Good product
Good product, several power modes and good battery life. Ideally, while charging it could be used. Or that it would work plugged into an outlet.
Pros & Cons

To be recommended
I bought this model 2 years ago and use it regularly. I prefer it to the 1600 or 1800 price/weight: power ratio. Bought a 2nd lamp for PBP 2023. I use it with the remote control. My only complaint is that the Race mode can't be set.

Good choice for the price, especially in BlackFriday Sale
Thanks to the great light intensity, you also feel quite safe on the road in the dark.

Good compact lamp
Good lamp. At 1300 lumens, it's like driving in daylight! My only regret is that 1 press = dim. In an emergency (lack of light in a descent, for example), I'd have preferred the sequence of settings to be reversed.

The lamp is powerful enough and has many features. Use it daily to bike to work on poorly, to unlit roads. Also sits securely and is also easy and quick to remove. Need to charge the lamp about once a week. Am actually very satisfied with it. Only minus point is that it interferes with my speedometer when the light is mounted too close to it.

Pros & Cons
4 / 5
Great lamp, but unsuitable in traffic.
More than enough light on the highest setting, but even if you aim the beam right in front of your front wheel, you can see oncoming traffic squinting their eyes. If you aim the beam where you want it, about 15 feet in front of your bike, you are a danger to all your oncoming traffic. The attachment with the rubber is solid though, provided you get it well behind the hook and that's not really easy, especially with gloves on.

Good lamp for winter
Lots of light apply to cycling in the dark months. Charging via micro usb, wonder how long that will last.

Bright , cheap, well made, No Stvo
Bright , cheap and well made. I am almost exclusively on dirt roads, for which the lamp is well suited. For use in pure road traffic rather critical to see.

Lots of light, long battery life and easy to attach
Very satisfied with this lamp, easy to attach to the handlebars and easy to rotate in position, brightness is impressive, that's what it's all about. I could easily ride for three hours in the dark. Personally, I would have preferred a separate mounting mount, but since it is so easy to attach, no big problem for me. It's a pity that you can't charge the lamp while in use with a power bank.

Indispensable for seeing the road at night, when there are no lights.

90% satisfied
Fast delivery, very solid item. Tested battery life: over 33 hours of biking with flashing function, before reporting 10% residual. LIevemente heavy. Unfortunately annoyed with the reception of the pedometer signal from my Sigma Rox 9.1, which works on and off. However satisfied

Prima lamp maar lastig te bevestigen
Hij voldoet zeker aan mijn verwachting, maar de bevestiging op het stuur is t.o.v. mijn vorige Lezyne niet gebruiksvriendelijk.

Good quality product, top lighting
I'm glad I bought it, it lets you ride at night with good visibility. Easy to use, and good quality. I recommend it! Already tested it for 200 km at night in the middle of the forest, and it's top-notch. I have no regrets.

Best lumen euro ratio.
Been using the thing for 2 years. In the dunes it is fine cycling in the dark but still be careful at high speed, it is just not the same as cycling in daylight.

Super headlight with challenging attachment
Beam is huge and adjustable. Great device. Mounting on the handlebar could be better. Is on last hole and you really have to pry the rubber strip behind the hook. It still feels like it could fall off the handlebars while cycling.

Worth the money
Well made, and if you times a little faster down the hill, makes the thing sufficiently bright
Pros & Cons
4 / 5
A lot of bang (lumen) for the buck!
Replaced an 1100XL with this. Use it in all weather, all year round for commuting. Provides good light, a proper light pattern. A good detail is that if you get a battery warning while you are out, just lower the brightness and drive on. Another good thing is that the mount is easy to remove and replace with a more robust mount. But considering the price, the original mount should be better.

I have used it only a few times, but it illuminates enough to go pedaling at a prudent speed. Perfect for foggy days.

Donders veel licht!
Geeft zeer goed licht, kan je prima mee in het bos fietsen, maar op lagere standen ook op de weg ( zonder dat je iedereen verblind)
Pros & Cons
4 / 5
Robust and bright lamp with really justifiable shortcomings!
The lamp arrives in a neat and thoughtful package, looks at first and second glance high-quality and stable. The luminous efficiency is especially in the brightest level insane, but also 50% are quite sufficient at night. I use it in wind and weather as a helmet lamp and even then their weight does not bother. The only pity is that you can not see (maybe because it is just too bright) whether it is approved for road traffic, but I think not. A charging indicator in bar form would also have been nice. Overall, for the price a really top product, I will definitely recommend!

Great light with fixed mount
Very bright bicycle lamp with powerful battery in sturdy metal housing. Unfortunately, the bracket is not removable, which makes mounting difficult.

