hi Andr¨¦,

is it something like this?  http://geektechnique.org/projectlab/511

my friend likes riding bicycle but he laugh at me when I offered he the possibility to mount and charge FR.
I would like to show him the photo of mount-kit, and even the charger after you finish it.

Best Regards,
Mac Lin
