I have a set of thumb shifters (to replace a set of stem shifters) that I'd like to mount on the top of a drop handlebar. What will complicate this is the question of where then to place a front light.
(All of the front lights that I've had and know of were handlebar mounted)
The problem is that I won't have enough room for a light, shifter AND my hand on whichever side of the handlebar the light will be mounted. As far as I know, I'll only be able to choose two of the three.
Anybody here know better?
If you've got even a little space you could mount something like a Hope Vision One with the light under the bars. It comes with a strap so you can mount it to a helmet, so depending on the angle of your stem it might just work.
