I am unhappy about soldering joins in a bike loom as it makes a very solid and unforgiving joint from which wires can break. Bullet connectors and the like are OK for joining a couple of wires bu...

Hello, As I've mentioned before I've got an after market head light, there is a bolt hole at the bottom but no bracket to bolt it too, would be okay for mot reason to cable tie to bottom yolk as security and use locking bolts to secure the head light to the bracket on the forks.
