I have noticed that one of the negative comments regarding indicators on this thread received rather a lot of likes. It seems to me that this forum consists of just a few regulars that just seem to agree with each other as long as it's a negative. I would imagine that these members ride high...

Now i'm thinking my original post should really have read "WingLights - What a blinking good idea" Thanks to this forum for making me aware of WingLights. Apparently, the designers of this product were interviewed by the BBC last night. Should be interesting. Much more info to read and see here...

They are of a similar fitting but otherwise totally different. These cheap Chinese ones are plastic and come with either flashing red or clear lights. What's the good of that !? The WingLights are a quality metal design with amber light flashing at the same rate as motor vehicles. See photo...

Thanks for this. It's exactly what i had in mind. I shall be ordering these. More expense!

I find they work well. They flash at the same rate as a motor vehicle so there is no mistaking what they are. They have got to be the brightest LEDs on the market today. They would have been better if they were made without the mirror, just a light. NOTE: These are actually designed to fit into...

I didn't make the gloves, they were also made in China.

Or you can buy mud-flaps on Ebay, from Germany, quite cheap.

The SKSs are a bit narrow for my Big Apples so i fitted these Viking mudguards. They came with all the fittings including mudflaps and were only £16.95 a pair including next day delivery.
