I have both Infini lava and this D-light... but rear light though. Both are compact, bbright, usb-rechargeable...

I have the infini lava on my helmet as backup light.

For front lights, while it seems bright, it is only technically 80 lumens. Maybe good enough to let others see you, but not bright enough to illuminate the whole path in front of you.

My humble recommendation is at least 200 lumens spread over a wide angle.

Any recommendations for mini pump?

Any recommendations for mini pump?

Why would you need a mini pump? You seriously will fix flat tyres on a folding bike at the roadside? Even if you plan to do that, why not consider CO2?

If you plan to inflate your tyre, why not use a floor pump?

Any recommendations for mini pump?

I like my Lezyne and they can go up to 120 psi or more depending on model. The only issue with mini pumps is that you don't know the end pressure once you are done. You may need to get a separate pressure gauge.

most likely will get side swipe if go double yellow

you go abit out not till the centre of lane they wont disturb uou

that's no way you can pump up to 120 with mini pump unless you are popeye the sailor man.
