Head tube light?
 
Does anyone know of a light one can attach to a thick head tube? (As an extra, flashing light. Maybe something you can easily strap around it.)

I have my MagicShine clone light attached to my head tube. Mine is just a regular steel head tube and the provided rubber strap works fine - you might need a longer one depending on how thick your head tube is.

My thickest bike head tube is 1.65" and my lights with stretchy straps will fit -- barely. The less stretchy straps on the NiteRider and Serfas won't fit.

If it's just for an extra light, a blinky to-be-seen light, those don't weigh much. You could improvise with aftermarket rubber straps or Velcro straps.

Can't remember if I strapped this generic Magicshine(Singfire SF90) on the headtube or top tube.
I think it was the top tube. But this bike has fat tubing. So if the strap fits the Brompton's top tube;
should go in most bike's head tube:
