What adorns your handlebars?

[Jezston]

Cateye flasher, Hope Vision 1, Airzound, Bell. The bell and airzound are mounted underneath so not much space is taken up. My handlebars are fairly narrow makeshift bullhorns so with this setup I have just enough room to put my hands on the flat when I want to.

Next bike is based on an old ebay frame that came with track bars, and I was going to put bullhorns on but the chap doing it up for me in the lbs already spent some time polishing the handlebars so I'm going to have to see how i get on with them!

Two or three lights (main Lumicycle(s) and a backup Cateye LED) and a bell that says 'I Love My Bike' (given to me by a friend). I used to have a computer but can't see the point these days.

Garmin edge 500 on the stem, one bar end brake lever on right and occasionally a small cateye lifesaver. In the centre near the stem. No clutter.

 

[Headgardener]

A Electron Terra 1 light, barbag mount and a Cateye light (can't remember the model) with a Cateye Strada wired computer on the barbag mount. No room for anything else.

Fingal has a set of Profile Century aerobars, four lights and a computer, bless him. Four lights and a computer is pretty much standard for the bikes, unless it's a race bike.

well - a selection of about 3 lights - one being strapped to the underneather of the stem, a cycle computer, a gps, a reflector (ocasionly gets left behind) and sometimes a bell - all on 20cm of the left over space on my road bike handlebars!

My flat bars don't seem to have a lot of room. I have large hands so have longish grips, plus the bar ends, and I find the cable routing from the thumbshifter gear levers get in the way of lights. I have one light on the bars, then a Minoura extender that mounts my computer and another light mount. That's it, I like simplicity!

Must get round to moving my airzound but i am not sure how to mount as the lights take up the untaped bits of my bars and i have the bars double wrapped for comfort on the potholes we call roads.I might have to get my bar extender out at some point .

touring bike - handlebar bag, computer, GPS - Accessory Bar - bell & lights

On my fixed I put a computer and a front light then ran out of room and had to buy a bar x-tender for my second light. My geared bike just has a computer.

What's your opinion of your Minoura extension? I've only just been made aware of such a thing. Perhaps one of these would relieve some of the squeeze on my bars!



Glad to hear you're all well lit by the way! I see way too many cyclists riding about at night with a couple of miniscule flashers

 

[Skyfoil]

Two lights and a bell. Only ever used the bell once. Keep telling myself it might come in useful one day. Probably should just chuck it.
My computer is on the stem.

I removed my bell as I figured cars aren't going to notice it, and I seldom ride on cycle paths where peds may be. They're more likely to pay attention to a voice, really

Zilch, love the minimalism and being fixed no gears either.
