Damn! Just had the stupidest thing just happen. I went outside with my bike to take a ride but before leaving I decided to take a quick video of my bike.. I was leaning my bike against the back of my car so I could get the bike to stand up straight. I was standing about 10-15 ft. from my bike with my phone / camera in my hand getting ready to take a video. Suddenly I see my bike falling. Too far away to catch it but no biggie. The thing is when the bike hits the pavement the BT speaker goes rolling off the bike. I thought ( at first glance ) that the speaker just popped off the quick release. Much to my dismay, such was not the case. Turns out a small piece of plastic under the QR bracket on the bars cracked and broke. Very strange because the Speaker and mount never even came close to touching the ground, just the inertia and impact of the bike hitting the pavement was apparently enough to crack the plastic on the mount and send the speaker rolling on the ground. Speaker itself is fine but I'll likely need another mount. . Close inspection of the mount showed that the part that broke is super, super thin ( less than a mm ). I might be able to fix it with some type of epoxy but even if possible you just have to hate the brittleness of cheap Chinese plastic.

If any one has any recommendations for a type of glue or epoxy that sets up and hardens very fast I'm all ears. I need something that starts out jell-like and can fill in the spaces where the plastic broke off and then harden very quickly. It's doable but I need something that will set-up rock hard and adhere to the mount. .If this works I won't need to replace the entire setup. The slide mount itself still works fine

( ** Edit; I might have earned my second MacGyver merit badge. I had a old torch holder designed to hold larger torches laying around and some plastic zip ties. I used the zip ties to hold the BT speaker onto the torch holder. It ain't pretty but at the moment looks likes it's holding. The torch holder isn't real great and I need some longer black zip ties to give it a cleaner look but this should tie me over till I either fix the other mount or find a better solution. You have to hate it when stuff like this happens right at the start of a week of vacation... )
