First impressions.
This light was purchased from CRC for £53.00 (they had a 10% off everything offer on (normaly £59.99)) two weeks before Christmas and arrived about a week later. It came in a sturdy box with all the components well packed in a fitted foam liner for protection and the battery is already charged so it will work straight out of the box.
I got round to fitting it to my bike yesterday. The first thing I have to say is that it does not have a quick release fitting for the bar clamp, it is a threaded bolt in a swiveling nut so once it is on it would be best to leave it on and just remove the battery which is what I have done. The cable from the lamp to the battery is about a metre long so I have located the battey at the top of the seat tube and even then some of the cable needed to be coiled up. I will add to this review in about a weeks time when I have had chance to go out with it on my commute to Church a few times.
