On the 2nd Oxford light now , both with the same issue . The contacts are slightly too far apart for the batteries to be a good fit . When you take the lens off the batteries fall out ! Tried tweaking the contacts I've seen some people have used silver foil but I want a permanent solution .The shop is going to have them back so looking for an alternative make for about a tenner ? Millions of choices to fit on seatposts but the only other rack mounted one I can find is made by Smart . Wonder if that is any good ?
RSP Tourlite - I love mine, it's ace
Looking at pics can't see the back , does it bolt on to the rack ?
Cateye do a bracket that bolts to the rack mounts, I think rsp use the same clips. Personally tho id go for a B&M topline, I have the dynamo version and its really good for visibility without blinding drivers so the cant actually tell where you are.
There is a [url= https://www.rosebikes.co.uk/article/b--m-toplight-line-senso-battery-back-light/aid:527826?gclid=CjwKEAiA__C1BRDqyJOQ8_Tq230SJABWBSxniBA5oXhco6xX4vGGrYI4HneDGDbIqNz1tIb-W4R8yBoCaB7w_wcB ]battery version[/url].
Good review of the light [url= http://mccraw.co.uk/toplight-line-plus-review/ ]here [/url](dynamo version).
+1 for the RSP Tourlite.
Yes, it bolts onto the rack - so long as your rack has the standard plate on the back, with holes 50mm or 80mm apart. It is fairly bright, with a nice wide reflector, I think that makes a big difference for getting noticed.
I araldited a mount for a moon comet to my rack works a treat.
yup, my CatEye used to come with a screw that would would fit a rear rack (and also clip onto Topeak e.g. racks).
radbot comes with rack mounts in the pack - 1000 version is good for daylight
not a lot of side visibility in dark so i have a fibre flare ziptied on as well
[url= http://www.sjscycles.co.uk/busch-and-muller-d-toplight-permanent-battery-led-light-50-80-mm-vario-fitting-prod15314/ ]Something like this?[/url] My rack doesn't have the plate so I bolted a pair of P-clips on to the light that loop over the rearmost rack tube
I had a very positive comment on the RSP Tourlite, saying they could see it miles away
Batteries seem to last ages in it, although I have 4 back lights just in case! (1 helmet, 2 on the bike, 1 on my rack pack)
Takes 2 AA batteries. It's apparently very waterproof but it's quite tucked away and I have mudguards so despite riding in the rain it hasn't been properly tested really
It's also got a nice big fat reflector on it
I've got a rack mount for my Smart R1 light - works a treat and can be seen from miles away.
evans sell a bracket for £1.50 to fit any cateye rear light to your rack.
Cateye. you can then move the lights between bikes on any of their rear mounts (saddle, seatpost, rack, seatstay).
B&M are also very good, Have one on the Topeak Beam rack.
Some old innertube and your favourite seat post light...
For me 2 PlanetX Phaart and 1 Knog blinder. Phaarts are set to flash and blinder to constant
I've had a few people comment on how good visible this setup is, only problem for me is the blinder only gets around 3.5 hours between charges which is a bit of a pain.
