Do you want something for the actual trail, like on a night ride? Can't recall seeing anyone use one tbh, but in any case, won't a simple led for a fiver do the job? They're highly visible, without illuminating much of anything. But it's not like you need to do that behind you - sry if this is a pisstake and I've misunderstood.

No not a piss take, genuinely looking for something for night trail riding and to get me home on the road afterwards. A rear LED with tool free fitting. Cheers.

get 2 - one on your seatpost, one on your back.

both lights move side to side as you pedal - but not quite in perfect sync' - and this is highly eye catching.

Try the new blackburn flea, very small nice clip, no batteries.

Ive got a rear light fitted in on the underside of my FiZik seat, check that your saddle doesn't have a slot for one. Its waterproof and doesn't move on any of the trails I go on so never have to take it off.
