We have designed the mounting strap directly into the silicone housing. The silicone strap wraps around a seat rail and then clips to itself. We've designed this mounting system to be secure enough to stay on as you ride through the city, while at the same time being easy to put on and take off.
Bike Balls also feature a system so that they can be semi-permanently attached to your bike to prevent thieves from stealing your 'Balls (don’t you hate it when that happens). Simply feed one of the supplied zip-ties through the opening in the mounting strap, securing it in its closed position. You can leave your Bike Balls mounted securely in this fashion as your run errands in the city. If you are doing a lot of riding in bumpy conditions (ie. mountain biking, BMX, etc) we recommend that you use the supplied zip-tie with your Bike Balls.
The zip-tie can remain on even when it is time to replace the batteries.
