Comments about Planet Bike Blaze Superflash Bike Light Set:

The min. light power for use in commuting on the road at night is 10 Lux (recommended is 30 Lux or more) This light is a dim 6.8 Lux. I would not recommend this light for much more than off road rides or lighted greenways. Because of its dim nature cars on the road with you might not notice you among the other objects with much brighter lights.

Durable
Low Beam Is Just Enough

Cons

Best Uses

Comments about Planet Bike Blaze Superflash Bike Light Set:

The headlight has three settings. Low High and Flashing. Flashing is ideal for dusk to just dark so that traffic sees you. The low beam lighs the road perfectly and the high beam you could see going through a dark tunnel or underpass. The rear red flasher is light and provides better visibility than my old unit.
All in all the unit is well made and compact.
It's worth the few extra dollars over the next lower model for the brightness.

Comments about Planet Bike Blaze Superflash Bike Light Set:

I use this set almost every time I ride. Many drivers in Texas seem to think cyclists only ride in hot, dry weather. When we're out in cold or wet weather we become invisible. This set allows me to be very visible. The rear light can be seen for nearly a mile. I think the mounts are easy to install and are sturdy. I don't normally ride at night but think the front light would work well but maybe not for regular night riders who might want a more powerful front light. The rear light would certainly work well at night. The one thing I have difficulty with is the rear light on/off switch which is on the bottom of the light. It's a bit hard to find and push in. Other than that, I think this is an efficient, durable set.

Comments about Planet Bike Blaze Superflash Bike Light Set:

just to add a note on the durability:
Last night, I attached the rear light incorrectly so
when I went over a railroad track, the rear light
came off and landed on the pavement. The light came
apart but I gathered up the batteries and the top and
bottom halves. Everything went back together perfectly and the light still works great. Also, I noticed that the rear light has a gasket that
should keep water and dust out. I thought that
the light was a goner....but thanks to the quality
construction, it lived to light another day/night.

Comments about Planet Bike Blaze Superflash Bike Light Set:

Loved both the headlight and the tail lamp. Both can be seen from a long distance and I'm totally impressed with how far the headlight casts its beam. However, after about 5 months of use the headlight starting shutting off intermittently. The only way I can get it to work is to take the lamp house off the body and reattach it. Then it works again but only until the first bump or so...and then it goes off. Great when it works but not reliable after a bit of use.

Comments about Planet Bike Blaze Superflash Bike Light Set:

I love the visibility I get with this light set. Pedestrians always have to shield their eyes when they're walking toward me, which I take as a good thing. The light set was super-easy to install on my bike too. The only issue I have with it is that when the front light is on the first setting it creates interference with my bike computer (cateye strada). Maybe I have them too close together.
Excellent value and a great product.

Comments about Planet Bike Blaze Superflash Bike Light Set:

Yesterday, I had an accident in my garage - Driving out of the garage, there was a slight hesitation of the car and then a bump up under the front wheel. My rear rack trunk (not attached) had fallen off my bike and under my car without my being aware of it. I opened it up to see the damage. The lens/battery cap of my Planet Bike light had popped off. I put it back on and pushed the "on" button. No worries - the light turned on. I declare this product one tough little light. Way to go Planet Bike!

Comments about Planet Bike Blaze Superflash Bike Light Set:

Versatile light. Biking at night. Good visibility with rear light on strobe. Find things in a dark campsite or in your trunk. Appreciate the way you can slip on and off the bracket easily, but never comes dislodged while in use. Also like that it uses regular batteries.
