    Blink/Steady: the world's most expensive rear bike light?

    Another over-engineered product that actually reduces its worth rather than enhancing it.

    £115 and you need to remove your seatpost if you want to change from flashing to constant. And really, do you need an accelerometer to switch it on? Surely that means it is on even in daylight unless there's an unmentioned on/off switch. besides, I like the choice not to fit lights when I know I won't be needing them. I'd rather not be regularly loosening and tightening a carbon frame and seatpost.

    It has light sensors instead of on/off switches.

    Still not worth the money...

    You're right, I think I skipped the bit about photo sensors whilst rolling my eyes as I read the article! ;-)

    A neat and entirely unneccessary way to package a light. When it fails, you throw your seatpost out? No thanks.
