Cateye HL-1600 Rechargeable Front Light 
Posted: 13/08/03
'NO BUTS'
Strengths:
Rechargeable batteries save you loads of money, and last 2-3 hours if kept charged properly (AA size so be replaced if they fail). The small red led means you have about 30 mins of battery left.
Overall:
Excellent bright light for commuting.

Continental Double Fighter Folding 
Posted: 13/08/03
'FAST HARDPACK TYRE'
Strengths:
Super fast, smooth on road. Enough side knobs to stay up in corners. My commute is mostly canal toepaths and a bit of road, they are ideal for this.
Weaknesses:
Obviously it gets interesting if muddy - but it helps sharpen your reactions and balance!
Overall:
Fast, excellent in the right conditions.

Mavic CrossRide - Front 
Posted: 13/08/03
'STRONG & RELIABLE'
Strengths:
Stayed absolutely true for over two years of almost daily riding. Have not had any problems with the bearings either.
Weaknesses:
Nothing significant really, needs special hub tool (supplied) and spokes if they ever break.
Overall:
Can't really go wrong with these, they are rock-solid, light.
