About Planet Bike
In November of 1996, Planet Bike was founded in Madison, Wisconsin. In many ways, Planet Bike began as a social experiment that dedicated itself to doing business in a different way. Instead of being just another company that develops and sells products with profit as its end goal, Planet Bike wanted to help bring about positive change for people, their communities, and the environment.

Despite being a simple machine, the people at Planet Bike have always believed that the bicycle has great potential to help improve the world and the lives of the people in it. From the start, they have embraced an alternative corporate purpose which seeks to help get more people on bicycles by making communities friendlier places for the self-propelled. By donating 25% of company profits to causes that promote and facilitate bicycle usage, Planet Bike hopes to make an impact.

Social experiments aside, Planet Bike was born from the heart of a cyclist with a goal of making innovative, high quality, and practical bicycle accessories. Simply put, they strive to design and develop the best bicycle products in the world. In the company's short ten year history, they have made important product innovations within the bicycle industry. Advancements include the 4-line computer which is now a standard in the industry and the world's first self-contained HID light. Not bad for a company that ten years ago started as a one man operation. Today, while still a small company, Planet Bike continues to evolve and improve their product line with the goal of always striving to build accessories that make it easier for people to ride their bikes. Since 1996, Planet Bike's financial support of the grassroots bicycle movement has totaled $500,000. By 2010, they have made a goal to donate $1 million to organizations that are dedicated to making America a friendlier place for cyclists.

This light is very bright, with both a flashing and solid red option. I've purchased three of them in all. Based on a prior purchase of the product, the disposable batteries last a long time, and it is visible from a significant distance. i highly recommend it.

This tail light has not changed in at least 13 years, but I still like it. Easy to find a batteries, it comes the mounting bracket for round frame tubes and seat stays with a good adjusting range and shims for different tube sizes. Also available for mounting on a rear rack. The mounting is very secure, but the light itself can be removed by hand. There is also a clip which can be used on a jersey pocket or on a bag with a loop provided for the purpose.

Very bright! Good for cycling safety, and you will get many hours of strong flashing light without having to "recharge." A long distance cycling must!

Provides a highly visible flash and has great battery life. I ride a lot (4,000 or mor miles per year) and run them day and night.

Rear luggage racks most often incorporate a standard mounting point for a rear light. So why does the best-selling daytime rear light not include the bracket to use this mount? -1* for this nasty little bit of cost-cutting. (Planet Bike's Grateful Red model includes the rack mount, but is not bright enough for daytime use)That's the ONLY complaint about this light. It's simple, has a suitable mode for any use, is lightweight, and affordable.Modes it has:- Solid on (low profile)- Superflash (daytime use; very bright & stroby)- Solid on with occasional flash (good for nighttime)

My first Planet Bike Superflash Bike Tail Light lasted over ten years of daily commuting. A leaky battery finally killed it. I bought the same light to replace it because it provides a very visible light to cars (without blinding them, which I think creates a hazard) and is low maintenance. I get 1-2 years of use from two AA batteries.

This is a great tail light. I have had the same one on my bike for over 10 years now and it still works great. The new one works just as good. I like the hardware for mounting. It does not come with cheap stretch and hook silicone, with options for the seat tube or brake rails. It also came with batteries. It costs more than a lot out there but I do not regret a penny of it. It is bright for evening/early morning and night riding. The lighting pattern is very effective. I prefer to use my own rechargeable batteries which has worked great as my first unit is still going strong for over a decade. internal batteries when used up renders the device useless. The light on the left in the picture is my old one and on the right is the new one.

取付方法、性能、デザイン全て満足です。特に性能、兎に角明るいです。0.5W LED部分は直視出来ないほどの光量ですので、自己アピールには十分です。特にヘッドライトを点けている車には、このくらいの明るさがないと目立たない気もします。バイクからサッと外せてバッグ等にスッとさせる(フックがありますので)のも使いやすいです。値段がやや高いキライもありますが、この性能・デザインなのでこんなものでしょう。

I'm pretty skeptical of most products and companies. If you are not being outright farmed, even the good products are not all that. But, every time I turn on this blinky, "Wow, that is f'ing great!". It is stupidly wonderful. Planet Bike already made the second best blinky, the Seven, which is really good and somewhat cheaper. They could have just improved that a little and been fine. Instead they gave us the alien technology blinky from the future.Seriously, this is almost perfect. Solid, good mounts, convenient, excellent battery life, good size, inexpensive if not cheap, almost too bright, very attention getting blink pattern. It is so effective that you can hear when it is on just by the sound of overtaking traffic. It would be nice if it had a wider coverage angle to the sides and up and down, but this is difficult to do. The Planet Bike Seven has extra LEDs that point sideways to help with this, but it is nowhere near as bright (it would be a good complement to the Superflash).Planet bike also make the best headlight mount in the business. Unfortunately, their LED headlights fail to impress. Hopefully they will put the Superflash team on the headlights soon.The other blinkys are just sad. Except the DiNotte, which is sexy, bright, beautiful and well over a hundred dollars and might get stolen and make you cry.
