flexible hook

have designed a very sturdy PLA holder for my phone for the handlebars of my mountain bike. Lots of jumps are involved, hence things have to be really solid. See the design at grabcad.

The problem concerns the holder for my bike glasses. I was thinking of creating a flexible hook that would hold the glasses in place by compression. The current design however is too rigid and won't secure the glass sufficiently. I was wondering whether you might have any advice on improving the design.

Hi! This is an interesting question. If I were you, I would design the holder for the bridge, not the temple arm. The temple arm is thin and easy to break. Holding the bridge should be more secure. You may change your design slightly to accommodate that. Just remove one side of the walls from the holder. It should secure the bridge nicely.

Many thanks!
