5.0 out of 5 stars Attaches directly to rack, July 23, 2009
This review is from: Cateye TL-LD500-R LED Bicycle Tail and Safety Light (Red) (Sports)
I really wanted a tail light that I wouldn't have to screw around with taking it on and off the bike when I left the bike locked up somewhere. This was the only light (didn't buy it through amazon, but same model number on the box - TL-LD500-R) I could find, having visited 3 different bike shops, that would attach directly to the back of my bike rack - in my case a Topeak Explorer bike rack.

I found other lights that had a quick release system that would let you attach the light to the bike rack, but this was the only one that attached directly an wasn't easy to take off. Assuming your rack has a (for lack of a better term) hangy down thing to attach something to in the back, you just take the screw, screw it through the hole, and into the body of this tail light.

The Cateye TL-LD500-R LED Bicycle Tail and Safety Light is an excellent attention getter for night riders. It comes with all of the attachment hardware neccesary to afix the lamp to the rear of your seat post. It also comes with a clip for your jacket or backpack. It's cheap and its three led's are quite an attention getter. Too, it uses AAA batteries available anywhere.

When riding at night, you need to be sure that you're seen. Although there are brighter tail lights out there (like the Planet Bike Superflash), this light has a long battery life and is bright enough to have you be seen in all but the worst conditions.
