One such occasion that I’ve stumbled upon is that of the Lezyne Strip Drive Professional 400+. It’s in its personal proper a superb rear bike mild. It is fairly common by way of mounting, it is the brightest in the marketplace – greater than sufficient for daytime visibility – and the battery life is not horrible both. It is included in my information to the perfect bike lights in the marketplace, and I nonetheless stand by that.
It’s at present 25% off at Backcountry within the USA, and by an an identical share within the UK at Halfords. Even at full value it is fairly inexpensive, so why am I saying you should not purchase it? Properly, the Magicshine SEEMEE300 can be on provide and general I believe that is a greater purchase for most individuals. It has higher battery life, and higher aspect visibility because of a superb downward-facing LED. It has sensible options too, like brake mild performance that’ll flare it up if you decelerate. It is the perfect rear mild in the marketplace, easy as that.
One motive maybe why you would possibly choose the Lezyne Strip Drive is the mounting system. The Magicshine’s mounts are glorious, however you are wedded to both a seatpost or a saddle rail mount out of the field. With the Lezyne you could possibly simply mount it onto a chainstay, excellent for smaller frames, and for anybody operating bikepacking luggage and nonetheless needing to keep up visibility at night time.
Both method each of those lights are glorious although, particularly at a reduction.
