    Favorite Trail:Back roads of Greenwich, CT
    Duration Product Used:1 Year
    Price Paid: $10.00
    Purchased At:Stamford Cycle Center
    Strengths:Bright. Light weight. Easy to replace 2 AAA batteries last a long time. Secure mount. Light will not fall off the bike if you hit a bump.
    Weaknesses:None.
    Similar Products Used:A Trek light that fell off every time I hit a bump.
    Bike Setup:Trek Madone
    Bottom Line:I use this light on every ride, most of which are in the early morning darkness or just after sunrise. But even when it is light enough for you to see, this light will help you to be seen from behind on dark, tree shaded roads. It's a cheap investment in your safety. Just buy it and use it.
