Duration Product Used:
Less than 1 month
Price Paid:
$300.00
Purchased At:
jenson usa
Strengths:
Really bright white light. You can see everything for a while but not for long!
Weaknesses:
Poor battery and/or cable construction.
Bike Setup:
Specialized R.H. disk with crappy shimano components.
Bottom Line:
I've had this light less than a moth and used it twice. The battery has malfunctioned and is unable to charge. This will be my second time sending it back to be repared/repaced. The first one I got was shipped to me with a broken battery. Stay away from this product or just stay away from nightrider stuff in general.

Im giving it 5 chillis all around for price and performance!
