In contrary to my previous road bike, I do feel comfortable riding my Z Pro at night. However, visability is an important issue when riding in the dark. I've always been a fan of bright blinking tail lights. I've been using the CATEYE TL-LD600 for years now. Since the seat post of CF bikes is bigger than conventional ones, we had to think of something different to mount this tail light to the Z Pro. My friend came up with a very simple idea : he drilled a small hole just underneath the seat pan to attach the tail light holder :
After that, it's as easy as on a conventional seat post to put the tail light in its holder (or take it out, if necessary). The light is positioned just underneath the seat and very visable !
In front, I use 2 5-LED head lights from PRO. They both got a steady and a flashing mode and provide plenty of light :
All of my lights run on rechargeable batteries, which is the right way to run them, if you care about the envirement ;-).
