Recomendations for Mountable Rear Light
Posted: Sun Jan 06, 2013 12:37 pm
Hi guys, I recently bought a Toppeak Aero Wedge saddle bag and found that my rather tall rear light didn't play nice (similar to the one below) - as the mounting mechanism is mounted in the very middle of the bike, leaving very little room behind the saddle post for both accessories.
I tried mounting it on the rear of my saddle bag belt clip with a few zip ties, but the application was less than satisfactory so I'm in the market for a new light.
I tend to ride during the early mornings and afternoons but leave my light on almost always. Would prefer something that can clip on safely to a saddle bag or fit below it without being too bulky. I've looked at the following:
1. Smart 1/2 Watt Rear Light - Looks like it can be fitted to a clip, though I can't find any pictures to confirm this.
2. Knog Frog Strobe LED Rear Light - To Fit under the Saddle Bag
3. Oxford LED Silicon Skeleton Bicycle Rear Light - Because skulls are dope
Looking for a cheapy because I don't expect these things too last, nor do I find them objects of permanence.
Would appreciate any recommendations!
