I like to use a handlebar bag, so I’d prefer to mount my front light to the fork crown. Trouble is, this bike has dual-pivot side-pull brakes. I’m looking at SON Edelux II or Supernova E3 Pro lights. Is there a neat way to do this, or does the bar bag have to go?

Click here but you may need to search around a bit for a UK supplier. Good luck.

Many thanks for this. I had read elsewhere that SON’s Brompton bracket could be made to work, although it’s not as elegant as their other brackets. Where did you find that image? I’d like to follow it up because to my eyes it doesn’t look as though it is actually using the Brompton bracket. Edit: Ok, don’t bother, I think I’m persuaded that it is!
