  • The two lights come wirelessly paired, allowing the front LED to wirelessly turn on or off the taillight at the same time

    That's a cool feature. Not sure if I want to pay an extra $100 over just a standard set of lights though.

    • They are way better than a $20 set of lights, well built and actually bright enough to see with (rather than just bee seen)

        The Xanes brand on Banggood are just as good as any other locally bought bike light and in many cases identical to a branded set.

      I wonder about the battery drain. Seems unlikely to be worth it

      Frankly its maybe $30 extra. You need to compare to high lumens lights.

      • good point on the battery drain. I have a see-sense which pairs to the phone and it's pretty decent on low-medium settings flashing. About 25% drain for a whole day ride. But if the non-smart model is $30, i'd get that.

        Smart feature sounds cool but it's pretty pointless since it takes only 3 seconds to turn it on…Also you'll most likely have to replace 1 of light when it dies or get lost and may want to go for another brand

        I went from lights with swappable batteries to lights with USB charging and built-in batteries. Sometimes just before a ride I find out the batteries have gone flat. I miss being able to instantly swap to a fully-charged battery.

        • I don't.
          Constantly buying batteries ends up being more expensive than a decent usb light, not to mention you have to always have them around. Too much dicking around.

          Battery powered are generally not as bright as USB ones.
          I'd rather look at the indicator from time to time and charge it with my bike computer.

          • @AFAR85:

            Constantly buying batteries ends up being more expensive than a decent usb light, not to mention you have to always have them around. Too much dicking around.

            My previous front light used a rechargable 18650, rear light a NiMH AA. It just sits in or next to the charger at home where my bike is. It's less effort than putting on a shoe really.

            More than once I've ridden to work in the daytime just fine, but when it's time to leave I realize the battery in my light has gone flat.

            And quite a number of times I suddenly feel like going for a ride but the charge in my light is low so I have to plug it in and wait for it to charge.

            Battery powered are generally not as bright as USB ones.

            On the contrary; my Nitecore HC30 is far brighter than my Cycliq Fly12. I rarely ever run either one of them at full brightness though.

            I'd rather look at the indicator from time to time and charge it with my bike computer.

            You charge your light with your bike computer?

            I can see how lights with built-in batteries can work great for some people, especially those who follow a predictable schedule. Not everyone has that sort of usage pattern though.

        • +1

          There are so many solutions to this:

          • charge the lights after every ride;
          • bring a spare light (you can even get a light that has a setting for red or white);
          • ride with two rear lights so if one runs out of battery, you've got the second one still on.
  • Is this charged with an inbuilt male USB type A connector?

  • $120 for a set of light and $10 delivery is too much.

    I think it may worth $60 if it doesn't what is say

    • So this page says the delivery should be free for orders above $99.

      Also, if the delivery fee of $9.99 is unavoidable, this deal should be "$129.98 Delivered" instead of $119.99. As per the discussion here, everyone's might be getting a wrong idea about the final price.

      Is it cheaper than other stores?

        Just because it's lower than either the recommended retail price or any other store it doesn't make it worth it. If it was over priced and not useful in the first place then it's possible that no amount of discount will make it worth it.

        • +9

          This is exactly the reason you as an individual determine an item's value. What is of no value to you does not necessarily mean it is of no value to the next person. Value is subjective to every individual.

          There's a difference between "worth it" and "bargain". Worth is subjective. To me, $1950 for an iPhone is absolutely not worth it. But to some people it's a bargain as they don't often go on sale so early. Should I just neg any iPhone deal I come across because I can buy a phone for half the price that does mostly the same thing?

          Maybe have a look at the OzB voting guidelines.

    • I'm not a cyclist but afaik $90+ is reasonable for a non smart version of this though

      I would rather spend $90 than $120 but i get why others would buy it

      • I recently did a fair bit of research and watched and read a lot of reviews on bike lights. Basically you generally get what you pay for. Started with a cheap Repco set from Big W a year or so ago for $25, but it was virtually useless. Didn't have the coin to throw down for the $200+ lights you can get, which are no doubt awesome but was happy to invest around $100 mark for something decent. Settled on the Ravemen CR 1000 lumen light. Can now confidently ride at night and well worth the $$. You have to spend around the $100+ mark if you want something usable and decent, for sure.

      • The ALDI bike light is surprisingly good. It's on the chunkier side and has a flashlight form factor but it is cheap and very bright.

  • Finally an app for my bike lights!

    • Yep, what a time to be alive.

  • You'll also be waiting a long time -they're shipped by The Hut from the UK

    • Almighty Jabba!

    • They also lost my Topeak carrier. Did get a full refund quickly.

    I was given a Lezyne front 500 for Xmas a few years ago. It's easily the best everyday bike light I've owned in 40 years of riding; super bright, fast charging, superb build quality. I like it so much I bought another Lezyne rear light to match. Highly recommend if you need a set for commuting etc.

  • Sometimes it gets dark as I'm riding and I don't really want to stop just to turn the rear light on. This seems to solve that problem for $30 more than the standard lights. Seems worth it if you're in the market and ride through dusk. Also, Lezyne are the only lights that have lasted for me. The rear doesn't have as much battery life any more after about 4 years, but the front still keeps a good charge.

    i did most of my cycling at night, after doing some shopping around, found most of these "bike brand" lights were expensive for the specs. in the end, settled on the $92 (currently $115) olight rn-1500 since i already had an olight torch and was impressed. i ran it at 1200 lumens most of the time for night rides and only charged it every 2-3 days.

    i considered getting an olight for my rear light as well, but settled on PBK's own branded 20 lumen light as it suited my mounting requirements a lot better and came with a variety of mounts. sadly, they don't sell those any more.

    • 1200lm will blind riders/drivers that's facing you… should turn it down a notch to 600-800lm at the most.

      Unless you're riding in the middle of nowhere and it's one way

      • i wasn't a (profanity) about it — i did have it aimed down rather than parallel to the ground. and going uphill against traffic, i would dim it down to the lowest setting.

        however, riding down a certain dimly-lit residential road on friday/saturday nights when the crackheads are stumbling all over the place, it's nice to have those extra lumens to light them up

  • I have used Lezyne 300xl for 5ish years now for my everyday light. The only issue with it is that there is no battery lever indicator. Hopefully this new model does.

    When I add these to my cart and checkout it shows as A$103.19 delivered (free) using the code AU14 (says that code "must end midnight" on their home page, when ever that midnight is).

    I have bought "LEZYNE SUPER DRIVE 1600XXL/KTV PRO SMART LIGHT SET", the one model up from what's listed here, from pro bike kit in the past, and works great. I have had other Lezyne lights in the past and all have been good. It's handy to turn on the front light and the rear turns on with it, I often turn off/on the lights depending on where I'm riding (roads vs forest trails) to conserve battery life, but they do last a long time. The iPhone App for these lights is crap though, does the job to setup, but you wouldn't want to use it everyday. Every time you open ore resume the app it plays this annoying long intro video.

    I've bought some other stuff from pro bike kit today, that was on special/cheaper than other stores.
