I'm looking for some recommendations on a self contained road bike front light, rather than something with a separate battery - I've got a solar storm x2 on the mountain bike but I want something smaller, more focussed, less spread, less clutter.
It has to be bright enough for some unlit country lanes, cycle paths, etc, and last a few hours.
Chinese cheapness preferred 🙂
Ultrafire 501b and a exposure joystick mount.
The mount will be the most expensive part, but you'll want something solid.
Won't last a few hours on high, but you wouldnt want it on high on the road very often, last ages on low.
There's an option for Torchy the battery boy (big f d d on ebay I think), can't remember the model but it seemed to go down quite well with a few folks
I use a B&M Ixus - proper beam pattern for not dazzling drivers and perfectly fine at the speeds I ride at.
B&M Ixus premium FTW. Takes rechargeable AA batteries.
