Its confusing to say the least I,ve set a budget of £150 and think I have found some of the latest Hope Vision 2's that push out 460 lumens reduced from £225 to £150 going to call the shop to double check the spec and offer.

I think they seem more secure mounted on the stem and in my mind mounted centrally on the bike. Doubt it make much difference where the lights are fixed. All I heard was if you get a helmet light as well as a bar mounted light it takes some getting used as it can be disorientating. Thats what the guy from Bike Shed said anyhow.

ive tried riding with both methods, however i , personly, prefer just handlebar mounted on its own.
HOWEVER, i found it much better with two on the handlebar a wide angle covering the ground, and a direct beam to where your about to be!!
