Review on 🚲 Enhanced Visibility: CatEye Reflex Rear Safety Light TL-LD560-R for Bicycles by Paul Letho

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Doesn't like bumps. I do not recommend.

I really like this flashlight as it looks and works great on the stand. When it's not on, it still acts as a very good reflector. Lots of light patterns to cover a wide range of preferences. What's keeping me from giving five stars is this: It turns off if pressed too hard. I learned this the hard way. I commute to work in the city every day. This means that roadworks and potholes are the order of the day. A certain section of my journey is very bumpy and when I check the lights, they mostly turn off after completing that section. This is a problem for me because it's still dark when I drive to work. Now that I'm aware of this, I stop at a red light while following a bumpy section and check the light before heading down a large hill. *Update: I'm tired of constantly checking and pausing for this light to turn it back on. , so I bought clip-on flashlights to put on a helmet and bag. I don't even bother turning it on anymore; Now it's just an expensive reflector.

Pros
  • Durable finish
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
