Obviously LED technology is superior to HID's in terms of bulb life , battery longevity and instantaneous full-power when turned on, but they haven't surpassed HID's in terms of sheer lighting power. The triple shot is the best offering so far with three 3W bulbs......but, depending on what kind of night riding you plan on doing and your budget, you may be better served getting a cheaper set of non-HID's. Definately I'm not saying that the Cateye isn't for you, just the beam power might not be what you're looking for a the moment. Check the mtbr.com lighting comparison for better clarification of the different beam properties.
