Amazing bike taillight!
The media could not be loaded. You need this light! If you’re looking at this product this is a must have! Super bright. Super effective. The remote works awesome! Everything about this light is a must have for your bike. You will not be disappointed. The value for this light is definitely 100% worth it. Amazing product.

Great tail light for the price.
Bought this for my Sur Ron since I didn't want to mess with the wiring to put a tail light on there so this was the perfect solution. The turn signals aren't too visible so I wouldn't rely on them but the tail light itself and the lasers that are projected onto the ground are super bright and look pretty cool. The remote to control the lights are easy to mount onto the bars but the rubber band isn't tight or grippy enough. The remote moves around every time you press a button so I don't even bother trying to use the signals. I mainly got it for the tail light since the stock light that came on the Sur Ron isn't too bright. I feel 100x's more visible to cars with this tail light. I've only had it for a month and so far so good. I've used it for 6 hours straight and the battery hasn't died.As for the mounting options, it's really going to depend on your bike. I got lucky because I was able to clamp this onto the stock license plate mount on my Sur Ron. All in all, not a bad purchase. Only time will tell how long these lights will hold up. If all goes well, I'll be buying more for my other bikes and maybe even my motorcycle.

First impressions
Just got these and went on 2 rides so far, will update this review for long term, but for now:Electronics: everything works as advertised. no issue with the battery, the range of the remote is fine, the lights are bright and attention grabbing (a good thing on the road), the lasers can be seen during day time but esp bright after dark. the auto brake light works, sensitivity is so-so but on any fast stops it def. will trigger.Hardware: this is where I have to deduct one star -- everything works but everything is flimsy. the bike light is entirely plastic, what I thought were heat sinks down below are just artistic expressions. the mounting kits (it has 2, one connects to your seat post, the other directly to the seat stays) are all THIN plastics, and all the supplied screws are PHILIPS. For something that's load bearing, small, and hard to reach, this company decided to use Philips screws over the bike standard hex bolts, which means not only it's hard to reach, easy to strip, it also needs a nut on the other side that's even smaller and even easier to lose. The main light clips onto the mounting bracket via a small locking tab that's no thicker than 1mm -- consider this light has only a 2000 mAh battery capacity, and no power level indicators, you'll have to charge it fairly often (I'm guessing once a week at a minimum -- I ride often), and stress that 1mm piece of plastic repeatedly. Sure it'll be fine the first week, but I have my doubts on the longevity of the whole set up.It's a great looking light, and from a distance this looks like a grade A product. But upon closer inspection you will know you got what you paid for. for 30 some odd bucks it's a sophisticated bit of kit, only let down by cost saving (poor) decisions, and Chinese "ingenuity". It'll work for now, but I'll come back in a year WHEN this thing fails.

Good design, though light pattern is gimmicky
Just installed it today on my road bike and took two trips during the day and night. In the first ride, i couldn't get ANY light to work and I didn't have time to read the manual. Still haven't read it, but I realized that none of the lights work during the day without blocking the sensor! This is a bit surprising. A tape solved the problem, but I wish there was a way to override the sensor.I also wish there is a turn signal without the red lights moving slowly in the direction of the blink. It may be confusing as it is not a standard blinking pattern.I installed the button in the middle on my road bike. It is not easy to reach in a hurry. It works for well planned turns. There is no good place for it close to the brake levers.I tried the stop, and the light changes pattern. Also not a standard pattern, it just goes crazy blinking red and yellow.I don't understand why the most obvious mode is not supported: blinking or reduced led normally. Strong solid red upon stopping. Strong blinking on one side only when turning.The unit is a bit wobbly because of the removable sliding connection. Hopefully it will last.Still inclined to give a full rating, because it seems to do the job well at a good price in a presentable package, with a wireless remote.

It's bad. Like really bad.
Update: Their customer service is really good. They reached out to me, looks like my unit was defective, and offered me a replacement/refund anyway.Original below:This is a bad product. It doesn't live up to its promises and using it is an exercise in frustration. I lost the box and can't return it annoyingly.- The button controller is held on with an elastic band that doesn't hold the handlebar tight enough, causing it to slip without padding.- The button presses sometimes don't register, for example I press left signal and though a little indicator light shows on the button that it's blinking, the actual LED light doesn't reflect that. Pressing it again makes the light actually signal, but now the remote doesn't think I'm signaling and is out of sync!- The above is made worse by the buttons being super mushy and it being too easy to click multiple at once, at which point you have no idea what that'll do. Several times I've done this and makes it totally pointless.- Setting the light to solid red, it'll sometimes switch back to blinking without me doing anything. Not sure why though, and it's inconsistent about it.- There's no indicator sound that the turn signal is activated like some other products, meaning you have to squint at a faint indicator light on the controller to tell what it (thinks) it's doing.
