I recently switched from a Flat-bar hybrid to a Low-mid level road bike (with Sora Components), and encountered an annoying phenomenon.

On Sora Brifters, the shifting cables come out the side of the shifter, cross in front of of the handle-bars, and then down toward the head tube...

My head-light, when mounted on the handle-bar next to the stem, is partially blocked by a cable. I don't worry about this affecting other seeing me, but it does seem to make it harder for me to see the "circle" (which is no longer a circle) of light on the road in front of me when riding at night.

Other than upgrading to 105 shifters, what solutions have you found for this problem on lower-level road bikes?

Any particular headlight that has a very tall mount?
Or perhaps one that mounts on the stem? I think mounting it on the stem would solve it, since the cables bend down out of the way toward the middle.
