On the asphalt.
One thing I was thinking of was a post of all of the bike light manufacturers, with a couple words saying if they're mountain bike lights, HID stuff, or commuter/LED lights. There are so many smaller high-end bike light companies out there (a lot seem to be European), that it's hard to get a grasp on what's available.

This would take someone with way more knowledge of what's out there than me, but I could at least add a few.

Man, this is a nice compilation.... ought to at least be a sticky somewhere since we don't have a CPF bike lighting forum.

Edit: Oh never mind. I see it is a sticky already!. I just happened upon it.:)

I've been thinking of building a bike light lately. Mostly due to the fact that im looking for a new job closer to home so I can ride/bus it. Cant wait to get riding again. Nice work on the list.

We now have nearly as many new bike light threads in 2007
as we had for all of 2006, and the year is less than half over.

That is NOT counting new posts in 2006-and-before threads, of
which there have been quite a few.
