I've thought about getting a stem mounted gopro mount but would also need to purchase a gopro to niterider lumia adapter and of course the adapter would not work with other lights. Another possibility is one of those handlebar extenders but I think they would interfere with my phone as well.
What I'd really like is something similar to the stem mounted Redshift Shockstop Utility mount since it is just a simple bar that I can use to attach any brand of light. The problem is that is a pretty expensive light mounting solution since it only fits their shockstop stem (not that I haven't been tempted to try it since the roads around here such).
Another problem with this is I would need to find another phone mount since the niteize looks like it's only good for round stems.
