, placed it in the front and could mount anything to it.

This is what I use to tape my lights to my bike and my helmet.

$5.00 a roll and it is as strong as one of those expensive items sold at the LBS.

Spuds,
Riding slow and walking my homemade recumbent up hills.
