Planet Bike Superflash Stealth Lights
Product DescriptionThe SuperFlash mode on the Planet Bike Blinky Superflash Taillight is so visible, motorists can even spot it in the daylight. Two eXtreme LEDs match up with a ?-watt Blaze LED for up-to-one-mile-away brightness while you ride. The weatherproof vertical design won?t wimp out when the clouds start spitting on your night adventure, and included bike mounts plus a clip mount provide options for commuting and training rides. Choose between the flashing and steady modes.Mtbr Bike Lights Shootout - over 50 bike lights reviewed, photographed and measured here.

from Philadelphia, PA, USA Date Reviewed: July 17, 2011 Strengths: Inexpensive, bright, different flashing modes are good Weaknesses: Forget about riding in wet conditions with this light, the seal is not sufficient; the on-off switch gave out on all three of the units I bought; excessive bumps cause the light to switch among flashing modes. Since this happened with three of them (two bought at the same time, third bought later), I'll bet the other folks who've given these lights a favorable review will have a different tune once they've used them more. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Wissahickon Duration Product Used: 2 Years Price Paid: $29.00 Purchased At: Performance Bike Similar Products Used: Don't recall brand Bike Setup: My commuter is a Schwinn hardtail fit for mostly road riding (some gravel road); just got disc brakes for it. Ride summer and winter.
