How much fun is this light? Safe and fun.
I just wanted to say what a fun light this is. I saw it when it first came out, but because it wasn't a US product, I wanted to make sure that it was going to work the way they planned it. It's not an inexpensive light. Finally after 2 years, it still had great reviews, so I decided to suck it up and buy it. Why did I wait so long?
I live in Chicago and ride the lakefront a lot in the dark. It is packed with people and it is dark. I have never had so much fun riding my bike at night. I had so many comments and people saying that it was the coolest thing they have ever seen the entire ride home.
I had a guy one time follow me, and then pull next to me before he was going to exit thanking me for making his ride fun as well watching and hearing the reactions to the people on the path. It's visible to those in front of me. I'd love to see what it looks like for those approaching me, but thanks for making a great light.
It's also safe on the streets. The lazer is so bright, so not only is it fun, but it's safe. Now I can't wait to get my new bike helmet that I ordered on Kickstart that has blinking turn signal lights.
I am truly a light bike geek. I've been hit by cars twice on my bike and once as a pedestrian (and I'm really careful), so great lights certainly help.
