The Trek Commuter light I'm reviewing has a beam cutoff mode (so it's bright but doesn't blind drivers/riders) and will talk to a Flare rear light (one button on/off) but I've never thought about integrating the two. I guess when I'm on the road I usually run my bar light on / helmet off to avoid blinding folks with the rare exception of when someone in a car cuts me off, usually turning right right in front of me, and I'm the petty kind of asshole that turns on my helmet light and lets them know I'm there.
Thanks! Yes, I was wearing a helmet but - BUT - it was black so I don't think that counts?!
