Bike mount

Mounting base I made for bicycles, to attach mini containers (for tools and such) to the frame. There's one version for standard bottle cage screw mount, and one for zip ties. Caution: Don't use the zip tie version on carbon frames as it may damage the frame!

BikeMount-detachable-part is what you add to any object you want to attach to the base. For an example, see my mini tool bottle: https://www.printables.com/model/874564-mini-tool-bottle-for-bike-mount

The washers may help mounting the screw base to a frame that is slightly angled (my full suspension MTB needed these).

The safety pin may be needed if you bike on trails, jumps or if you're just paranoid and don't want to rely only on the snap-into-place to keep things from falling off.

Print instructions

• Print in PETG or any other material suitable for outdoor usage. • 0.2 layer height. 0.4 nozzle. • Using wall printing order “Outer/inner” may help if you end up with a too tight fit with attachments. If still too tight, adjusting X-Y contour compensation should work.

Supports

• The base for screws require no supports.. • The base for zip ties require some supports underneath. You can print it as pictured here. I also printed it standing up in 45° angle, and that worked very well too.

• The detachable-part can be printed either lying down or standing without any supports. It all depends on what you slap it onto what's most suitable.

Update

Added step files for detachable part (with and without chamfer)
