This is how you can attach flags to your bicycle

You should not have any problem mounting a flag to your handlebar if you get yourself an umbrella holder for bicycle.

You can check out how it can be mounted on a bicycle or wheelchair by watching this video.

There are also many types of handlebar capacity organisers that you can make use of to attach your flag if you run out of space there.

You will have to figure out how you can attached your flag to the organiser based on the kind of pole it is attahced to.

There are also bicycle light holder that you can use for mouting your flag. This model has a quick release mechanisam which makes it easy for you to consider installing on other locations like the seatpost or top tube. Just make sure that the holder you buy can be rotated in the correct position for the flag to be raised up.

These are other holders for bicycle light that you can consider.

You can wrap the pole with paper or cut strips of punctured tubes if the gap is too large for the pole of your flag.

Just make sure that you attached the flag securely to your bicycle so that it will not fall out of the holder and accidentally hurt someone close by.

Are dynamos still used in a bike to power the bike lamp, or is there a better alternative?

Bicycles shops that still supply the old school double beam 28″ wheelsize steel bicycle like this are likely to stock some dynamos.

This is the kind of dynamos usually installed on such bicycles.




There are other version of dynamo light set that are more modern looking. This overstock Coleman folding bike made for the Japanese market has a different model installed.

As spare parts are difficult to find for dynamos, the better alternative will be a regular flashlight that comes with a battery charger because you can also use it in your car or at home. The curved edges of this flashlight are sharp enough to break glass windows in an emergency.



There are many kind of flashlight holders for bicycles but I like the one that can be rotated 360 degrees. This means that you do not have to change the direction of your bicycle to shine on areas you want to look at. Once the flashlight is mounted on the holder, you can easily rotate it.

It is easy to remove the flashlight from the mount to keep it so you do not have to worry that it will be stolen off your bicycle where you parked it.
