The light fitted no problem, and an initial look while illuminated was impressive &#8211; it certainly was bright! There were no issues with the fit to the seat-post and even the wonderfully pot holed roads of Stockport and Derbyshire didn\u2019t dislodge the light during the 2 hour ride.<\/p>\n<p>The only issue that arose was from my two ride companions, whilst I took my turn leading the ride my companions couldn\u2019t keep on my wheel due to the brightness of the light in flashing mode, the quote of \u2018it nearly had me foaming at the mouth\u2019 sort of sums it up.<\/p>\n<p>In essence not a cheap light but given the claimed massive 70 lumens output,\u00a0a light certainly for those who appreciate being visible to other road users.<\/p>\n<p>Marks out of 10?
