Jigghead Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 Hi All, I start a week day riding in complete darkness. Now that winter is approaching, it seems I'm doomed to finish in the same fashion. I have tried a few lights and although I seem to get some distance from many of them, I'm now faced with the problem of not getting a very wide angle. Any suggestions on what light I could get for around R1K that would provide good light wihout being to close to a laser as far as beam width is concerned?
LOUDMAC Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 Check out Edge_Design for Magic shine lights.Or you could buy my Night rider Blow Torch. R1200.
PYGA1 Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 Get a Magic Shine MJ816 from www.easybike.co.za I paid R1,000 for mine, great light at a great price.
pezulu Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 The LED Lenser B7 goes sells for about R500-00.We got ours at a hiking shop. Outdoor Warehouse and Cape Union Mart also normally stock them. The torch comes with a bicycle clamp that is easy to use, fits easily on the handlebar or stem, and it is BRIGHT.It has 2 settings (full power and half) which can be selected by using the pushbutton at the back of the torch. I have been using the torch regularly for the past few weeks, and have not noticed any noticeable drop in performance.It uses 4 AAA batteries, which are included with the torch. There are quite a few reviews of them here on the Hub.

If I had the R500 to spare I would buy this B7.
