    Why so high? Lights on the handlebar…

    Thanks again, everyone, lot of issues I never really thought about. Since I'm going the flashlight/block route, I can always try it to see for myself, I suppose… I have used handlebar lights, but never great ones, and it's been a few years since I've ridden in the dark at all. I hate helmet...

    Why so high? Lights on the handlebar…

    Interesting, thanks all! I guess I wasn't thinking about grass, things other than 'roads,' etc. And for 'being seen,' that makes sense as well, in my mind I'm keeping my 'being seen' light separate from my 'seeing' light, so I didn't really put the two together into one… Looking into the other...

    Why so high? Lights on the handlebar…

    I'm rather curious as to why handlebar lights are so common? I'm looking to mount a flashlight to my bike, and of course the common solution is twofish, which mounts to the handlebars…*As do the majority of cycle lights… So I'm wondering why?

    Tiablo A9 as bike light?

    I have a new idea…*The Tiablo, much as I want it anyway, doesn't seem ideal…*I thought with the focusable aspheric, I could defocus it enough to get a bit floodier… I still like the idea of having some adjustment - I like to travel light, and the light will stay in my bag, on my person unless it...

    Tiablo A9 as bike light?

    Thanks for the response! Kind of a disappointment - I'd love a good excuse to grab one of those lights! ;) I guess my thought re: aspheric was that I could play with the focus enough to get good coverage…*But I guess that's not as plausible as I'd hoped. I had thought that from my reading of...

    Tiablo A9 as bike light?

    Hello all! First, I must say that I've lurked here for quite a while and learned a lot, made some well-informed purchasing decisions, so I must thank you all. Second, I'm about to get into cycling again, after a few-year break. The world of cycling lights has changed dramatically, reminding me...
