Rear light fitted to a carbon frame

[cd365]

My carbon frame is very angular so fixing a standard rear light to the frame doesn't seem possible with the usual bracket. I have one on my seat post but wanted at least one other rear light (I cycle a lot of unlit country roads).

Any suggestions?

One of these. You can angle the bracket. Great light too.

You can always wrap a little bit of old inner tube round the seat stays to 'round it out'. Always worth doing to protect the paint finish !

The light I linked too above has a rubber gripper so will hold and mould easy to the seat stay whilst not scratching the paintwork .

I have got a knog skink, no brackets so easily swappable between bikes. Fits my funny shaped seat post with no issues.

I have one of these on the frame, under the seat post
The bikes a Canyon Aeroad and is also angular, but this is fine

I had a look at some of the suggestions and managed to get a cheapy ufo look light on the back with a bit of fiddling; this had been sitting around as a spare light.
I will probably buy a better one from the suggestions above.
Thanks for your help

I use these

Only £6 each and wrap around pretty much any part of the bike .
Ive just tried the rear light under the hoods and it tucks in there without getting in the way . I also ride dark roads and the idea of marking out the width of my bike is an attractive idea .
