sides of the frame. Joe



Thanks Joe, that is a very good idea.

Thanks everyone, i'll make sure I post my results in the coming weeks.

The Knog Frogs arrived a few days ago. Yet to try them out on the road
to see how much blocking my legs do. I was surprised at how bright they
were! Easy to fit.

So now that's it's proper dark by the time I ride home I thought i'd
give an update on how the Knog Frogs are doing.

Well they are no longer nice and clean and white!

For little things they are nice and bright and when flashing can be
seen from some whey away and draw attention nicely.

Legs don't seem to restrict forward visibility but do move past the
light for sideways visibility as is to be expected. However a nice side
affect is that when the light hits my rotating spokes you get a nice
band of light flicking round the wheel which helps sideways visibility.

Overall very pleased, With 4 frogs you could have 2 facing forwards and
2 facing sideways.

You could always find someone who sells 'miners helmet'
(http://tinyurl.com/6extko) as these have some mighty powerful lights
themselves.

I had a red froglight that I used during RTL... It's gone missing since
then, but they are really nice and bright.

Hmmm, my red one went missing too. Maybe someone was going around
hoarding them.
