I got this bike tool for a friend of mine who is really into cycling. He loved it! Definitely impressed with the quality and the perfect size to take out on a ride.

Excellent cable to be used as secondary (you should really never lock your bike with cable only). it’s a bit longer than i thought, but that’s my fault. Sturdy and well made, if you have this around a tire for a supplemental measure, trust me, no one will bother trying to take your wheels. Good Product!

Wonderful book! Much better than the movie (although the movie is great). Books are always better. Anyway, would highly recommend.
Ventura IV Bicycle Computer
Good Deal, bright enough for the city. Nice small lights for evening riding in the city. Not bright enough for nighttime trail riding but small, cheap, removable. What more could you ask for for $10.
Great for blink lights, Okay for seeing in the dark. I bought this set to comply with bicycle light laws in San Francisco, and these lights got the job done. Both the head lamp and the tail light have a couple of settings: on and blink. I would recommend using blink, at least for the head lamp, to save the batteries.
If you’re looking for a head lamp to illuminate the road/trail, this is not the set for you. The lamp does do a halfway decent job of lighting the area in front of you, but there are better options in terms of battery life and illumination. On the other hand, if you just need a front blink light, this lamp works wonderfully. Since the lamp doesn’t give off tons of light, you won’t feel like you’re driving into a strobe light while it’s blinking. Most importantly, people will easily be able to see you with the lamp.
The rear lamp is pretty standard, and makes you plenty visible.
The braces for attaching the lights to your bike are plastic, but solid nonetheless.
To conclude, this is the perfect set of blink lights, and a mediocre head lamp for vision in the dark.
Easy to understand. I already owned a Cateye Micro which was impossible to set since the instructions were so difficult to read. I purchased the Cateye Strada and was pleasantly surprised on how easy Cateye CC-RD300W Strada Wireless Bicycle Computer was to set or to make changes to the settings. No buttons to push or hold down was a nice change from the Micro. When you finish riding one finger resets with a simple push no more two fingers holding down buttons at the same time. Cateye did, however, advertised easier to read but I don’t really see much difference there. Installation was quick and simple. I would recommend this product.
