    Doesn't look like it is in the most corner friendly position.

    Miniaturise it so it sits on the on/under the LH chainstay and give it a bar mounted button and that'll sell in a lotta places though

    Arent our lights triggered by high mounted sensors on traffic lights ?
    I've seen that serco crowd put new ball type ones in and I'm pretty sure a cyclist could trigger one.

    I know there's at least a few lights in the city centre which are activated by bicycles.

    Alot of lights use induction coils to trigger the lights.

    Maybe so ,but most lights I'm at I'll make sure I triggered the unit. The light will come on inside.

    I don't think the older black box type are as precise as the newer round ones.
