Ridiculously cool rear light.

See the full chat here: http://blinksteady.com

Bike light that turns on/off automatically depending on wether you're moving or not.
Have it fitted one way up - the light blinks, the other way way - the light is steady. Hence the name.

Anodised silver aluminium. Fits seatposts 25.5mm - 27.2mm.
Comes with super special security bolts. Great nick!

Cost me £100 new. Yours for £70. Collect in E14.

That's nice looking.

And ridiculously expensive.

I'm failing to see how this improves on a £30 light with a button to select between on/off/blinking ?

I'm failing to see how this improves on a £3 light with a button to select between on/off/blinking ?

You can buy a whole bike with lights for not much more than this.

I fail to see how a bike with no freewheel or brakes improves upon one with both, but hey, hipsters will be hipsters!

No gears on your bike, no buttons on your light.

It is a pricy bit of kit. Maybe I didn't make it obvious: turns itself on when it's dark enough and the bike is moving. Turns itself off 30 seconds after you stop/ when it's bright/ when you put your hand in front of it. Pretty nifty.

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:

```

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.
