I didn't know that there are different versions. I do have a switch, sort of a rotating bezel with off/sense/on. It is not meant for upside down use, i.e. it mounts to the fork crown.

Maintaining car insurance while car-free?

I recently gave up my car. Actually, it was totaled out by the insurance company after I was rear-ended at a stop light. It was 18 years old, so didn't have a lot of value left, but I did have...
