Financial blackhole 4tw!

Well it's a great light for the price (where else are you going to get waterpoof 4xAA 200L light for $99USD) but it's just not bright enough for me. On completley unlit paths, it's great up till around 25kph. But on the streets it's washed out by the streetlights. And the whole reason I wanted it was to be able to see between the lights. For the price however, it still beats the MEC Nitehawk K2 emitters - $200 for 3w LED? No thanks.

So next up for me is the 13w HID system from batteryspace ($200). Supposedly 740-750lumens. Which is brighter than the Dinotte 600L ($399USD). I'm just really picky with my lights. I need something with long runtime, non proprietary battery, not heavy and super bright = $$$.

Koolstops are the only pads you ever need to buy, they're like $10. The best! And it also comes in cool wet weather red pads which matches my frame colour.

I don't have them anymore, but the profile centuries have a shim to 26.0 bars and nonshimmed 31.8. I can get you a good deal on a profile basebar & carbon aerobars (< $50). Pm me if you're interested.

I'll trade it for lets be friends. ****ing garbage.
