Can I twist the light 90 degrees in its mount? so that I can mount it on the forward facing aero bars of my TT bike?

No, straight ahead only. Bars must have no sweep. You *can* fudge it a bit left or right by a half degree or so because it's mounted with a piece of rubber. This mount design is the same as on all the other lamps in this category. Super low cost --&gt; no fancy mount.

I think it would really depend on the size of your stem. The light is made so it could go around any tubular part but the stem would have to be wide enough so the rubber strap can pull it to make a tight fit. If it's not a tight fit, the light might spin around.

Yes it is but it has a major problem. I won't stay in place. If you have mountain bike and you go through a lot of bumps then the light will go downwards that's why I'm looking for a new light right now. It's really cool but I would suggest you get another one.

The mounting bracket for both the headlight and tail light are circular in shape, so they wouldn't adapt exactly to an oval bar. But it's a compression fit, so as long as the large diameter of the oval bar fits in the bracket it should be OK. Having said that, on my bike, which has round bars, the bars are quite a bit smaller than the mounting bracket, so I need to pad the gap with some rubber (a piece of inner tube works fine). You could use the same approach.

yes it will turn to 90 degrees. I bought this for my motorcycle the reception is not the greatest misses a lot of the channels just thought I let you know

You could but you might would have to put some kind of wedge underneath te light to get the correct angle you wanted.

The way the lights mount, you can adjust the angle up and down i.e. you can point the light down at the ground right in front of your tire or angle it up to light the path in front of you. They do not pivot side to side. They do come with different thickness' of padding inside the mount ring which is great as my husband and I have different style MOTOBOCANE bikes and his handlebars are much thicker then mine. We just used the thin padding to mount the light to his bike and the thicker padding to mount the light to my bike. That being said, if you want to be able to pivot the light side to side, you may be able to mount the light to the neck of your handlebars instead of the actual cross bar. I hope this helps. Just as a side note: the back lights are really bright and I was very pleased with the how easy they both were to mount.

Our LED strips are very flexible. They can make a 90 degree turn going up or down, however the strips can not make a 90 degree turn left or right. For that we recommend cutting your strips and using our Any Angle Connectors to make your turn.

No it can't. when you flip it in the opposite direction, the lights face upward.

No, this mount will not give you a 90 degree swivel. You will need a mount with a longer arm then this one has.

Of course it can! You just have to use your imagination in figuring out how to create your own attachment. If you're handy with some tools, you could create a "rail" block from a small piece of hard wood [oak, maple, etc], and secure it thru the top of your helmet. In that configuration, the light would be mounted upside down

Use a shim to tilt the light enough that the light is directed to your needs. A little "out of the box" mounting could be fitted to not only serve your needs but could be made to look like it should be mounted that way.

I doubt it will work, that mount is meant to be placed on bicycle handlebars and once it is tightened with zip ties does not allow it to rotate.

Just checked and the swivel lock-to-lock is about 300 degrees, more than you will ever need as anything over 180 degrees is a duplication. I really like the light, this is my second, but gave it a one star review (by Glycon, Mt Pleasant) due to failure of the first. If this one gives good service life I would raise my review to four or five star. I noted some changes were made in the electronic in the second light and hope they fixed the burnout issue. In spite of my one star review I have no problems recommending you give this light a try because Amazon will honor warranty 100% including shipping if you have a problem.

You can rotate the bracket slightly but it won't turn a 90 degree angle. It turns about 45 degrees.
1354015
no, but you can change the angle of the light source and that will change the direction

I would say no, but I mounted it on the top of the frame, with 2 little pieces of wood mounted on the frame itself. The reason is that the U neck of the light cannot rotate more than a quarter turn on both sides. I didn't forced it further, it would have broke. I also add that the light is very cold white, and I would have loved warmer white...
