Belgian man sets cargo bike hour record

"Bad policy as well as bad politics.” Actually, it's brilliant policy, but he may have a point about the politics of the timing of the announcement. The fact that he doesn't know that it's brilliant policy, and chooses to criticise it, shows that he is either ignorant or just another career politician who will say and do anything for advancement. Maybe he should move to RefUK: they love that kind of thing.

A word of advice, if you don't mind. The way the photos were edited makes the logos very clear, but the tread is barely discernible. The review would've gained so much value if the tread pattern was actually clear and visible. Thanks!

@PeterF01 - not clear if your beef is with 'Taiwanese' or just 'cheap' so, just to be clear, is it ok if my "decent, quality brand" manufactures in Taiwan? Like, say, DT Swiss or Ere? Or in China, like Reynolds?

@mdavidford : ) but is Strava included in the proposed social media ban law?

@mdavidford Maybe road.cc should have an article with the actual official/legal definitions? So often they are simply assumed or are american specific e.g. 'right of way' “cycle track” means a way constituting or comprised in a highway, being a way over which the public have the following, but no other, rights of way, that is to say, a right of way on pedal cycles [F3(other than pedal cycles which are motor vehicles within the meaning of [F4the Road Traffic Act 1988]] with or without a right of way on foot;

I've never commented on a review, but in this case I need to. This light is phenomenally effective for what it is designed to do. Avoid close passes. I've cycled about 20 years through central London traffic doing 3-5K miles a year and nothing beats this in terms of almost completely eliminating close passes. Makes no sense to compare it to a normal light and for the amount of product you get, it is very cheap. I have 6-7 other rear lights incl. a Garmin radar light, but I would never compare them to this. The weight also has no relevance for most commuters. Yes I would not put it on my light aero optimised road bike. Likewise I'm not even slightly annoyed that my cargo bike would not ride well with 25mm tires. Anyway, love Road.cc. Brilliant normally.

I have this, but no longer use it as the light had a habit of falling off it's magnetic mount when going over more aggressive speed bumps

I'm not sure there is much value in recycling these Bookface comments. Most people won't cycle on an A-road if there's no protected infrastructure, so if you want people to use the route of course you have to build a cycle track.

@PeterF01 I have a pair of their cheap alloy wheels on my winter bike so they see the worst of the weather and get minimal tlc and they have been perfect for the last four winters so I would be willing to give any of their products a chance if they fitted my requirements.

Looks good, but only seems to be available from their website, and they want £5 postage, which is a bit strong.
