I have Lumis are they are excellent, but pricy. Smart do some good lights
which are much cheaper.

Thanks. I just popped into my local cycle shop - where I bought my Marin a
few years back - and they suggested two types. One was a dual front light
that cost £30 but the baterry supply was enormous. The second, which they
recommended, was a much smaller light and rechargeable battery that gives
about 2 hours worth of light - it cost £60. The guys said it was the one
that they used and they felt that one would be ideal for my need but they
said they would suggest two of them if someone was going off road.

The word 'Smart' was mentioned but I think that was the cheaper light. Both
of them could have been Smarts although Lumis rings a bell now. Perhaps I
saw that on the smaller light box.

They said that any standard rear light would work and they had a wide range
of ones all of which can be full on or flickering. I am taking my bike in
tomorrow to see if the £60 light fits the handlebars.

Does the above sound about right?

Thanks,


John.
