My Downtube VIII H laden with gadgets!




This is my bike with wireless indicator lights for front & back (front unit controls back unit which also has rear brake light, red night light and rear indicator unit). Also includes my normal bike computer and the left a special holder for my HTC P3300 GPS phone which can be very useful! Another photo of front indicator unit below!

Can you show more detail? I've always been interested in a single control unit for lights and blinkers. Is this a DIY device or did you buy it?

Looks interesting... a shot from a bit further away would be nice too. Is everything else stock or are there other mods?

I'll take another few photos. The lights are called B Seen 101 and I got them on eBay from a reseller who I believe sources liquidated goods. Further investigation reveals the company behind them no longer exists. They used to charge a ludicrous £90 ($180) for them, no wonder! I got mine for £7 on eBay UK and £9.50 delivery in the UK. That covers multiple purchases up to 25KG so I bought 4; one for another bike and the rest to keep as spares. Here is the listing:

Sadly they do not send outside the UK but you could always get a friend to get them for you if you really desired the unit. I find them excellent and it really increases my visibility in London, night and day.

The nearest one to this is a rear only unit controlled by a front switch:
