Any suggestions for a good small rear light that might work well with the Giro Sutton or just a helmet in general? My helmet has a little clip for a rear light which is nice. I've considered the Blackburn Flea, but I'm looking for others and haven't come across much yet.

Check out the planet bike spok lights. I have a white and red, mounted with velcro to my helmet. Quite light weight. I do not rely on these as the sole means of "being seen" lights. I do like having something mounted on my helmet as I think it is more noticeable in certain situations.
