I recently built up a Argon NItrogen and am looking for some help with finding a front and rear light with my setup. I have a enve stem with the enve computer mount and am running specialized aero bars. My old light was made for round bars and could possibly be setup on the drops but I would prefer a different setup. And my rear light is pretty tight on the argon seatpost and popped off once. I run either a wahoo or pioneer computer. Anyone else with a similar setup?

Are you looking for daytime safety lights or nighttime navigating lights.
For daytime use, there's nothing better than Bontrager Flare's.
They have some interesting integrated mounts /adaptors on their website.
For simple bar mountain headlights for night use, I always use Light N. Motion. However, if you try to mount via gopro mount to the under side of a garmin mount, the unit will be upside down and as such I'd recommend the Urban series as opposed to the Taz (beam pattern would be upside down).

I have Serfas thunderbolts 2.0 front and back. Easy to mount on aero bars and seat stays. I also have a Bontrager R-flare in back. Motorists many times thank me for being so visible.

Exposure TraceR using the saddle rail mount - super sleek and super bright.
Front light is a Cateye Rapid X3 fixed to the fork leg under the brake - a bright daytime light with some very good flashing mode.
Aforementioned Lezyne strip drive is a great option to fix to an aero seat post too

Where is the best/easiest place to mount a front light on a tri bike so it's seen. The flare combo gets good reviews

I mount the headlight on underside of extension and I have a Speed Concept so the make a flare mount that fits. They also sell a clip so u can clip to pocket or shorts when out running
I've been using Dinotte lights and its plenty bright.
