    What are the best bike lights to see by? I think I would prefer rechargeable ones and not mega expensive. Appreciate your thoughts...

    What Rear Lights For A Brompton?

    For me I usually end up clipping two lights onto my belt but would like something that works better and I don't have to keep checking they are still visible and not covered by my jacket. Any suggestions?

    In praise of Exposure lights customer service

    Always believe in praise where it's due. Been running an Exposure Race front light with a connected rear light for the last five years. Yes they are phenomenally expensive for a bike light, but for 2 1/2 hours daily use through winter I think it's a justified expense. Appreciate everyone's...

    No lights or reflectives on a dark busy road in the rain.

    Flashing lights

    I can understand maybe using a flashing rear light but the front? There are a few cyclists that use these and I can't think why anyone thinks these are safe? I was blinded the other day by someone coming towards me, the light was in the direct eye line of car drivers, its even worse for me...

    Right & Wrong

    Hi, I'm commuting to work 2 days a week and have a hybrid bike. I'm using the following lights: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00T4B4DNQ (Edited to be the correct light now) I have a fluorescent yellow jacket and backpack cover on so that I'm seen by as many people as possible as it's always been...

    Maximum number of lights connected to Dynamo hub?

    I am in the process of deciding on what lighting to fit to my recumbent trike. I already have the Son Dynamo on order, and would ideally like to fit numerous LED lights (2 front, 3/4 rear). I would also like to have a spare power output for charging mobile/gps or other USB device. Would a...

    How many lights is to many?

    I am all for been seen at night or anytime of the day in fact. I have my main set of lights and a cheap set of those rubbery things that wrap around the seat post, but on the way home tonight I was sitting behind a cyclist waiting to pass in the car and noticed he not only had a hiviz jacket...

    Lights going out

    I did an experiment recently to see what the burn time was on my Moon Meteor lights. I knew they would last me the length of my commute on the electric bike (approx. 55 minutes) but wandered if they would last long enough when I switch to human power in the Spring (I estimate it will take me...

    Which lights are best ?

    Thanks to Santa I have some money to spend on my bike, sorry two bikes now. (road bikes, or as I still call them racing bikes) I already have lights on one of them, but they were just cheap ones. I regularly see cyclists riding around with super bright lights, which seems to be the best...

    Electron Terra evo 2 front lights

    I have a set of Electron Terra evo 2 rechargeable front lights that I bought about a year ago to put on my sons bike for a few night rides. They have only been used twice and so are up for sale. They put out 320 lumens between them so are good enough for off road use as well as having a flash...

    Lights and Reflectors

    According to the RVLR one requires a front and back lamp flashing or not flashing according to some limitations but what puzzles me is the following it claims one needs rear reflector (i assume this could be on the person or bike mounted) but also one needs 4 pedal reflectors. Now how do you go...

    Jeremy Vine "Have you been blinded by bike lights?"

    Is it me or are the attacks on cyclists getting rampant? Nobody's been "blinded" by bike lights. Almost all are a tenth the strength of car headlights. Watchdog last night showed that if you so much as get on a bike you will smash your head open within seconds, they switched to a lensed camera...

    Potential bike lights bright enough to see what others had for breakfast

    Head Lamps

    Hi all, I've managed to get a decent front light which is quite bright, adjustable and does a reasonable job of lighting the way ahead, but a couple of sections of road I ride at night are completely in the dark, these are unavoidable on my commute and quite frankly even when I'm riding...
