  1. 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. 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?

  4. 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?...

  5. The tiniest pump in all the land!

    Hiya. I'm in the market for a little bike pump to take with me when riding. I don't want one of those co2 jobbies, and short length is more important than slimness. I was kinda eyeballing these soma atom pumps. The smallest of the bunch being just under 4 inches. ...

  6. 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...

  9. Has anyone tried the Magicshine 900 lumen?

    Someone posted a link in the Commuter forum to a 900-lumen LED light called Magicshine. They only cost $90 for the light, charger and battery. The light has 3 settings -- 900 lumens, 500 lumens and SOS flash with a 3 to 4.5 hour run time. Even if the light output is not as high as claimed, this...

    Per the Supernova web site the latest Supernova E3 Triple headlight is putting out 680 Lumens. If true then it is one powerful LED dynamo light. http://www.supernova-lights.com/en/e3_triple.html I personally have been skeptical :eek: of some of the light output levels claimed for dynamo...

    So the time has come for me to transition my life to a Mac. Of course, one of the things I'm looking forward to is using Ascent as my ride tracking toy. On my PC I used Sporttracks, as well as logging my rides through MotionBased/GarminConnect and GTC. Does anyone know how I can import my old...

  14. Why are P7 flashlights not being sold much in the US?

    Ok, it's been at least a year, if not more since P7 flashlights on the cheap hit Dealxtreme. 500+ lumens or some ridiculous number like that for $35 or so. I bought one, and it delivers the goods, for real. Everyone who gets a working one loves it. So what's up with companies like Fenix NOT...

    I just got my bike 3 days ago and am loving it, but I am a little suspicious of computers that sit on your handles bars and have 12 functions etc. Does anyone know how accurate these things are and if they are worth believing or buying?

    I very simply want to cut the wire joining my dynamo hub to my light, and insert a connector (presumably attaching a male connector to one end of the cable and a female to the other) that will allow me to quickly disconnect and connect the wire so that I can take off and put on the wheel at my...
