Ha ha its raining not a lot of chances for me to ride but have one now & rain oh well try next weekend!
Cheers
I already got soaked 1 to many times this weekend

you guys suck.. I'm already out and now I have to ride home in the rain. :P

ppposeur!

no!

Back to seriousness: Has anyone made their own 10/20w Dual Halogen setup with Nimh batteries? Would it be cheaper just to purchase a system from niterider or light & motion? Thoughts?

Need something like 3-4 hour runtime with both on.

lovely riding today.. too bad y'alls are *******. ;)

hey, we did indeed ride today. me and darkmother, and one guy from the toronto fixed group. not 100k, but some nasty hill work instead. a little rain but that's okay. and yes, somnambulant, i was there a little before 10, but we hung around until about 10:30 because no, we never do things on time.

I wussed out :|

Next week, i'll be there with my new frame.....!!!!

Edit: operator > Somnambulant

full on Sunday wussiness, didn't even walk to the store until it stopped raining... :lol:

don't blame anyone for wussing out; it was soggy and muggy out there. i haven't ridden in a month so i had to get out there...

Bike messenger? :D

That paint job costs more than any of you are prepared to pay.

With that kind of wattage/runtime you are gonna need a really good battery. For the time it would take and the potential hassle getting the right battery I would just buy complete. What do you need 30 watts total for anyway? I had 20 watts on the trail in the 24 hour and had more than enough to see in the pitch black. Some of the new systems use a smaller wattage but have a higher candlepower output. I would suggest the NiteRider Moab...12 and 13.5 watt lights....8 hours runtime on full burn....a bargain at $1100.

Pure Gold!

lol x 2

My my Halloween is right around the corner now isn't it?

2 months is around the corner? Damn...I better stock up on candy then.

Only if I can borrow your Hello Kitty iPod holster for my bag. ;)

You can have the matching shoes too if you like. They are not SPD tho.

Yessah, I was planning to do some road rides on completely unlighted streets in the middle of the night. Something like 30kph-35kph must be able to see where i'm going. Maybe 10w/20w with a narrow beam instead? Hmm.

I was hellbent on getting 2x 10w or 2x 15w ... something like that. Has to be dual. http://www.batteryspace.com/index.as...S&Category=499

HID is teh $$.

Here I am in 2005; I went trick or treating with my sister's kids and I got a lot of candy :)

yo op

I got the crankbros smarty pedals...they work nice...well... way better than 100 year old onza clipless pedals!

i could never tell what that was.

You don't need really high power to ride on pavement. I would think even 2 x 10W halegen would be lots. Beam pattern is important, plus you can get tons more light out of halegen bulbs if you overvolt them, but bulb life suffers. Make sure you get something with a true smart charger.

Yo Sham....gotta bail from the shop for a few hours.....gonna be back after 6. P.m ing you my cel #

I still can't tell

I thought it was like a Rorschach of some type. :D
I have a burning building costume in the basement, complete with Superman flying to the rescue. I don't know how ridable it would be though, might need some renovation. It's foam though, could act as padding during alleycat vector crossing.

rob, strap 50 of these to each of your fork legs. it'd be a b!tch turning them all on though.
