Wilderness System Rail Cycle Accessory Mount

thingiverse

A versatile slidetrax slide rail mounting accessory designed to seamlessly integrate standard cycle handle bar mounted equipment such as lights, GPS units, cameras, phone brackets, and electronic horns onto a kayak using SlideTrax Rail systems like the Wilderness Systems Tarpon. Most GoPro, light, and GPS devices come with pre-installed fitting brackets for cycle handlebars, so rather than create individual mounts, I opted to design a universal mount featuring a handlebar-sized tube. A crucial addition to this accessory is an M3 threaded hole that securely fastens the mount to the rail. I employed the same M3 knob used in my kayak project, which worked exceptionally well (it may require a few turns to loosen any initial stiffness): https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2137762. This versatile design also accommodates GPS units with a complementary mount available at: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:172478. This innovative solution should prove extremely useful!
