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.

5 out of 5 stars The best light   December 2, 2008
G. Living (Los Angeles, Ca)
I ordered 2 of these lights and they work great. They are extremely bright and very small. They come with a seat post mount and the light it self has a slide on type mount. The two mounts work together, so you can slide the light on and off your bike at will and also you are able to attach the light to anything using the slide on mount. Things like your backpack, your pocket or anything with a thin edge.

This has to be the best rear bike light out there right now.



5 out of 5 stars Be safe, be seen, stay alive   November 30, 2008
Gunter J. Steffen (Menlo Park, CA USA)
Whatever else may be said about visibility at night, this light is hard to ignore. At night the flash mode is bright enough to be seen by motorists from a far greater distance than other "blinky" lights. It's definitely an attention grabber. It may be a pricier than most, but it's cheap life insurance and way cheaper than a visit to the hospital.


5 out of 5 stars Super Flash is Great   November 23, 2008
Steven Kimmet (Columbus, OH USA)
This light is awesome. With the bright LED blinking, it's hard not to be seen. Anything to help from being run over is something needed.


5 out of 5 stars Blindingly bright   November 23, 2008
E. Downing (Raleigh NC USA)
It's nearly impossible to ride behind a rider with this light flashing. The bright LED is ideal for dusk when some daylight remains, it cuts through to following drivers' eyes. I've installed these on three steeds.


5 out of 5 stars Hands down one of the brightest taillights out there right now.   November 22, 2008
W. Li (Bay Area, CA)
This thing is bright and well built. I have not had any problems with it so far. Because of its brightness, I use it day and night and feel much safer with it.
