I’ve recommended these lights to others…Here’s why.. The system was totally worth Planet Bike 3040 Superflash Tail Light and Blaze Headlight Light Set for me and I would recommend it to anyone who rides on city streets as I do in Seattle.

The mounting: I had a little bit of a hard time mounting the back light where I wanted it, but was very adjustable once mounted. The front light goes on the handlebars like a breeze.

Back Blinky: It is really bright when the High Intensity LED lights up. I made the mistake of looking at it, and was seeing spots for a while afterwards. The only drawback is that you have to be mindful as the battery is winding down, because it will still blink but not nearly as intense as it would be with a fresh battery.

The Front Light: It is dynamite in the blinking mode(haven’t used it in steady mode). I don’t know how well cars can see it, but I have seen it light up the newer retro-reflective street signs from over 200yds(600 ft) away. It is very impressive.

Happy Riding.
