Unfortunately my clear light was defective, but easy enough to resolve via customer support.
Red light works fine, bright and appears well made
Thanks for sharing Ronrico. I am glad the team was able to sort out your issue with your front light. -Ryan Zagata
Good quality product. Very useful during evening commute. My only regret is that it doesn’t provide much light into the road ahead, but overall, works. Good product. Would recommend
Thanks for sharing Amaka. There are two types of bikes lights - ones for lighting the road ahead of you (think headlights on a car) and ones for being seen by others (think running and parking lights when your car is on) - these lights, are designed to make you very visible to drivers. While the front light does provide some light in front of you, there are also very specific lights designed to light the road ahead of you. -Ryan Zagata
I bought this set, and I was really excited about them! They are very bright, and I love that I can charge them with the USB easily. Unfortunately, the red light will randomly turn off in the middle of my ride. I'll turn it back on and within a minute, it shuts off again even after a full charge.
Thanks so much for sharing. It sounds like you may have received a faulty light but I do see the team has already rectified this with you separately. Thanks again. -Ryan Zagata
I bought this set for a new bike, but at the same time was shopping around for lights for my kid's school commuter bike. Now I wish the lights on my other bikes would "accidentally" fall off so I can replace them all with this set. For starters, they're crazy-bright, and probably the brightest I've ever seen at this price point. All of the rechargeable (USB) lights with at least 9 hours of run time started at $40 at the big box stores (and, to my uncalibrated eyeballs, the Uptown lights were brighter than everything in the $40-60 price range). Also important, the clip and mounting straps are rock solid. The clip has a rubber coating that makes it non-slip, so I feel confident using the mounting tabs on my backpack without worrying about a pothole sending the light flying. If you are mounting it to a tube or bike rack, the silicone straps are beefy and provide a tight grip.
Pros: • brightness • price point • construction and manufacturing • waterproof • adjustable mounting system • run-time of 9 hours in blinking mode
Cons: • If you are mounting the lights to a bike rack with very skinny tubing, the straps will hold the light in place but it might jostle around if you're riding rough roads. You're not going to lose the light, but you might have to re-aim it from time to time. I'm thinking maybe some plumber's tape on the rack might give the mounting straps a little more bite. Also, it would be nice if more lights had a permanent attachment option, but everything seems to be clips and straps these days.
Thanks so much for sharing. These lights are proving to be a customer favorite. -Ryan Zagata
