Planet BikeSuperflash Tail Light(Return to Product Page)

Light mounts easily and the strobe is highly visible. I use it for every ride especially early-morning rides. Works great I would recommend this for any rider.

I would have given the older versions of this light a 5 star rating even though they were subject to leaking in the rain and the switch would corrode. Planet Bike has always stood behind these 100% and have replaced the few I sent them. However, the newer version of this light is much improved and the switch is redesigned and more corrosion resistant...now it's a 6 star. I like the fact that it is battery operated and NOT rechargable...just more dependable. They are cheap enough where I always use two...one on my helmet and one of each of my 3 bikes. They just work great.

Use it for most club rides in Westchester, NY and is nice and bright with various settings and battery seems to last.

This is an excellent, potentially life saving product.

When I ride on the road, in the fog, at night, I'm no longer invisible.

Needles to say, it's also very good in daylight because it really is that bright.

This is an inexpensive, simple, and easy to mount product that will increase your visibility to those inattentive people driving tons of bicycle crushing metal.

Spend the money and feel a lot more confident on your rides.

I've been using PB Superflashes for years, while commuting and recreational rides. For the money, it is hard to beat. There are brighter taillights but they cost more and their batteries don't last as long. The main drawback to the SF is that the on-off switch can be fickle to operate. Sometimes it's hard to activate or turn off, or it cycles through more than one mode. On the plus side, the SF lasts a very long time before the batteries need to be recharged or replaced - much longer than other lights I have used.

This is a very easy to see, easy to use tail light that anyone behind you can see! The only thing that is a drag is that it bounced off my saddlebag and into oblivion. I'd say the clip for attaching the light to a backpack, jersey, or saddlebag in my case, could be a little more sturdy, but this type of thing happens to pretty much any light when one uses the clip. Since mine is gone I hope somebody found it and is using it now.

I wouldnt go past my driveway without proper lighting (F&B), and this light throws a nice pattern of flash that is visible for quite a distance.

With cell phones and GPS, cars and trucks need to see you as far in advance as possible !

I enjoyed the use of this tail light for about a year. Last week, as I was riding over a bridge, I heard a sound. I stopped and discovered that the front half of the light separated from the rear, which was still attached to my under-seat bag. Apparently the press-clip attachment of the halves failed, sending the tail light over the side of the bridge. So now, I'll be shopping for a replacement and with a more critical eye on construction.

The tail light is bright and highly visible from a distance. I feel much safer riding the roads with this high visibility tail light. It is very important to be as visible as possible riding in busy traffic.

Have this same tail light on my road bike, added one to my trail bike. With all the texting and phone usage happening, I want to be seen !

This light is bright and the batteries last a very long time. I ride 3 days a week and always use it since I ride on hy 12 so the traffic is fast.

Replaced a couple that were stolen, I keep buying 'em so they must be good.

I use this light on my bike home from a late night class (or when the weather is icky and I want to make sure I'm visable). It comes with a number of options for clipping to the bike, different types of bags, or I've even clipped it to the back of my pants in a pinch.

It's got different options for flashing or solid light, which is nice. Very convenient that it takes a normal type of battery that I usually have at home, so I don't have to go in search of some special battery when it starts getting dimmer.

I use this on my road bike for extended rides. It lasts so much longer then rechargeable lights. it gives a good visual to warn cars . The price was better than most for what you get

Bought this light several years ago, it always worked well, never took more than one set of batteries, however today it just disappeared off of the back of my bike. No someone did not steal it, the flashing mechanism (Red lens and the rest of the works, including batteries) just fell of the base and was lost somewhere on my ride. It simply fell apart I guess. If the clip had given up and I would have lost the whole thing, that would have been one thing. But to have the thing fall apart like it did was frustrating. Now I have the white plastic base and no light. There is some kind of design flaw that allowed this to happen.

Why would anyone pay more? This is a great taillight at a disposable price.

It can be viewed at one mile, very bright light, super cool..

I have this same tail light on 2 of my bikes because they radiate in the dark. Flashing strobe with a solid mount.

Light is easy to see from a long distance. Brackets work well on my recumbent bike. Highly recommend.

Excellent for recumbent bike visibility.
