Princeton Tec Headlamp Headband and Bracket

Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: Breaks easily

...I have had three or four of these because they were cheap, it turned out that in the long run it was cheaper to save up and buy a decent bottom bracket. Everyone of these that I bought broke in under a month, the same two faults occured each time. 1) Mud and grit easily get past the seals and wear out the bearings causing them to cease or rattle. 2) The ends of the tapered arms round off very easily, even during light XC and commuting use I have rounded them off. Steer clear and buy a decent bottom bracket, or even better get the new external type, or if your into jumping and DH get some 3piece cranks.... Read review

A lot of LED lights on the market do not do this and I think that they should be banned from sale... Read review
