Review on Stay Visible on the Road with CAT EYE Rapid X3 USB Rechargeable LED Bike Safety Light by Shane Minter

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Light but terrible mounting system

Pros: Very light. Also for day rides. A good choice for the average passenger who wants to stand out. Strange: It has two rows of lights with different buttons. To be honest, I'd rather just press a button to turn on the light. I've read that some people like it when one row stays on and the other blinks, so I think they're ok with two buttons. I would have liked it to be easier to use. One button please. The bad: It's only held on with those dull silicone rubber bands, which are annoying to use and destined to break. Worse, it ONLY ATTACHES TO THE SEAT. If you have a backpack to sit on (like most passengers) or want to attach it to your backpack, you will need to purchase TWO ADDITIONAL ACCESSORIES! So stupid. The Revain does not have an adapter or clothing/bag clip, so you must order directly from Cateye America. If I had known that, I would have bought something else. UPDATE: The clip broke the second time I used it when I hit a bump. The world is GONE! A complete waste of money.
