Review on 7-LED Vintage Retro Bicycle Front Light Lamp for Fixie Bikes with Bracket by Talapon Blackburn

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Bright, feels solid

I bought this to replace the stock headlight on my Babboe City E - the original headlight had 3 low power LEDs and the plastic bracket broke with any attempt to glue it on. The globe lantern here is much sturdier, with metal brackets and a metal body, and is about twice as bright as the old lantern. My only concern is that the hinge front doesn't seem to snap in very firmly, despite being secured with a screw, and that it can soak up water when it rains. Installation was easy though as I already had a similar mounting point and am a big fan of fixed lights - setting it up takes a lot of the stress out of it, especially when riding with kids. I have things I need to remember when I walk out the door like keys, wallet, helmets, phone, kids meals, backpacks, locks etc, it's superfluous not to remember the light.
