| Re: Headlamp recommendations for night riding
So, is anyone using the HID setups like a Niterider
"Flamethrower"(http://www.niterider.com/BIKEPRODUCT...Thrower.html)?
Are these really *that* much better than lights half their cost? Man, these
are expensive. Is this the only way to really light up the road in front of
you?...or do these even accomplish that...?
Ok now....who sells the setup with the car headlight and a water bottle
battery? Sounds like that would work!
