I use a Light and Motion 800 lumen one... it rotates so I can use it on my road bike or my tri bike extensions.

I use a dinotte lighting headlight. Its mount pivots, so it works perfectly hanging on the underside of my left aero bar. I mount the external battery under the right aero bar.

Anything with a gopro compatible mount because you can get a K-Edge or Barfly combo mount for your garmin and light. The cycliq fly12, light and motion urban lights with mount, i bought a 3d printed adapter from shapeways for my cygolite, just to name a few. another idea is to mount the light on your quick release with one of these:

Looks good! But its appears to be lacking a daylight flash mode. You use it for day time? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xm_iuIdUhCE

 Yes I ride only in daylight now. This time of year I feel like using a front and back light is little extra insurance.

If the sun is low on the horizon, then bright lights are essential IMO. It isn't hard to get a rear light with a good daylight flash, but this is less common with front lights. The Light and Motion front lights have a pivoting mount which is awesome, but there is no good flash for day time.

it pulses.

And I also ride with a Light and Motion 360 on my helmet, so I'm covered with flashing.

I use dual Bontrager Ion 700s. Anything with a swivel soft mount should work well.

The hard part is finding ones that have a swivel mount...

True. But I worry a lot more about someone pulling out in front of me when I'm in aero...
