What's the bracket/handlebar fitting on the RSP Asteri ?

It's a quick release bracket that fits both oversize and normal handlebars.

Incidentally, if you've got Ayups they've upgraded their lights and are allowing previous buyers to have their lights uprated cheaply in Feb. Check the website.

I recently bought an LED Lenser P7 torch for about £35 to be helmet mounted and supplement my Ayups. It's brighter than the Ayups and I could manage without them.

Do you know for same price you could have bought a LED Lenser H7, a helmet mounted version.

Hang the expense!

My recent investment in a hub dynamo is paying dividends as I use it during the day too when it's gloomy. Have had 3 drivers stop pulling out in front of me in daylight, one on a mini roundabout near Strensall, one in York centre off Monkgate and the 3rd just past that narrow bridge at Buttercrambe.

The front light is an IQ Cyo and is good and bright.

And another. Schmidt SON 28 and IQ Cyo. Fit and forget.

+1 for magicshine. Early days on reliability as it was a Christmas present but the beam illumination levels is excellent.

Another Magicshine man here very bright excellent value.

DX

New one at Dealextreme, 55mm diameter, supply your own 18650 batteries, better mounting bracket than the magicshine, £42.

Great if you already have the batteries and charger

As a complete aside from a be seen perspective these are stunning value, and are just good enough as low speed 'see by' lights to get me along the BOAT that is the pothole field "road" to the office en route to the station.

I have the IQ Fly with a Schmidt hub; I have been impressed with it, bright enough to see pot holes on my commute home, some of which are on unlit roads. That said I upgraded what was my secondary light, a Cateye EL 320 to a much more indulgent Exposure Toro MK2. In comparison to the IQ Fly where as before I could see pot holes, now I find that I can see them in my peripheral vision it's that much clearer/brighter; kiss of death no doubt! Will probably write the wheel off next time I ride home!

That's actually quite a lot of light for the money. Peter88 has linked to another ebay vendor who's selling the same light for £40.

Just had a look at your links the 1st one was for the 900 lumen and the second is for the 200 lumen, thats why its is chaper , though for £40 it was overpriced
