Pet peeve rant warning:
Most LED taillights are highly directional, and as such, they need to be
mounted rigidly and aimed correctly "back down the road" to be most
effective.Personally, I think that bag makers should stop putting light loops

Thank you for all the replies. I would like a SON rear light that's always
on, and a secondary light. But, I dont have much room to mount a battery
powered one. I was looking for some kind of hanging light to attach to my
North Street trunk sack. The only hanging light I can find is Well
I have a SON28, Edelux 2, and the SON rear light mounted on the backside of
a Brooks. I don't feel totally safe with just the SON tail light, it's
great that it's there, but I def. augment it with something much much
stronger, namely a Diontte. I've been knocked off my bike three times in
I have the SON28, Edelux 2 and SON rack mounted tail light setup. Tools
required for a simple installation are zip ties (to secure the tail light
wire to your frame), a crimping tool (for the spade and ring connectors

I have two bikes with dynamos one has a B top light small but the best
solution I’ve found is the B taillight built into my Curana C Lite. I like

SON hub, B IQ-X headlight and rack-mounted SON taillight, hard wired with
the 2mm banana plug connectors. The taillight is 3.5 cm x 1 cm. Mu riding

dynamo because I was a little lazy and didn't want to deal with the wiring.
Last year I found a good deal on the fender-mounted Son tail light and

Good day Sean,
I know that this isn’t the answer to your question but both my local bike shop
and Rivendell stated, this fall (as I built up my own dyno Riv) that for a lot
