Yes, agreed. I only had a problem when descending on bendy lanes but rather than having 2 which is too much clutter for me [very minimalist set up] I now have one light that has a much wider spread and keep the Hope as a back up. On the rear, the darker it is, the fewer lights you need, odd but true.
It's always worth having two.... as I discovered on Friday, (luckily in the gloom rather than the dark), that my rear light looked fine when I put it on the bike, but at the far end it was off (stupidly!!! I didn't actually think to see that it was off rather than batteries ran out, just assumed I had failed to turn it on), on the return journey I made sure it was on as I set off and sure enough it was off at the other end. At least this has now reminded me to go and replace the batteries which I failed to do on Friday!!!
Yes, I agree. I carry the spare ones in my pocket. Actually I am probably going to be selling my Hope because it is a bit heavy and bulky.
But you have something in Rutland that the rest of us don't, smooth pot-hole free roadsSome of the power listed for front lights on here is unbelievable, maybe an opticians appointment would be more useful.
Things are deteriorating round here, found a pothole the other day, very miffed, and it took the Council 2 whole days to repair it. Standards are not what they used to be.But you have something in Rutland that the rest of us don't, smooth pot-hole free roads
