Bike Handlebar Button (BoosterPack Throttle)

pinshape

This accessory is designed to work seamlessly with the Bicycle BoosterPack, a project you can see here: http://bit.ly/28XhHxg. Originally, I suggested purchasing a handlebar button assembly from Amazon, but their price has since skyrocketed to around $18. This model allows you to achieve the same functionality for just the cost of the switch and a screw - approximately $5. There are two sizes available, depending on where you want to mount it. Check out the image for standard bar sizes; most people will need the 0.875" diameter size, as I did myself. The 'Bike Handlebar Button' can easily be repurposed for other uses, such as a horn or light. Vitamins: (1) Normally Open Momentary Push Button Switch: http://amzn.to/299XqS8 (1) #6 pan head machine screw, 2" long, with nut. Available at Lowes, Home Depot, and similar retailers.
