Lights

Has anyone seen the Blackburn flea for sale in London? Does not seem to be stocked by bigger shops like Evans and cyclesurgery

^No, got mine form SJS though. great wee light.

just order from wiggle

£20 for the set:

had not realised they used a special usb cable, thought it was just going to be another micro usb cable

suddenly it becomes a lot more expensive

what 20 quid for the USB re-chargeable?

i had seen the 20 quid for the pair, but did not realise they did not have the charger cable

i think they re-charge offa any charged battery?
and most half decent rear lights are the best part of 20 quid anyways

I have the standard set and just bought the USB charger separately:

So you could get a F & R and 2 types of charger for about £26.

I sold a frame on fleabay and used the funds to buy one of these with a Redeye: Bloody good!

Good price from Wiggle, and I had a voucher!

still look like a sex aid

Fuck that a good deal.

see?

dropping one of these and fucking breaking the "bulb". that's that fucked right? new light needed.

You not able to replace the bulb?

I used to have those, it's an alright product but nothing can beat the Hope Vision 1.

go with mumble's suggestion of the fenix 120, or go for the Hope Vision 1 (with rechargable battery).

But the Hope is a Brick.

with the rear light attached to a backwards slanted seat tube, doesn't the light actually point downwards? still visible of course, but LEDs are strongest if you look right into them so must be less effective at a distance I reckon.
I was thinking that I could attach them to the top end of the seat stays, but then again the point slightly upwards.

any occasional drivers on here have an opinion?

What lights?

All the rear lights I have and have seen are adjustable.

What lights?

Innit :-$

see plenty of these every day. they got to follow the angle of the seat tube as far as I understand.

Those ones do but they have 5 lights in them that are all slightly angled out. They don't need adjusting.

eg:

how many pictures of lights can we post pointlessly?
