I'm not a road cyclist, but this seems to be the appropriate place for this question.
I've been doing night rides in town with a cheap Cateye light lately, and it's just not cutting it. Is there a dependable, durable - and relatively affordable light out there? I'd rather not spend more than $80 or so, but if I have to shell out big bucks for a quality unit then so be it.
I was nearly hit last night, and although I have no doubts that the driver swerved intentionally, it made me realize that a better light is in order (something that can blind the random jacka$$ would be great). And while I realize that riding at night is dangerous even with a light, it's really the only time I can ride during the week. Any thoughts/suggestions concerning a tail light would be most appreciated also.
Thanks!
