If you don't HAVE to be period correct, Minoura makes a very nice handlebar mount, both double and single. I think maybe Harris Cycles still sells them. I have several, including a double on the 1972 Follis mod 172 I was riding today.

I have a couple of bikes which do not have bottle bosses and given the weather here in the summer months, lack of bottle bosses will severely restrict the use of these lovely old bikes. I need a source for handlebar mounts for water bottles, preferably period correct.

Can anyone help me out?
