Before you start
Every XEcycle mount is printed for a specific helmet or seatpost model. Check the part matches your exact model before fitting — if something seems wrong, email support@xecycle.shop with a photo before forcing anything. TPU is flexible by design; force is never required.
Helmet camera mounts
- Check the fit dry. Hold the mount against the helmet and match its shape to the vents it's designed around. It should be obvious where it sits.
- Thread the zip ties (included) through the mount and the helmet vents. Don't fully tighten yet.
- Seat the mount, then tighten the ties evenly until it doesn't shift under firm finger pressure. Clip the tails.
- Flexible tail trick: if the mount's tail is hard to get through a vent, bend it slightly — it's designed to flex. Do not pull hard against the helmet shell.
- Clip in your camera using its own magnetic clip, and tug-test before riding.
Never drill, cut, glue or heat a helmet. If a mount seems to need that, it's the wrong mount — contact us instead.
Seatpost light mounts
- Slide the mount onto the seatpost from below, before refitting any saddlebag.
- Position it clear of the saddlebag and high enough that the light has a clean line behind you.
- Tighten the screws evenly (all screws included). Snug, not crushing — TPU grips well without heavy torque, and excessive clamping force on a carbon post is its own problem.
- Mount the light on the quarter-turn or GoPro interface, and confirm the lens sits level with the ground — that's the whole point of the model-specific angle.
Every ride
- Check the mount is secure and uncracked before you set off.
- Replace any part showing cracks, whitening, deformation or play.
- Replace after any crash, even if it looks intact.
