Ay Up Introduces the Gecko Lightset Mount

We wrote a review awhile back about Ay Up’s mountain bike and road bike light system. Ay Up’s lights weigh under 60 grams and the battery a tad over 80 grams which enables users the ability to use the new Gecko Lightest Mount velcro mountain system. This type of helmet mounting offers an alternative method of mounting your helmet lights and batteries.
The below is a press release from Ay UP
Above image shows the Gecko Lightset Mount …
Using very flexible plastic mountings that can be contorted and twisted into any shape along with Industrial Strength 3M velcro dots you can now mount your helmet and light mount in seconds.

Both mounts can be removed completely extremely quickly leaving behind 8 velcro dots on your helmet. Battery swap over is super fast for those ever shorter pit stops during epic races.

With both Gecko’s attached less the Lightset which snaps into place …
Complete Gecko System, installed in seconds
The added benefit of the mounts being super flexible is you can mount these anywhere on any type of surface.
Below head on image shows the slim but strong profile of the Gecko Lightset Mount…
Round poles, walls, glass, skate lids, caving, hard hats and helmets with no vents whatsoever, no problem.
The mount weight is under 5 grams but these little guys are as tough and as strong as our current mounts. The plastic composite we use super flexible and UV protective. They will attach to any profile and shape, no worries …
