Extra PBSF rear blinkie mounting brackets?

Anyone know where I can get extra brackets for PBSF mounting? When my commuter bike was stolen, the bracket went with it.

From Planet Bike. Look at their website (they have a parts section). They are very good about providing spare parts to fix their products.

Also just bought one on Amazon.com, a few of the big online bike stores sell them that way.

The blinkie that I just tested from DealExtreme has a SuperFlash compatible bracket, and the whole blinkie is $3.54 shipped; it may be cheaper than just the bracket from Plant Bike. And the blinkie itself is very similar; not as bright directly on axis but brighter off axis, and the reflector works better than the SF.

Here's the review
and here's the product page.

Note: Deal Extreme orders typically take 3 weeks to arrive. Don't order from there if you need the stuff quickly. Patience is a virtue.

I have one meant for the seat post that I don't want/use, since I mounted mine on a rack with a separate mount. Do you want it? PM me with address, and I can send it to you.

I bought two after reading your review yesterday. Mine fell off the other day when I biked over some tracks. I'm looking forwards to them and plan on running one steady while the other on flashing.

Planet Bike also doesn't charge shipping for small items like that.

Have you checked your local shop? A couple of our local ones carry them.

My shop carries the extra brackets, but they cost almost as much as another light. It made more sense for me to just buy another light.
