Review on 🚴 Enhanced Visibility: Planet Bike Superflash Stealth Bike Tail Light by Adan Hudson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Outstanding light. Bright enough.

Great light. Bright enough. I know there is ONE watt unit, but after seeing both and even riding behind another rider with the watt unit flashing in front of me, I was wondering if I should make the riders aware of my presence or something would. annoy them by blinding them. A blink of a watt backwards seemed too much to them. So 0.5W works for me. The device looks well made and is easy to use. I wish there was a little more flexibility in mounting it on your bike. The larger diameter mount wants to attach to the seatpost, which won't work if you have a small bag under the saddle. It's always goofy to attach it to the bag loop because it rattles off-center while riding. The smaller diameter mount is pretty tight - my rear frame stays wider as long as they don't taper to more than halfway down the hub. So the device is mounted low, on one side of my bike. It works, but I know other people have suggested more variable diameter mounting solutions (e.g. timing belts). This would make it a totally perfect product. However, I am happy with it and would buy another one for my other bike and get it working. I am sure you will find a place where you can put it up well. Nice to be seen.

Pros
  • Headlights and Reflectors
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
