Review on ๐Ÿšฒ Cygolite Metro Plus 800 & Hotshot Pro 150 Bicycle Light Combo Set โ€“ Powerful USB Rechargeable Lights for Biking Safety by John Graves

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It's a great light combo, but the headlight mount is disappointing.

Cygolite makes great flashlights to start with, and it's impressive that they make all of their stuff right here in the States. I often drive at night, so good lighting is paramount. Meaning. Both the headlight and taillight are a delight. The flashing mode for daytime driving is also great. On a clear day it is clearly visible. The battery life is sufficient for both flashlights. Perhaps my only complaint relates to the included headlight mount. In many places on my handlebars (I ride a Specialized Sirrus Elite Carbon) it's too bulky to squeeze under the shifter cables - and 100% perfect placement is basically impossible when I also use my Wazoo bike computer mount "front". " would like to have mounted. While the thumbscrew is handy for quick adjustments, it also tends to loosen when going downhill on rough pavement. I'm seriously considering looking for a more traditional secondary mount compatible with this headlight. I don't like the included bracket at all.

Pros
  • handy
Cons
  • unreliable
