4.0/5
Usage: MediumCold White, Black
  • VERY bright
  • mount is ok
  • Battery was NOT included and must be ordered seperately
  • Cone is not useful for city or traffic, as there is no cutoff and you will blind upcoming people
  • if you ride over rough terrain the battery or light will flicker. In the end, a good extra light for the dark forest nights, and price was very ok.

Surprisingly heavy, not particular long battery life. But nice decent design. I already lost it (not the fault of the light, I put it on a saddle bag which is very prone to lose it)

Total crap. It's impossible to see anything in this. Compared to brand stuff "The Plug", the mirror is useless, as it zooms a little and is not clear, so it's impossible to see anything.

Time to go NIGHT RIDING. Magicshine MJ-906S Bike light review.
00:14:54

The reviewer tested the Magicshine MJ-906S bike light during a night ride, praising its brightness (4500 lumens), wide beam, and versatility with multiple mounting options including handlebar, helmet top, under visor, and chin mount. He found it performed well in dark forest conditions, with a battery life of at least 2.5 hours on a ride and still going after 3 hours of daytime use. He noted the light gets hot when stationary and that the cable length for helmet mounting could be longer.

  • Wide beam: allows seeing corners without a second light.
  • Versatile mounting: handlebar, helmet top, under visor, chin mount.

more pros in the video

Winspace Hyper 50 vs Zipp 303 S Carbon Wheels: Which Are Best?
00:11:23

The reviewer tested the Lún HYPER 50 Disc Brake wheels over several months and found them to be fast, light, and stiff, with impressive straight-line speed and a striking appearance. However, they noted that the ride quality is firm and less comfortable on rough roads, and crosswind stability is not as confidence-inspiring as some competitors. The wheels come with carbon spokes, ceramic bearings, and a hooked rim design, but the warranty is only two years compared to lifetime warranties from some rivals. Overall, the reviewer considers them an excellent option in the £1000 price bracket, though they might personally choose the Zipp 303s for the lifetime warranty and slightly better looks.

AI Summary

Pros

  • Fast in a straight line, comparable to other deep-section carbon wheels.
  • Lightweight at 1455 grams.
  • Carbon fiber spokes and ceramic bearings are premium features.

more pros in the video

Cons

  • Ride quality is firm and harsh, transmitting road feedback.
  • Crosswind stability is not as good as some other deep-section wheels.
  • Not as comfortable on rough roads.

more cons in the video

Key Points

  • 50mm rim depth, also available in 38mm and 65mm.
  • Disc brake version tested; rim brake version also available.
  • Rim width: 26mm external, 19mm internal.
