Ellipse Mount (Remix)
Description
The original design worked quite well but some areas were lacking and needed improvement, namely: <ol> <li><h2>Difficulty in accessing the touch panel</h2>The original design had the touch panel facing downwards into the mount, which made it difficult to enter the lock combination as you cannot see what you were pressing. <h3>Solution</h3>The model is now mirrored so that the other end of the lock is inserted into the mount instead.</li> <li><h2>Mounting holes too small</h2>The mounting holes on the mount were too small at the entrance which makes difficult to fit screws that have a slightly larger head.<h3>Solution</h3>The entrance to the mounting holes have been slightly enlarged to accommodate for M5 screws with a larger screw head.</li> <li><h2>Arch not flush against bicycle bar</h2>The arch of the mount that faces the bicycle wasn't suited for the curvature of my bicycle's bars (mine had less of an arch).<h3>Solution</h3>The curvature of the surface facing the bicycle bar has been decreased so the model can sit closer against the bike bar when mounted.</li> </ol> For reference, these changes were made to accomodate for a Reid Granite 1.0 bicycle. Suitability of this model will depend on the physical attributes of your bicycle.
