Kool stop "tire" bead jack. Best gizmo I've used for getting really tight tyres on.

FWIW - On the net, I've only seen them on Jenson USA but I've also seen something very similar in Condor in London

Just be careful where you place them, is all...

And don't get too attached to them...

My Hope Vision 1's (2 of) - transfer from bike to bike easily and they are very bright, take AA's (so I use the hybrids with long standby time).

I use a pair of Hope 1's too, they're very good. They're also fairly good value alongside ayups and others and I like that they easily swap between the MTB for night rides and the road bike.

They're a bit heavy, but that is quickly forgiven when that searing White light starts boiling the tarmac

I wanted something that took AA's as the rechargeable li-ion cells are very convenient, until you forget to charge them.....

Ha, funny article. I did get some small LED backups and stuck a couple on the frame of my touring bike (not the Bog Frogs) I wasn't aware I was develping hipster cysts till now. Thank you, perhaps it's not too late!

Sorry to go off on a bit of a tangent but thanks for that post
i've just Googled these, they're exactly what I've been looking for but just didn't know it
I got caught out just last week after a double puncture on the MTB and ended up riding home in the half light with no lights or H-Viz.....
I'm definately going to be investing

Ill try and post a few pics so you can see what its like!
