what brand is BH sia.

Carry brompton lah. i feel like buying one Brommie in the future


Actually, I feel your rental shop at 12cycle makes ur shop abit "low" end feel. Maybe you should just resdesign and separate to make your shop look high end like T3 etc.

Those are dirt cheap! I'd buy a couple just to have a spare. :s13:

As for Lor Halus and that Pasir Ris stretch...those are very short stretches. You could also avoid the canal part and simply ride on the road. It will take a few minutes longer but would be safer.

Aiya, dun want to buy spare, just want to buy a OK one which can last.

20 Lux insufficient for that stretch meh?

Maybe in 6 months time, i feel i am fit enough to cycle far.. i might..

Will drop to C2C soon.

I went to Eng Hua this afternoon but it was closed, so i went slight further to Soon Hock. Soon Hock only have Raleigh and Wheeler. But Wheeler they dont really keep stock, so i cant test it. As for Raleigh, i gathered, it wasn't a lasting. How aboout Wheeler, is it good?

Please note that the light that Sambuca78 is planning to buy is 20 lux. One is 'lux', while the others are stating 'lumens'. I don't know how is one related to the other.

Wheeler is more of a budget brand.

You should probably go for more established bike brands if you intend to pursue this hobby. Buying budget bikes may cause buyer's remorse and make you give up on the hobby eventually.

I currently run two battery light systems and one dyno hub light system.

The DesignShine is somewhere on the order of 1300 lumens while the Ixon IQ Premium is 80 lux; both of them on the highest settings.

20 lux is not enough for that particular stretch of canal path but it is a very short distance. If the poster is worried, then, just ride around it.
