    the rear ones are good. I dunno about the front one on unlit roads, but they're half price at planet x

    Really doubt the front one will be good enough to see by - but fine for people to see you.

    1/2 Watt rear is great on the back though. Really bright.

    It'll work - you just won't be able to see where you are going!

    I got the Planet X winter bundle for 20 quid. Overshoes, lights and hat. The overshoes were the only thing I needed, so the lights went on son's bike. The rear one is bloody bright (painful following him) but the front is only really good enough to be seen, rather than using it to see where you're going on unlit roads.

    Actually, looking at the PX website I see that's the 7 lux front light I got :oops:
