Tarty lights?

Having just got my dream bike today after months of eager anticipation, I'm wondering how to 'dress' her. As such I've just spent rather more than I'd planned on bottle cages...

*Ahem*

Okay, they were £30 each, but they are very shiny.

Next task is to find some lights that are also beautiful - I've spent a bit of time mooching around on the internet, but thought it would be fun to hear what lights YOU would choose as the ubertart accessory to your most stylish of steeds?

    Spent more than planned on bottle cages? Then happily do the same on lights!:

    USE Exposure MaXx Race is what you need - no separate battery to make things ugly you see, an all in one unit that'll make you visible and light up the road like a car headlight!

    (I use the Enduro MaXx as I used to do a lot of MTB night rides - means I get plenty of warning when there's deer in the road in Richmond Park! :lol: )
  • Another vote for the Exposure lights... The Joystick is plenty for road use and it's compact, tasteful and ludicrously bright (or 240 lumens IIRC for the sticklers...)

    Wow! Some big lumen ratings kicking about - I'm imagining that they would literally cut through the traffic like laser beams! Liked the Ay ups - but they don't come in white :twisted:

    Pretty tempted by the Down Lows too! How cool are they?! I have had a couple of beers to celebrate though, so my judgement might be impaired

    Nobody's mentioned rear lights yet?

    Get the Race MaXx 2 or Joystick MaXx 2 and you can attach this to it:
