Product Information
Full details
The Topeak UTF Light Bar is for cyclists who need to mount their front light securely beneath their handlebars and other devices. Its key benefit is efficient use of space, allowing you to keep your handlebars clear while ensuring your light is positioned effectively. A potential caveat is its reliance on the Topeak UTF Multi-Mount system for attachment. This compact accessory, made from engineering-grade polymer, integrates seamlessly with specific Topeak Multi-Mounts to hold various handlebar front lights, enabling you to illuminate your path without cluttering your cockpit.

Do I need a specific Topeak mount to use this Light Bar?

What types of lights can I attach to the Light Bar?
You can attach Topeak HeadLux lights (e.g., 450 USB, 250 USB, 150AA, 100 USB) and other handlebar front lights that use straps for mounting.
How heavy is the Topeak UTF Light Bar?
The Topeak UTF Light Bar is very lightweight, weighing only 20 grams.
What material is the Light Bar made from?
It is constructed from engineering-grade polymer, which is known for its durability and light weight.
Can I mount my light above my computer with this product?
No, the UTF Light Bar is designed to mount the light *underneath* your primary devices like a smartphone or cycle computer.
Does this product come with a light or a Multi-Mount?
No, the Topeak UTF Light Bar is an accessory only. It requires a compatible Topeak UTF Multi-Mount and a separate front light to function.
Troubleshooting
Light Bar won't attach securely to the Multi-Mount
Verify you are using a compatible Topeak UTF Multi-Mount version. Ensure the attachment points are clean and free of debris. Follow the specific attachment instructions for your Multi-Mount model.
Front light feels unstable on the Light Bar
Ensure the light is properly strapped to the Light Bar. Check that the Light Bar itself is securely fastened to the Multi-Mount. Use lights with appropriate strap lengths for a snug fit.
Reduced visibility due to device obstruction
Adjust the position of your cycle computer or smartphone on the Multi-Mount to ensure it does not block the light's beam. The goal is to have them side-by-side or slightly staggered, not directly overlapping.
