A small purchase with a big punch

 

Bought a Ryder Concept 500 from Revolution Cycles end of last week ... this after 3 near death experiences over the last month with cars nearly t-boning be or driving into me from the front ... seems like 2 x smaller LED lights were just not enough to get their attention.

 

Fitted this little gem and cars / pedestrians definitely see me now, and I feel safe on the bike again!

 

The service from Revolution was excellent. Asked the salesman (Greg) to keep one under the counter for me to collect over lunchtime, when I arrived he had the the light under the counter and charging already as he knew I would be using the light the same evening when cycling home!

We have 3 of those in the household and they really work well. :thumbup:

I had the 250 crux before ..... then some skollie stole it off my bike at the coffee stop!

 

Been very happy with it to date.

 

The bright beam I recon I could take the bike off road with, and the flash certainly let's cars and pedestrians know you are approaching!!!!

what batteries do these take (500)? AA or the lithium 18650's?

500 =18650

Crux = not sure, don't think battery can be replaced?

Got me the new Garmin Varia radar at the London Bike show. Man it works a treat. It’s so handy being aware of cars approaching from behind.

SAFFA invention. Hope the guys cashed out nicely when they sold to Gamin
