You're 100% correct. I was clearly having a moment. WE - CW....they all sound the same. Let's call it a brain blip 🙄

Scroll back in this thread and you'll find your answers. Free warranty replacement available & they're simple to fit yourself.

How does a group of 12 take up the whole road?

Sounds good but where does one find route information? Nothing obvious on the Trails end website. Article seems a bit redundant without actual relevant information ☹️

Does one get a sticker to display prominently on one's bike? Asking for a friend...

There's always going to be a potentially better bike out there, but realistically the best bike is the one you have!

@PandaAttack1 if you really want your partner to get into cycling then best you save some budget for decent bib shorts & the right saddle for her. Nothing quite kills enthusiasm like discomfort down south... Likewise forget about a carbon frame for yourself, rather get a decent Alu frame bike but if at all possible find the lightest bike available for your partner. Light bikes are fun, heavy bikes not so much. Of course I'm making some serious gender stereotypical remarks, if your partner does a lot of strength training then perhaps a heavy bike won't phase her! I'm going to get slated for this, but I'd even consider a 2nd hand carbon 26er hard tail for your partner....light, fancy & relatively cheap... Good luck!

Definitely suggest looking into joining the PPA rides.

I would, but I don't think my bike is specialized enough... plus the light appears to have a proprietary mounting bracket, which unfortunately wasn't still attached when I found the light 😆

No need to do that, I can see it whether it's on or off 😉

Hey @Matt any way to bump this to get some visibility?

Just trying to get this visible
