"Did you really take time off work for this?"
I can hear people saying that (but that's not the case)
I installed a turn signal on the saddle rail.
There's a capsule toy like this,
and I set it up so it can be
mounted on the saddle rail.
It's positioned so it doesn't interfere with pedaling or getting on and off the bike.
I disassembled the turn signal toy.
I was already working on this by the time of the image above
↑At this position, without interfering with the function or structure,
I could drill a hole for an M3 bolt,
and there was space for an M3 nut as well, so
I was able to install Reckmaunt®
a part like this.
This is a separate project—it's a capsule toy
that plays a voice saying "I'll heat it up for you♪"
when you press the water heater reheating button
On the back, I installed a part using
Reckmaunt®'s
super-strong double-sided tape
to attach an adapter for a Garmin mount
↑The image on the right is from iGPSport—
a part that mounts a GoPro standard mount onto the saddle rail,
and it came with a Garmin mount,
originally designed for mounting
their rear light.
I was thinking about going with this mounting method,
but the turn signal has
speaker holes on the back,
so I abandoned that idea.
Even if I covered these holes, the large slit on the side
should let the sound come through fine.
Also, the battery on this is replaceable.
GoPro standard mounts have mainly on the mount side
3 pegs with threaded holes and 2 slots at the end,
and mainly on the parts side
2 pegs and 1 slot
(for example, the rear light mount from earlier is the latter),
but in this case both are the former,
so I cut off the pegged part with the threaded hole
on the plastic iGPSport saddle rail mount,
and filled the parts where the slot width didn't match
with washers.
For this part this time,
I purchased directly from Andex You (company name),
which owns the Reckmaunt® (brand name),
and since the company's president included a personal message for me
about owning the nomulab wheel,
I'm introducing this part in a way that smells like fake advertising.
(I wasn't asked to do fake advertising, just to be clear)
Yeah~ Mr. President, are you watching~?
When you flip the lever up or down,
the arrow flashes with a click-click-click... turn signal sound.
The lever stays in place when flipped,
but the hazard switch flashes both arrows simultaneously
without maintaining the pressed state—
it only works when you press it.
This turn signal has zero waterproofing,
so it doesn't look like it can be used regularly.
