Master 1963    |  Subject: What rear bike light do you use?Looking for recommendations, wanting something that is bright, lasts, durability, and I would like it to have a reasonably wide field of view so it can be seen a little from the sides. Thanks for any helps! |

Master 1790 Tyler, TX | Subject: RE: What rear bike light do you use? It's hard to beat the Planet Bike Superflash. It's bright, solid, and cars know you're around. I used two taillights on my commuter bike, one being the Superflash. The other one is good also, but sometimes will turn off when hitting a good bump... http://www.performancebike.com/bikes/Product_10052_10551_1064923_-1_50000_20000_50500 Brian |

Master 1222 Lafayette, IN | Subject: RE: What rear bike light do you use? PB superflash. On blinking mode, it is so bright that it irritates riders behind you! |

Expert 1076 Las Vegas, NV | Subject: RE: What rear bike light do you use? Cat Eye TI-ld610. Bright, different flashing patterns to annoy riders behind you and mounts well to the seat post.  |

Master 1286 Mt Pleasant, SC | Subject: RE: What rear bike light do you use? Hello I use one that has two settings- random blink or solid red. When I ride early in the morning (dark) I use it on blink mode, plus I have a front head liight and wear a reflective vest. Now I passed this guy on the way home riding blank out style & took a picture of him while I was stopped at a light.

Master 2460 | Subject: RE: What rear bike light do you use? PB Superflash is the most highly regarded bang for buck rear blinker out there. Ask on bike forums commuters/lighting, and this is far and away the favorite. I have two - they're great. |

Regular 72 Lancaster County, PA | Subject: RE: What rear bike light do you use? So nobody has had problems with their Superflash? IF I can get mine to turn on - it's almost impossible to change modes, I have to smack it against my palm to get anything to work, AND it simply turns off whenever it feels like it. Maybe I just got a bad one. However I do really like the mounting options and the belt clip works great for when I want to use it for a night run. |
