problem is.. I loose front lights ALL the time. I've had the same rear cat eye for about years now (held together with many bits of tape)... but front lights, I just can't keep hold of them for some reason.

Dan, my lights bolt on and would take an allen key to remove. Have even survived night riding off road crashes. Get a decent set of lights and you won't loose em.

Has anyone noticed that rear light knogs are designed to be placed on the seat post, yet the design means that the L.E.D's are actually facing downwards slightly due to the angle of the seat post.

Nope, as the lights are angled slightly so the LEDs come out straight.

Unless they've changed the design since I last bought mine but my rear tyre gets a better view than other road users.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
