Add a review (form opens in right column) reviewed by guest on November 12, 2009   Pros Small size, easy on/off, battery is easily replaced, stylish Cons Red rear light not bright enough Verdict I bought a couple and love them. I bought them a few months ago and have never lost them. It sounds to me like the guy has a personal problem with finding a good spot for them on his bike. Recommended for: Clydesdales reviewed by guest on October 7, 2009   Pros small, convenient, bright Cons TOO small! too easy to lose, strap seems flimsy Verdict i bought one, loved it, but lost it within a few weeks. i bought another, lost that one within a few weeks. i've been biking for 30+ years and don't recall ever losing a light. i've had lights break, wear out, etc. but to lose two within 2 months time? the size is very convenient, but there's a price for the convenience. i'd recommend going with a larger light, unless you can manage to hold on to this tiny light, or spend $100+ per year on replacing it. the strap didn't break (didn't have it long enough), but i can see how it could be very susceptible to snapping, as well.

Verdict This hip little light is easy to install on your handlebar or seatpost or anywhere else if you're creative. Comes in lots of colors so you can accessorize your ride in style. For safety purposes only though - not enough light here for seeing the trails at night. Recommended for: Anyone
