    I'm surprised there isn't some sort of laws regarding these high powered lights on bikes, on my way to work in the early hours of the day I'm always blinded by these idiots riding on the footpaths with their portable suns pointing my eyes

    • Surely temporary blindness is better than being jailed for failing to look out for cyclists.

      That's why I use my light bar on them, take that 20,000 lumens. This in no way is an endorsement for this activity just I get migranes indused by light flicker so it makes me feel better. Placebo.

      Hahaha well to be fair we do state that it is for Mountain Biking! Predominantly so you can see the path through the trees, or is it forest?

        Don't think anyone's having a go at you for selling these it's the idiots who use overly bright lights on their bikes with no regard for other road users.

      nice to know that someone is looking when they are walking. I thought most people now a days work with their eyes on their phones and ears covered in noise cancelling headphones

      • storyteller didn't state they were walking :)

      Anybody over 12 riding on a footpath is breaking the law (in victoria anyway) regardless of whether it is night or day.

      • +2

        Or if riding with your kids.
        But it is a dumb law and going to be changed in WA.
        In the NT, cyclists on footpaths have a 20km/hr speed limit. Obviously, bikes need to go slower on a footpath than they would on the road.

    Use a light and upset folks for being too bright…..don't use a light and you are an idiot with a deathwish for not being visible enough. Cyclists cant win either way! It seems we need the 'Goldilocks light' not too bright and not too dim…just right, where do I buy that?

    • Haha well never to miss an opportunity to show off a great deal the moon mask & shield could hit the spot http://www.bikes.com.au/p/9021778/light-pack---moon-mask-shi…

      Larger reflector, less lumens will make it just as easy to be seen and won't blind people who look at it. I still have my twin beam cateye quartz halogens - HLNC200. Looks like a car light, not an arc welding flash.

      • +1

        Halogens, sonny? Too dazzling. I prefer my whale-oil hurricane lamps.

      • Genuine question: wouldn't a larger reflector make the beam more focussed and less than ideal for riding on the road?

        Thinking out loud, I would have thought the ideal would be a small reflector with some sort of diffuser to soften the light. Or a barrier across the top of the light (below eye level) to focus the light along the road but prevent spillage.

        • Depends on the shape of the reflector.

    • It's not that I hate cyclists or anything but like car headlights are designed not to point up or have a 180deg up and down beam to blind everyone incoming etc

      • +1

        Bike lamps can be physically dipped, just like car lights originally were. It is operator error.

        It does not matter if you or the other guy is in car or on bike - if they dazzle you with high beam, flashing your own, brighter, high beam usually gets the point across.

        (The 180 degree part is not normally the problem, but the brighter patch in the middle, created by the reflector.)

    I like to use flashing blue and red lights on the back of my bike. Flashing blue lights tends to make people slow down and be extra cautious.

    • +5

      til the police pull you over as only emergency services can use blue lights

      • +1

        WRONG
        Bicycles can use blue lights.

        • well there you go. i didn't know thought. i thought the only vehicles that could use blue lights were emergency services. Thanks. I've learnt something

          still white on the front, red on the rear.

        • @jasonc:
          Yep. You need a white on the front and a red on the rear.
          In addition to that you can have any color combinations you want.
          Blue lights are not allowed on a MOTOR vehicle. OK on a bicycle though.

    Nice, but very expensive compared to online alternatives.

    $50 del. for dual XM-L (vs unspecified in the Serfas) . I have an older model from there, still going strong.

    If you have access to a mail forwarding service in the US, the Fenix BC30R is amazing for the money. Use the code "fenixpromo40" for 40% off and it comes out at $84USD with free shipping in the US. 100-1600 lumens, and 800 lumens for 2 and a half hours is pretty good.

    EDIT: That code works for all lights on their site, including lights that are on sale.

  • I have had Ay-Ups for years now and highly recommend if you are after top quality lights.
