Can't find a $2.50 part I need
Hello,
Just got another bike and want to attach a Topeak Road Morph pump to the down tube next to a water bottle. The problem is that the mount that comes with the pump is solely for the top tube. In the past, I've purchased a simple plastic pump mount from Performance (same screws are used for the pump mount and the bottle holder) and my problem was solved. To my dismay, Performance stopped carrying the mount.
Is anyone aware of a site that I can purchase one of these things?
Thank you.

Topeak used to list that mount on their website as a separate item. It's gone now.

Attach rubber O-rings under the two screws of your water bottle. The O-rings should be just big enough to slip the pump through. Find them at a plumbing-supply, or auto-parts store. They are a couple of mm thick, and about the size of a quarter.
slide the pump in. It will be held firmly in place, in the V of the tube and the water bottle cage.
This is a weight-weenie thing, for the lowest possible weight pump-holder... But it works great, even for non-weenies.

I just took a pic. My O-rings came from a light-mount, so they have the little tabs on them, but a regular O-ring would do the job just as well.

It's still on Todson's web page. (Todson is the U.S. distributor for Topeak.)
