thanks for the advice everyone! The terracycle mount is absolutely
perfect for what I need - several photos on the site of lights being
mounted on the forward boom, as I need to do. I probably will get one
of those beauties. BTW the cruzbike is going great! I love it --
never thought I'd be able to afford a recumbent, until I found the
$500 conversion kit. The pedal-steer effect was a bit annoying at
first, but I've adapted so that now I don't even notice it.
I also am looking at that cateye el410 ... though a LBS guy thinks one
of the Shimano Pro LED lights they are bringing in this week has a
swivel mount too. It is only $30, so we will see.
cheers,
Charlie
ps. thanks for the slick tyre advice. I ended up going for the
Continental Sport Contact 26x1.3, which nicely enough my LBS can get
in for as cheap as any of the online stores.
