I've got one but haven't unpacked it yet. A lot of positive comments about it on the usual cycle forums. I picked up the last one from my local store at around 11am. You'll be lucky if you find one at this time.

Yeah the reviews did seem positive, thats what I thought on stock too. Oh well they are not a million dollars for a branded one.

Not tried one, but the Exposure Flare is supposed to be good, there other rear lights are supposed to be excellent, but they piggy back off the front light for power.

The Smart Lunar R2 is an excellent light for the money and extremely visible.

Do a google search for Knog they do a wide range of lights.

I use a rear knog light and works well for me.

Just another bike value check, got the oppurtunity to buy a Specialized FSRxc Pro 2006. No dents or anything. It's been serviced twice a year at a LBS too.

How much would you guys pay for it, without brakes too?

I have the 2007 version but heavily upgraded now.
Probably worth £300-£400

Great thanks, it's selling for £300 (brakeless) so seems like a good deal

Not a problem, Bought it from someone on the BikeRadar forums.

Yeah, the FSRxc is a decent bike with a good frame. I've done about 3,000 miles on mine and now use it for regional XC races. Pics in link under sig.
