White Lines Mount Bolt Epoxy Job - Stop the Rattle!

 On today's Road Ride, the Ridley Fenix aka "White Lines" was rattling at the shared mount 

holding both the Coospoo GPS

and the MagicShine Headlight 

Rather than it being just a loose bolt, it was the socket itself embedded in the one-piece carbon handlebar that was loose!

So the plan was to apply 2 part 5-minute epoxy into the edges and even over the metal of the socket in hopes to keep it still - and doing this without messing up the threads of the socket. Ideally I could have taken it out, but for now lets start here.

Epoxy from OSH

and applied (the cool mixing nozzle did NOT work - I was unable to snap it in place/the syringe was spewing the parts out) so toothpicks became the mixing tool and applicator.

Once dry, I bolted the mount back on with some fresh Loctite knockoff, put back the Coospo and the MagicShine - no rattle, we will see how it rides.
