[QUOTE="rbentnail, post: 1420167, member: 13598"] With the ones I used, your concerns are unwarranted. I used Xtra-Vision bulbs previously. Note I ride mainly rural, even for commuting. My observations of the F2: - the cutoff is quite distinct, exactly the same as halogens; - the LED light pattern is a bit more forward than halogens, not as much out to the side; - Xtra-Vision halogen bulbs have slightly better pattern coverage on low beam. The LEDs are far superior on high beam; - I feel I need to split the difference with the LED same as I had to do with the Xtra-Visions. Low beam needs to come up a little and high beam down a little; - if it weren't such a giant PITA I'd try rotating them a little to see about better side lighting. The head lights on my Gen2 have a horizontal adjustment, I might mess with that some. The halogens were great out to about 45 degrees, the LED maybe 35. As it is I'll probably let it be for now.
