You can buy some integrated commuter helmet/light setups but modularity is key don’t you think? I’ve had lights survive helmets getting written off and vice versa.
Daytime running lights is becoming more popular. The Trek light I’m reviewing has a day-flasher mode (and also the traffic friendly night mode that didn’t blast other riders/drivers in the face, which I mentioned). I’ve started using a rear light in the day with my daughter so I guess I’m at least partially bought in.
And yeah, the Kali mount is so quick/easy and also fits the helmet (open) that I ride to work in so the light and a small/bright rear just live in my pack. Never know when you’ll have a chance to take the long way home.
