Inspector Gadget Aircraft Landing Lights for your Bicycle

The description says it all!  The exclusively hand-crafted unique mounting system, together with extensive AA battery powered LED lighting will have you lighting up the road like a landing strip and never again overlook that pothole in the dark as well as ensuring motorists will see you coming from miles away.  Handlebar mounted dip switch included!  This lighting system is ONLY available through Lara Latte Cycles – inspection possible on any of our rides.  Price on application. Net weight 25Kg.

Since the advent of the Ayup lighting system, these beauties are only made to order, but you can still view a vintage exemplar with one of the riders of our peloton!
