I came across a long 48" (1.22m) 12dbi antenna yesterday - an Intellinet 502306. I was thinking it could double as one of those long bike flag poles, almost.

Any advice about this antenna, brand, or long antennas in general?

Are you thinking of a mobile or static mount? I don't know if these are flexible.

I was thinking of it as a mobile mount on my bike.

I would think a 4 four foot long antenna on a bike would be rather awkward, but if it works....
