Recommendations for a front lighting system?
My commute is about an hour, on city streets, pretty well-lit.
Main purpose is to enhance visibility

In that case you don't need a "seeing" light, and one of the modern crop
of small blue-white LED lights such as the Cateye EL-300 will be perfectly
adequate.

Naturally rear lights and reflectors and reflective clothing are of
greater importance much of the time.

If you don't need a seeing light, then combine one of those
front LED lights (to be legal), with front and rear Xenon
strobes (to be seen).

You still need to be seen from the front in lighted areas
(i.e. cars turning in front of you).
