Headlight that mounts on Elliptical Handlebar ?

Hello-

I am looking for a headlight with a mounting system that will work
with an "ergo" style handlebar. This handle bar has an elliptical
shape, not the typical round style.

All of the headlights I have looked at so far are designed for round
bars.

Any suggestions ?

Thanks,
Greg

Dinotte? (well, you didn't mention budget )

I've got this little guy and it works great on my Ritchey Streem Carbon
bars.

The DiNotte ultra has a very simple mounting that will work on any bars,
and it gives off a lot of light, much more than you would think for an
LED. The only downside is cost; it's pretty expensive. But it does give
ample light to see by, not just to be seen.

I don't know about that. Is that CF bar? The Dinotte uses the bar as a
heat sink. I don't own one, but what I've read is it gets hot, and needs
the bar to get rid of the heat.

All false. For one, the diNotte, which I have been using all winter for
my commute, does not get hot. It gets vaguely warm; no big deal. Second,
it does not use the bar as a heat sink. There is a cushion pad between
the body of the light and the bar; if they wanted the bar as a heat sink
they would not insulate the connection. The body of the light is solid
aluminum, with fins that serve to transfer heat, but to the air, which
under usual conditions is blowing by the light.

By the way, this light is really great. At 5W, you'd think it would not
give adequate light, but the led puts out more light than a 10W halogen
light. It also is very compact, very lightweight, and completely reliable.
