from Melbourne, Australia Date Reviewed: May 11, 2009 | | Favorite Trail: | Alice Springs, Australia | | Duration Product Used: | Less than 1 month | | Price Paid: |
$45.00 | | Purchased At: | BicycleSupply.net | | Strengths: | Blinker is awesome - may cause seizures in oncoming drivers. Attachment is fine - dont know what criticism is about (I have 31.8' palm-comfort bars). Relatively light. Relatively cheap. | | Weaknesses: | The screw mechanism to open (for battery change) rotates only 5 degrees to unlock. Feels solid now but over time may become loose and unscrew if going over a bump. Wouldn't use alone for night vision. | | Similar Products Used: | old cateye halogen - a battery drain. | | Bike Setup: | Giant TCR Advanced, Ultegra SL groupo | | Bottom Line: | Bought the Blaze 1 watt version together with Superflash tail light, good value. Bought mainly so that cars dont knock me off. Seems to be working well, even during the day. Time will tell regarding durability (opening mechanism above). | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$39.00 | | Purchased At: | Riders | | Strengths: | Great Battery life, bright flash with some side visability | | Weaknesses: | light marginal by itself but would be great as a aimed second light to fill in the space between the front tire and the beam of a stronger primary light (pehaps a good match with the Planet Bike Blaze 1 Watt or the forthcoming 2 Watt Blaze. | | Similar Products Used: | Cateye, Smart | | Bike Setup: | Giant OCR 3 with 7700 series Dura Ace Triple groupset, Selle italia SLR Seat, velocity rims and Continental GP4000s tires | | Bottom Line: | Good back up or secondary commuting light | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
