DESCRIPTION

A custom mount for attaching bottle cages to the fork legs of a surly midnight special. Mounts to the fork using the front rack bolt as well as two large zip ties.

The design is made for a 54cm midnight special with a 50mm fork offset. It might also fit on the larger frames with a 40mm offset but this has not been tested. The heat set inserts used are M5 with a length of 6mm and a 7mm diameter.

Wide tires might interfere with the mounts/bottles depending on the exact combination. With 40mm tires I have used tall 1L bottles in the mounts witthoutt issue.

DISCLAIMER

Use at your own risk. There is a danger of blocking the front wheel if anything breaks or comes loose. 3D-printing in a strong and tough material such as nylon is therefore recommended. Use threadlocker on the mounting bolt as well as a wider than stock M5 washer to spread out the bolt force on the mount.
