  2. Sticky Thread Sticky: The best headlights under $50 thread

    Just looking for something cheap but effective. This isn't really for any nighttime riding on the regular, but more for those times when I'm coming from a friend's house at night, for example.

  3. Sticky Thread Sticky: Light selection guide.

    Total Geekiness.] Since so many people are starting to get lights for the fall and I was bored, I came up with this. Edit: Updated 10/2/05 - V4 I realized since most of you commute, charge time is important, I added a column for that too. In most cases, I tried to list the lights with...

  1. P7D Flashlight with 'last mode' memory?

    I ordered this flashlight twice within the last year. http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.16092 First time - got it, loved it. Second time, got it, still love it... but no memory mode. When I turn it off/on, it goes into the next mode in the sequence. Don't know if this is a defect...

  3. E3 Tail light $56, E3 Seatpost Mount $132??

    O.K. I get it, Supernova made a really great tail light that must be worth the crazy price of $56. But they also make the same tail light with an adapter for your seat post that costs twice as much - $132. I get that the light is probably really great and worthy of such a steep price, but can...

  4. Anyone else use the Airzound?

    Well, I finally got around to ordering an Airzound air horn as part of my winterizing project. (I thought it was even more important to have a loud horn during the winter when drivers will have their windows up.) It came today, along with my pogies. Unfortunately, I didn't do enough research...

  6. Vetta tsl-c hack?

    I have 2 Vettas and love them. However, as many people have pointed out, while they are extremely bright and well priced they have a painfully slow flash rate that uses the "low" output level. Can anyone think of a way to add an external flasher to speed things up? Perhaps one could just leave...

  13. wireless computer -- overcoming interference?

    I have a Sigma 1606L wireless bike computer I like a lot. But My magicShine light creates interference and makes it fail. Is there a solution? Does the interfering noise come from the light or the battery? I also have a Garmin 305 I use with a "Minty Boost"...

  14. Shopping for a taillight

    My Ultrafire red taillight has disappeared. Theft or, uh, self-liberation while on a ride, I don't know. So I'm shopping for a replacement for a steady (not-blinking) red light out back (I already have a PB Superflash on my seat and on my helmet). Recommendations?

  17. MagicShine rubber band

    With my new MagicShine, I get two rubber bands. The larger one works on the bars. But I am wondering what's going to be the life of that rubber band. In time, rubber deteriorates and starts to get brittle especially when exposed to the elements. What are the alternatives to the rubber band?...
