FAQs

What size are the threaded eyelets required for this mount?

The mount is designed for M5 threaded eyelets.

Can I mount any bike light with this mount?

The mount provides a versatile platform, but the compatibility depends on how your specific bike light attaches to a mount. Most standard lights should work.

Where are the best places to mount the light?

Optimal placement depends on your riding conditions. Common locations include mid-fork for trail illumination, dropouts for clearance, and rear rack eyelets for visibility from behind.

Does this mount come with lights?

No, this is a light mount accessory and does not include bike lights.

How do I use the crank bolt tool function?

The mount has a feature designed to thread and unthread crank bolts specifically on Shimano cranks. Use it as you would a standard tool for this purpose.

Is this mount suitable for heavy-duty lights?

The mount is designed for standard bike lights. For very heavy or large lights, ensure the mount and the chosen mounting point on your frame can support the weight and any vibration.

Troubleshooting

Mount feels loose after installation

Ensure the M5 eyelet is clean and free of debris. Thread the mount in fully until snug. Do not overtighten, as this could damage the threads.

Light is not secure on the mount

Verify that your bike light's mounting system is compatible with the Restrap mount's design. Ensure the light is properly secured according to its own instructions.

Crank bolt tool not fitting Shimano crank

Confirm you have a Shimano crank and that the bolt is designed for this type of tool. Some crank bolts may have specific tool requirements.
