    Do NOT use if cycling.

    Not sure I buy that - these are low powered LEDs - only viewable relatively close Plus any car that bounces around like like a cyclists bonce has some serious suspension issues !!

    It's a real shame in my book If I could buy a shaft driven , alfine 8 hub hybrid bike I would snap it up Unless it looked like that monstrosity !
