    Anyone know of a rear light with different mounts (ie a couple of mounts that can be bought separately) that can be put on different bikes? Nothing too pricey.

    Cateye rapid micro uses a little elastic that loops around a seatpost and into a mount so can be easily removed, either taking just the light or the light and mount.

    They’re generally around the €20 mark.

    You can also buy the Cateye mounts for almost any of their lights from SJS cycles I think. I have to order two myself soon

    I've sort of got vendor lock-in now, as I always buy Smart rear lights and Cateye front lights, just because my three bikes have those brackets. It's worked out pretty well though. I definitely prefer having a dedicated bracket on each bike than reinstalling lights with elastic all the time.
