  1. What precisely is Cateye's Flex-tight (tm) bracket, as found on the
    EL530 front light?

    I need to get a new Cateye front light (the electrician who was holding
    the old one between her teeth dropped it after she shorted out a
    lighting circuit for the eighth time in a row).

    What I don't want is to find that my other Cateye front light (EL500)
    can't be swapped with it because of a different connector. That would be
    a nuisance.

    You can see it under the light here

    It will fit any size of handlebar by turning the knob

    You may be out of luck. My old HL500doesn't fit because the bracket
    has an internal slot for the small EL135.

    Have a look at this

    If you look carefully you can see where I have tried to fit my HL500
    on it -- the tiny mark on the left hand inner lip. The raised ramped
    part in the centre of the mount on the light fouls the bracket.