Ideal lighting for long outings in winter.
Used on city/country/city outings of over 100km, with night-time return, this light is equivalent to a car headlight. The beam is wide and the range very long. Be careful to select the right mode to avoid dazzling oncoming traffic. Full beam / low beam mode perfect.

Just right
I already had the 500 version but an extra (backup) lamp for on the road is always good plus this one comes in handy on extra dark roads.

Somewhat awkward mounting, but excellent battery life and huge amount of light.
Excellent lamp, amount of light comparable to the headlight of a car. Only disconnecting and reattaching to handlebars to charge the lamp is a bit difficult.

Master price-performance ratio
I use it to commute from home to the office, through the forest, over 30km, and it lasts more than an hour in full mode without any problem. I usually arrive home with the battery at 30%-40%.

Good light, poor attachment
The light is really bright, but also so well focused that you can adjust it so that oncoming traffic is not blinded. The attachment with rubber band is a mess. Since you just have to invest again in accessories.

Good product
This lamp is really efficient, and mode 2 allows you to stay in the economy or full positions, which is really handy for saving battery power. Autonomy is really good, especially if you use the full position all the time. It's a compact, well-designed product, and I'd recommend it for road and mountain bikers. Installation is quick and easy. On the other hand, the full charge time is fairly long, which isn't a problem if you're well organized. In 2-position mode, it lacks a standby position (off) with rapid ignition to increase autonomy.
Pros & Cons
4 / 5
Good lots of light
Mounted on the road bike and don't have to have the strongest light by a long shot. Only on a bike path in a forest where it is very dark, I put it on its brightest and then you see more than enough. If I had to mention 1 minus point is that you go to the next position by means of a button. But you cannot go back to the previous position, so you have to click through.

Good light, poor bracket
The key bit, the light, does what it should do. The bracket is attached to the light which is a bit of a pain when you want to charge it. Also, some of the programmes of different light intensity don't make a lot of sense. That said, it's really bright, it lasts and it's a good price.

Super bike light!
Very good and functional bike light which can be combined with a wired remote control for quick on and off or switching between low and high beam. Unfortunately, the attachment to the handlebars is not easy to handle (attach and detach slightly awkward, the attachment unfortunately does not protect against theft in gernigsten).

A great light for lots of applications
I like this light as it has a great range of light output options. I don't want to be the cyclist that annoys drivers with an overly powerful front light. In my opinion there is no need to run the light at 1300 lumens on the road. 400 or 800 are more than ample for good vision. And you will definitely be seen! The flashing modes and 'daytime running lights' mode are good too. Battery life has proven to be more than sufficient for my needs and I've used the light during the daytime on low power mode and at night time on higher powered modes and it's not come close to depleting the battery. I'm not sure why some reviewer have said the mode options are confusing. It's a simple loop of light output modes. Read the instructions and put them into practice and there isn't a problem! I'm happy with my purchase overall. It's a robust piece of kit! My only criticism is the handlebar attachment strap/bracket doesn't instil confidence that it's going to keep the light affixed to the handlebars. I haven't had a problem yet, but it could be better.
Pros & Cons
4 / 5
Solid construction and a lot of light
I ordered the lamp because I have not found a really bright lamp approved in Germany under 450€. It is really bright, made of aluminum and even the silicone holder is so much better than, for example, from a Sigmalampe! Am very satisfied, even if the light could still come a little more modulated on the road.
Pros & Cons

Top lamp!
Lots of light output, convenient fixing
4 / 5
Wide beam of light. Many modes, a possibility for every moment
Less practical is the operation between the standard mode with 6 sub modes and the maximum mode.

does what it needs to do.
Very good offer; difference with 1800W is almost nil. but for t real work you need 2 , 1 on your handlebars and 1 on your helmet

This light can really light up a forest! If only it could last 1.5 hours more (so it reaches 4 hours at max power), it would get the last two stars.

Good solid bright lamp
Very happy with this lamp, very bright and wide light beam, luckily there is a race mode on it so you can switch between 2 modes (bright and soft). The only thing is the button, the rubber of this button came loose once in my backpack luckily I found it and was able to fix everything but now I doubt the waterproofness via this side. Otherwise very robust.
Pros & Cons
4 / 5
powerful light at a wide angle
The light works very well. It's powerful enough to feel safe in the forest. It shines well in front and also a little to the sides, so you can see what's going on around you. However, the clip isn't great. You really have to tighten it to prevent the light from spinning.
Pros & Cons
4 / 5
powerful but difficult to adjust
good lighting but difficult to switch from one mode to another because of the single button
Pros & Cons

Good, bright light with good spread for off road
Light good for on and off road. Doesnt always function properly, sticking on one setting, particulary in cold weather. Had this with Lezyne lights before and they right themselves after a day or two. Easy to attach and remove to bike using strong rubber strap
