The streets I ride on are in very poor shape - tons of potholes, drunk bumps, rumble patches, ruts, uneven shoulders, no shoulders, road construction including steel plates, the list goes on...so having a light that holds in place solidly is important for me.
This light is very small and light so it has little inertia when you hit bumps and it seems to stay in place pretty well for me. I use this mount.
http://dx.com/p/universal-bike-bicyc...ll-phone-68460 Don't be deceived by how cheap and simple it looks. It is very snug for mounting and will wiggle when you hit a bump but comes right back to where you had it set. I lay the strap on top of the bars and place the flashlight in position across the two thick bars on the strap. Them I loop the band under the bars first then around to slip over each end of the flashlight. This is really tight and forgiving. I now own a bunch of these straps and two lights. Use the 16500 rechargeable batteries though to get the max brightness which will be nearly double AA brightness. The cells are cheap on DX.com. This light is exceptionally powerful for it's size and I normally ride with it on Medium.
