I FINALLY installed a rear light on my Bianchi Milano. Previously, I would clip my superflash on my bag or clothing.
This is the Milano, sans rear light.
This is my oh-so neglected mountain bike, Billie (yes, I keep her in the hallway), which came with a spare rear light and mount.
Mounting the light.
Voila! I now can cruise safely at night.
While my task was menial, I've been putting it off for weeks. Unfortunately, the internal hub on the Milano requires some much-needed attention from my friendly LBS mechanics that I'm unable to perform at home.
This diagram, from Sheldon Brown's website, provides only a glimpse into the complexities of an internal hub. Egads!
