Anyone else get eye ache when night riding? After 30 mins or so my eyes start to ache and I get a headache. It's really annoying!

I use a helmet light and a bar light - both the DX type.

Thanks,

T

Are the lights flashing at high frequency and not actually on constant?

You want a nice halogen light, none of this new fangled LED rubbish. 🙂

Yup they would be flashing if I have them dimmed. Still the frequency of the flashing should be high enough that I shouldn't notice it. I can't see it visibly flashing.

With my Airbike on it's low setting I can see it strobing on my front tyre as it rotates.
