Cheap, bright
Quick release mechanism- doesn't hold light securely, on/off too easy to knock on accidentally
Cheap and bright, but badly let down by its 'quick release' mechanism. This is basically a strap with a number of holes in it which hooks over a tab. Unfortunately it is nowhere near as good as a screw mechanism, and I haven't been able to get the light to stay in place on anything other than a dead smooth section of tarmac.
Also, the on/off button is quite 'soft', and I quite often find that it's flashing away in my rucksack where it's got knocked.
Despite the low price, I would recommend paying a bit more for a Cateye.
