Which set is that? I have some cheap Chineseum stuff. It's supposed to be 1200 lumens, but I'm guessing it's 800-900 at best. However it does have a 5000mah or 5500mah battery, so lasts a long time and it has a USB Type-A port, so I can charge my phone, Garmin Edge 130, or run the GoPro off of it. The housing is aluminum, and it has a digital readout that counts down by 10 for battery remaining (99%, 90%, 80%, etc), but where the handlebar mount connects to the bottom of the housing is total junk and broke within the first few weeks of usage. It's be epoxied in place, so no longer adjustable.I've been bike riding again at night and my old light just wasn't cutting it anymore. First of all, it wouldn't stay in place anymore and secondly it seemed to have lost power.
Kind of excited to try this out tonight.

Probably illegal to ride against traffic there because it is in most states.Here is the link:
I don't think it's anything fancy. It didn't list the lumens (usually means it's nothing to brag about), but I think it's much lower than 1,200. But from the testimonial videos, it looked much brighter than what I had.
The battery is smaller, like 2,000mAh, but should be good for 5 one-hour bike rides before it needs charging. The rear light should be roughly twice that. That battery readout is pretty low tech, supposedly just flashes red when it gets low.
But I bought it because it was cheap ($19) and had decent reviews. Most of the riding I do is somewhat lit, but there are quite a few sections where there aren't any street lights. This is also so that people can see me as well. There's a lot of old farts in Florida, so I want to make sure these people can see me riding down the road.
I had a dude yell at me for riding in the bike lane going against the flow of traffic. The lanes are marked with arrows going with the flow of traffic. I like to see people coming so that I can tell if they're drifting towards me or not.
Fuck I just had to replace 2 of my 3….never once before that
I have a 2015 Trek 7.3 FX and have zero complaints with it.I pulled the trigger on a new bike. My older Schwinn from Walmart was acting up. I might have been able to get the bike serviced, but the service likely would have been almost as much as I paid for the bike. The new Trek (Verve 2) was a little more than I really wanted to spend, but I've been casually biking almost 5 days a week, so I thought it was worth it. I haven't really ridden it yet besides the little test spin at the shop.

Those brakes might give you trouble if they say “power” on the side.I pulled the trigger on a new bike. My older Schwinn from Walmart was acting up.

You should treat yourself to a new fx carbon. They’re rad.I have a 2015 Trek 7.3 FX and have zero complaints with it.
Like wear/tear or mechanical issues? Leaky? I know nothing of hydraulic disc brakes, so I may have to study up on them.Those brakes might give you trouble if they say “power” on the side.
