Brightz Bike Wheel Lights (2-Pack

Love it! I ride an electric bike and I have to ride at night because of the hours I work. These have me feeling safe as I ride because of how much they light up the bike. Definitely recommend!

I've had these on my bike for about 8 months and haven't had to change the batteries once yet. They were super easy to install and haven't migrated from their original position, which was a concern of mine. They're bright, you can pick any solid color or let the colors cycle for a very cool show. I get loads of compliments riding at night and appreciate the safety of being seen while riding in the dark.

Great I love them but the seals on the boxes are not great. We got caught in a rain storm and bikes never went under water and water had entered the boxes. As you can see the front green one doesn’t work. Rear flickers but the center one works fine. As for the white ones. The center no longer works. Water entered the box. Back lights are fading away like the batteries are dying but I just changed them with greasy one and that how they are now. I want to get them replaced and I’ll have to seal the boxes with a silicone of sorts.

I got these for my bike at Burning Man in 2022. Loved the lights! So easy to install. The strap for attaching the battery pack was easy to use. The lights looked great. Yahoo. Went out for a ride. Unfortunately — the next morning when I looked at the bike, I found that the battery pack from the rear wheel was completely gone. It had completely fallen off the wheel. Lights were kaput. I used tape to reinforce the connection of the front wheel battery pack to the tire. That survived until almost the end of the week, when I noticed it fly off as I rode. Second set of lights useless. Admittedly the ground at Burning Man in 2022 was very washboard. Pretty much constant bouncing everywhere. I imagine that the bands were simply not up to that level of persistent jostling. Still after 10 days of use, less than 50 miles of riding, both lights are completely useless. Maybe these will work for gentle rides on smooth pavement, For anything harsher than that, they need serious help to keep the battery pack in place. I guess the best part of this story is that when the batter pack came loose, it broke the connecting wires and was flung away, rather than getting tangled in moving bike parts. I’d give this 5 stars for ease of use and coolness. But falling apart so fast - sorry, gotta give it 1 star. P.S. I see there are lots of complaints in recent reviews about the strap breaking. I wonder if the manufacturer changed the strap recently. Brightz, notice up! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Update 8/19/23 - About 4 days after posting my original review we received an email from Brightz saying they wanted to make things right, and offering a replacement set of lights. I love the lights, so said yes. We’ve installed these on the bike. I noticed that the band for the battery pack is different than last year’s - very stiff, and more difficult to install. We also zip tied the battery pack to the spokes. Will make it more difficult to change batteries, but they’ll probably last the week, and I’m not interested in risking the lights just to find out if the new band is stronger than the old one. Did learn one thing - it’s important to install the battery pack right-side-up, with the light wires coming out toward the rim. Duh. We got it upside down on the front wheel. The connecting cord isn’t long enough to reach to the rim in this case. See picture. So for now we’re set. Brightz definitely gets credit for quick response. Increasing from 1 star to 2 for good customer support. Will report back again after Burning Man. Fingers crossed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Updated 9/13/23 Well, the good news is that with the addition of the zip ties, the lights and battery pack lasted all week. Sweet. As luck would have it, one night I noticed a piece of litter (i.e. “moop” - matter out of place) that turned out to be another WheelBrightz battery pack. This was Wednesday evening, when the playa was still very smooth. Looks like their battery pack strap still isn’t adequate. I’ve upgraded the rating to 4 stars - their customer service was good, I like the lights, and I’m OK adding zip ties. Not 5 stars because I still don’t trust their battery pack strap.

Was skeptical when I bought these about them working on a smaller wheel and on an e-bike that obtains 20 plus mph speed. What I did do, and HIGHLY RECOMMEND is take your time in mounting them as tight to the wheel rim as possible and then use tie wraps every few inches to secure them further. (I needed to use extra tie wraps not supplied). I also took the battery controller and used the rubber straps to secure it to the spokes AND took several long tie wraps and secured it better. (This was one of the sticking points people mentioned in reviews about the straps breaking or loosening). By adding tie wraps I don’t have to worry they will break and result in disaster for me and the bike. I was also worried about cutting them to fit the shorter/smaller wheel, but this worked fine. I just made sure to cut after a light. I didn’t want to wrap excess throughout the tire like some suggested. I wanted a clean circle around the tire. Pros: Easy to install, being able to cycle through all colors or to stop on one color makes for endless choice and cool effect and you can change color to suit your mood every time your ride or stop the bike. Cons: Felt necessary to secure more than recommended with extra tie wraps, a bit hard to turn off and on when you have to reach through the spokes to find the push button. While securing it extra, it does make it more difficult when batteries need changing, but safety was first for me. Overall, it provides great light for dusk or night riding and great visibility of your bike on the road or trail, and boy do your look and feel cool! Buy them and have fun! All eyes will turn when you ride!

Had these for a few weeks. Very bright and great for riding at night. Will buy again for the back wheel.

I get lots of happy comments when i ride my bike in the dark with these lights on. Easy to install

I ordered a 2 pack of purple lights but I've received 1 pink one and one purple one. I've also had Tue issue that the battery box plastic strap has snapped 4 times and is almost impossible to fix if you're out at the time.

This was a Christmas present for my grandson. He loved it. However it is yet to go into his bike. But will be done in the next day or so

These lights look cool, get a lot of attention, and are fairly easy to install.....but, the rubber strap that holds the battery box to the spokes is a weak spot that can break and the battery box will get caught up and tear the wires off. I installed these then came back out a few hours later only to find that the soft silicone rubber bands that hold the battery boxes on each wheel was broken and the battery boxes were getting caught on the frame. Luckily I noticed this as I was walking my bike out of the garage on not when I was riding. If it would have let go while riding the battery box would have been ripped from the wire leaving the units useless. I had to use electrical tape to hold the battery boxes to the spokes which is going to make battery changes a pain. I'm sure the manufacturer has received compaints about this issue. I doubt I'm the only one this has happened to. And I doubt the seller will replace the unit if the strap breaks and destroys the unit.
