JBL Charge 5 handlebar mount (22mm)

I created this mount because I’m heading to a festival and wanted to bring some music along for the ride — literally!
I recently got myself a folding bike and thought it’d be fun to mount my JBL Charge 5 speaker right on the handlebars.

This custom holder is designed for:

• 📏 22 mm handlebars (standard on many folding bikes)
• 🔉 JBL Charge 5 speaker (may fit similar JBL models, but not guaranteed)

🧱 Print Settings & Material Recommendations

• Material: PLA (tested), but PETG is highly recommended
  → Better UV resistance and mechanical strength for outdoor use
• Print Quantity: 2 identical parts required
• Supports: Yes (recommended)
• Layer Height: 0.2 mm
• Infill: 20–40% (depending on strength needs)

🔩 Assembly Instructions

You’ll need some basic hardware to assemble the two parts and attach them to your handlebars:

Required:

• 6 × M6 x 40 mm bolts
• 6 × M6 washers
• 6 × M6 (nylock) nuts

Align the two printed parts around your handlebar and speaker, then secure them with the bolts, washers, and nuts. That’s it — your mobile sound system is ready to roll!

🎉 Notes

• Designed specifically for the JBL Charge 5, but might fit other speakers of similar size.
• Intended for casual biking, not for off-road or high-vibration environments.
• Feel free to remix or adapt the design for other handlebar sizes or speaker models.

Have fun and enjoy the ride — with music! 🚴🎶
