Front light recommendations?
Posted: Tue Jun 22, 2021 5:01 pm
A year or so I had my front light stolen** I had been managing around the city since with my previous light, but I tried to ride in complete darkness and it was a fail. I had to ride the brakes downhill because it wasn't bright enough to show potholes (and eventually muntjak deer) at any distance which left me going too slow to happily climb the next rise.
I would love to get a replacement for the light that I lost because I have 3 spare batteries. Unfortunately, I can't see any out there (Moon XP300/XP500). My inclination is to buy a Moon Meteor X because it's cheap at halfords, I like the brand and gets good reviews.
Any other suggestions? I am not doing much night riding, so don't want to spend a fortune.
**The theft is infuriating. I took it off my bike, when there was about zero chance of it being stolen, then left it on a shelf in a shop for 5 minutes. It was gone when I got back, and I rang the shop the next day, it wasn't handed in.
