Nice! Just ordered the BTs for my FX3.

Did you need to buy the adapter thing?
Did you install yourself or did the shop do it?

I got the Serfas RX-921 a few years ago and just installed it on the new bike. It was a good balance between reviews and price. It’s way better than the stock saddle but I don’t swear by it.

The Flare R is $60 for 65 lumens, I got the CygoLite HotShot Pro 150 for $38 for 150 lumens. I’ve heard the Light & Motion lights are good too.
