Did this wide angle lens improve things for you Charles? Still thinking of picking up the lamp you got as the polaris 7 i'm using at the moment is terrible. I can't see five feet in front of me on a pitch black cycle path.
Yeah. I did a night race and it was great. I had it mounted on the bars, but next time I'm putting it on my helmet using the included headband so that I can aim it. It was very bright - only time I noticed one brighter was the Exposure 6pack (which has 6 flood leds and is ?450)
Really small and very bright for the size, they don't come with a bracket as they have velcro straps so will go on anything.
Very happy with them but I cycle through a park on the way to work and whilst the front light is great at making you visible it doesn't light up the ground in front of you very well.
Perfect for on road use though.
Oh, they take those flat lithium batts - 2016's or some such.
Thanks I'll be shopping for them shortly - just waiting for my supply of 'C' batteries to dry up first!
A quick question about headsets.
Any idea how to adjust this one (bit of play in front wheel)
From what I've read it looks to be like an 'A-Headset' but it doesn't have the adjust thing at the top (in fact the top is just a cover and it's hollow all the way down the stem). The screw to tighten it up at the bottom is a temporary thing as the original allen bolt broke earlier when I tried to loosen it.
Normally you would loosen off the two side clamp bolts and then slightly tighten up the top bolt which drops down inside into a star nut wedged into the steerer tube. If it's hollow all the way down, how does the top cover stay in place?
