... another thought... I have a car mezuzah in my car, why not a bike mezuzah? Would that count?
Geonz Martha Stewart better move over!
The legend of the bike Mojo as I remember it is that it (the Mojo) finds you and your desire or willingness to bring it onto your bike is what brings you good luck.
I do think it's perfectly acceptable to claim your own mascot or good luck piece and for that matter name your bike, I always did before finding the fly or hearing about the legend of the Mojo. I couldn't imagine having a bike without that personal touch of a name or a mascot.
Receiving a Mojo is just cooler, I think and for me it happened when I was least expecting or thinking about it. I hope it happens for y'all too! Keep your eyes peeled but don't worry too much about it, just ride and have fun, it will happen and let us know when it does, please!

I think maybe you never heard of it is that it comes from the world of mountain biking.
Someone gave me a old Marvel figuring, Jane Grey I think, that they found while scuba diving. She had been buried in the sand and all the paint was worn off her nipples. (edit, I mean her boobs) We drilled some holes through her and zip tied her to my headset.... Wonder Nipples was my mojo for years. She mysteriously disappeared one day.
I too have always abided by the guideline that is has to be given, or found.
