Hey guys
Got my first full suss and loving it.
But now I need to be seen as going to work at 07:00 its quite dark.
Can anyone recomend a rear light, I was looking at the t1100 ten light system from cateye but some people say clamp is bad and some people have said they have lost some on bumpy terrain.
Any ideas
Thanks

To be honest, Id go with the td 1100.

Ive never had any problems with the clamp mechanism so far (touch wood).
If not then the ld610, although this might be a tad wide

There is also the TL-au100bs

This is designed specifically for the uk, although i think that just means its waterproof and mudproof.0 -
td1100 here too, i run it with ansmann 2xAA NiMH 2700 mAh rechargables.0

The Blackburn Mars 3.0 is a very good rear light, it's pretty bright too.0

Wow not too bad for about 15.00, might check this one out for cheap prices.
Thanks guys0 -
I have these for commuting: http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Mode ... elID=14825
Cheap, bright, fit oversize MTB bars, batteries last forever.
The back light is better than the one shown in the picture and has loads of little LED's pointing in all directions.
Edit.
I would add that they would not be much use for any serious off-road work as the ad claims. Maybe ok for commuting down a familiar country lane or park but that would be it.0 -
Just glue them in place. I used to have one glued and clipped onto my saddlebag, it came off when the saddlebag came off though...0

Just bought the ld1100 cateye 24.95 from merlin free delivery so cant complain.
And I heard cateye are market leaders in rear lights.
Will give it a go.
Thanks guys for all your help .
P.s. could not find the s-sun ones anywere, seemed discontinued.0
