Review on PAGOW 20Pcs Silicone Bicycle Rubber by Ben Walls

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Not as strong as other silicone bands.

The idea behind this purchase was to use my bike lights to buy a new mountain bike. My previous bike had 31.8mm handlebars and my new bike has 35.0mm handlebars. The existing silicone straps that came with the bike lights felt stretched to the limit. I'm buying them hoping to fit the lights to larger handlebars. Upon arrival, I immediately noticed that these silicone straps are nowhere near as strong as those that typically accompany bike lights or other silicone straps I've purchased in the past. These new rubber bands actually resembled regular office rubber bands. Even with the numerous features that allow for customization, I couldn't find a position that would securely hold the light in place. They were either too tight (one seems to have started to tear) or too loose. I also felt that they would be easier to break. Another problem with this purchase is that either the description is wrong or I was sent the wrong item. The ad says the purchase is for 20 silicone bands, but I only received 10.

Pros
  • Sports and outdoor activities
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
