the headlight is more of the "to-be-seen" type. riding in well-lit area and is fine.
the taillight bracket is bulky. will get in the way of ur thighs.

actually with rm149, u can get an ultrafire headlight from bbs and a skully blinker. or maybe a knog blinker.

yes something like that. but the it drains battery real fast. so again, depends on what u want really. what do u want to use the light for? to-be-seen OR to-see?

if want to be seen, u can even use white blinkers like skully or knog. or some really cheap white blinkers from bbs. or that cateye works fine. i use cateye uno.

but don't use those similar to knog beetle or knog bullfrog.

If my memory serve me right, these two below cost less than RM130. That's was 6 months ago when i last inquiry.

anyway, it's all depends on your location, availability of time. no point drive all the way to Batu Caves for these 2 items bcoz it's cheaper.

that tail light bracket is huge. i remember one fella in this LYN Cycling thread complained about it. i had the same prob, but i was lucky i could exchange it for something else from the shop

that headlight is weak. about the same brightness as the uno, but heavier and bigger in size

ok..

it's what u pay what u get.

the headlight is for to be seen not to see. a few grams more and wind resistance wont slow you down by 10km/hr to compromise your safety. it's your choice.

more budget opt for smaller n powerful lights then.

with the price paid for those cateyes, better go with other options. more compact and robust and still look good if left on the handlebar. for the same price. like i explained earlier
