Night Lights XC
Looking to join a few night rides. Can you recommend What i need to get started? Price? How many lights? Tips on where to buy? or if anybody looking to update and sell second hand.....Your help would be appreciate. Thanks.
My New Light :D
Home made light that I made. The cost is shown on the Jaycar receipt.
Welding was done by my dad using spare bits of metal we could find. Mild steel is awesome to bend and shape.
The spring comes out of my old broken derailleur.
I haven't tested them yet to see if the one light is enough (300 lumen)

The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.

easy pace with stops about 25 to 30 km have some fun on easy shore stuff, cover a few different areas
Does anyone have a DT Swiss 240s rear hub?
If so, what lubricant do you use for the ratchets? DT Swiss say that normal grease is too thick and that you should use their ‘special grease’ which I understand costs more than $60 for a 20g tub (and is not readily available). Are you aware of any alternatives? Some posts on the web suggest that this grease is actually Dow Corning Molykote TP 42 which I have found can be purchased in Australia, however only in 1kg tins. Seems a waste to buy so much as it would last one bike about 1,000 years. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
