I got these but haven't figured how to put them on. They snap on? I'll look at them again...

I just got three brackets for mounting a planet bike superflash blinky. I have one such blinky, and I'll buy two more. Then I'll see if I can fashion a bar and put all three mounts and blinkies on it. I want to be able to move the bar from bike to bike. (I have lots of bikes.) I figure I'll make the center light glow constantly and have the side lights blink.

I have a nice modern flashlight mounted to my handlebars and a new Blackburn X4 mounted to my helmet. I might reverse these, but so far, so good. So I'll have two headlights and three taillights. If I can get these spoke lights to work, I'll be set.

These headlights get me a lot of respect. I even run the helmet light in the day. Car drivers have become very kind to me and cautious. And this is Noo Joizy we're talking about!

Aaron, I had those lights. I might still have them somewhere. But I really don't want to run anything but modern lights nowadays.
