Product details

With a maximum power of over 70 Lux, the GVolt 70 impresses not only with its convincing craftsmanship but also with a smart "upside-down" mounting solution. This keeps the lamp protected under the handlebars, adding no extra bulk. Additionally, it can be mounted on out-front brackets. The uniform illumination is particularly striking from the side, as it lights up well beyond the edge of the road. This ensures safety even on winding rides.

The Rapid Micro G is a lightweight and practical USB-rechargeable rear light. The included USB charging cable breathes new life into the integrated lithium-ion battery, and a handy battery status warning lets you know in time when it's time to recharge. The rear light can be mounted both vertically and horizontally—just as you prefer.

A positive feature of this high-quality model is the mounting on the underside of the handlebar, which also works on aero handlebars that are not too wide. In addition, you could combine it with a speedometer mount via the GoPro adapter that comes with it. With a weight of 118 grams, it is also light...

Affectionately called "Batman lamp" by testers because of the extravagant light pattern. Overall, good light pattern and service life. Deductions are made for the limited features and the lack of visibility from the side.
