I use Exposure headlights on my road bikes, but am trying to find a headlight and compatible mount for a time trial bar. On my TT bike, I have a Vision base bar with the typical extensions. I think the base bars are unlikely to be supported by any headlight mounting product currently on the market.

I'm wondering if I can mount a reasonably bright headlight mounted somehow on the underside of the stem. Now that the mornings are darker later, it would be helpful if I could cast some light on my predawn outings. I use an Exposure Toro, so I'm looking for close to that level of output. Willing to buy light and mount, not just mount. Any help?

Look at the Rec-Mounts catalog online. You can use Google Translate. Also, Raceware Direct will 3D print for you if they don't already have one.

Thanks. I actually discovered that Exposure now makes a silicone band that wraps around an aerobar. I ordered one, as it should work with my Diablo.Look at the Rec-Mounts catalog online. You can use Google Translate. Also, Raceware Direct will 3D print for you if they don't already have one.

Maybe the Problem Solvers QR Nut Light Mount is an option?
I have one.
