Strengths:
Small, lightweight, four light features, blinky, low, med, high.

long coil cable thing that I have to wrap around my top tube.
Similar Products Used:

Bike Setup:
old school univega fixed gear bike
Bottom Line:
great light for the price. I use it for mainly street riding and have seen the nightrider mi.newt usb in use, which is just a strong as my light, but my battery lasts longer and if my battery needs replacement, the knog ones are $40 cheaper than nightrider. as far as mountain use, get more power like the 305 or 605.
