Review on Discontinued Genuine HeroBeam® Bike Lights Double Set - Get It Now! by Adam Cornelison

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Blindingly Good! good for me

I bought this mostly for the front lights. The rear lights and spoke lights are standard economy stuff and they work and look exactly as described. I have not used them much so I can't attest to longevity or battery life, etc. but the spoke light take standard batteries and should be no problem to keep working.The front lights are amazing. I bought this kit because we have a couple of bikes (or 8.who doesn't!) but I ended up mounting both on the black ape hangars of my cruiser and it gives an excellent custom chopper look to it. The lights work great and light up the path like car head lights. I actually feel bad sometimes when approaching people coming the other way.but not that bad. Although, a dimming option would be cool. The mounts have held up fine so far and they are easy to get the lights into and out of making it easy to take then when parked. They are just like led flashlights, including wrist straps, so if you are going of the path or something, these work great for that and they take standard batteries so they are easy to charge and easy to bring extras although I have not had them run out of juice on me. The most I go is about a leisurely 12 mile round trip and I'm only usually in the dark for the second half.so about a half hour. Incidentally, I used these to create a strobe affect in a room on Halloween and they ran for 2 1/2 hours.no problem. I have not used them off road. I think I would pick something more purpose built for a mountain bike.these are a bit heavy for that and I'm not sure the mount would hold the lights in place. They are pretty easy to adjust just by twisting so I think if bouncing around, they might move. But, I can't verify that.Overall, couldn't be happier.
