Help: Blackburn Flea front light
Hi
I am looking for some help, I got a blackburn flea front light but have lost the velcro strap that came with it.
I emailed Blackburn to see if they can send me a new one and they said no.
I have tried finding a velcro strap which is small enough to fit through and has plastic loop at the end as well but no luck.
Anyone got any ideas on what I can do?
thanks

Radar tells me their closing speed, if they are slowing and how far away. Then I decide to say a prayer. The change of light pattern is incidental.

Quite so, which is why our village 20mph zone covers the whole residential extent. Of course, enforcement is another thing..

No, that's very doubtful while proper testing would be fully destructive.

Or get any bit of velcro and cut it the same width as to where it straps through the light....then stitch on the "buckle". Sorted.
Replacement straps are available to purchase through Madison dealers:

Your local independent bike shop should be able to sort you out.
Look on the Madison website - all of the constituent bits of the Fleas are available.
I'll have a root around - I may have a spare you can have.
Not ideal but; Zipties? Semi permanent and will work as a "quick fix."
One of these things? http://images-en.busytrade.com/185287300/Velcro-Brand-Fasteners-velcro.jpg
Have to check for size but those straps come with minipump holders?
