I couldn't find any Aldi or Lidl lights, so ended up going for the Lezyne light suggested by Bacam. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=21831#post-381666 Tue, 21 Oct 2025 20:11:43 +0000 Arellcat 381666@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I've been using Lidl's own brand front/rear light set for a few years now and really like it. STVZO-compliant beam up front has a good throw, and the wee red LED for the back is also pretty bright. I use the rear one as backup to another rear, and generally run one (and sometimes two) of the front lights, with a Moon Comet as back up. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=21831#post-381663 Tue, 21 Oct 2025 19:32:13 +0000 gembo 381663@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I had a little blinks Lezyne on tonight was not bad when darkness thumped down early. Lot of people dressed entirely in black walking black dogs. Only going to get worse next week </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=21831#post-381654 Mon, 20 Oct 2025 22:09:12 +0000 bacam 381654@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I've got a cheaper, lower power Lezyne STVZO set (which Tredz have for £36) which I've found to be pretty good, including the odd bit of unlit canal. In particular, the beam shaping makes it much easier to light paths further ahead without blinding oncoming pedestrians. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=21831#post-381650 Mon, 20 Oct 2025 17:14:06 +0000 spytfyre 381650@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>UT cube x<br /> Love it<br /> Possibly not best for unlit path though haven't had to rely on it that far </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=21831#post-381632 Sun, 19 Oct 2025 14:30:24 +0000 neddie 381632@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Lezyne do a STVZO compliant front for £55.

Nothing fancy or super expensive. Any suggestions greatly appreciated. </p>
