| Duration Product Used: | 3 months |
| Price Paid: | $480 |
| Purchased At: | www.blazingsaddlescycles.co.uk |
| Strengths: | Incredibly bright, light and compact. Handlebar mount is secure and easy to use. |
| Weaknesses: | The charging time is quite long, but you just need to be organised and set it to charge overnight. The status light on the unit lets you know when the battery's running low, so there's no risk of being caught out. |
| Similar Products Tried: | I went from using a rubbish £20 light to this... |
| Bike Setup: | Saracen Ariel 2 2008 (Marz XC600 TST2, RS Monarch 3.1, XT/LX bits, etc.) |
| Bottom Line: | This is the brightest bike light that I've ever seen. On my commute home, I get loads of questions from other riders. They're usually a bit put off by the price, but what price can you put on being so visible? It's not a cheap light, but it's the best £260 I've spent recently. Most of my commute is street-lit, so I can use the lower brightness settings to save a bit of battery life. Once I'm out of the city and on the back roads, I switch to the Maxx setting and the spread of light is as good (if not better) than the dipped beam headlights on my car. I haven't tried any singletrack in the dark yet, but I've got no doubts that this light will be more than up to the job. |
