Lezyne
PROS: The lights are decent for the brightness on a budget. No extra cord sent to eventually add to a landfill.
CONS: The biggest kerfuffuffle is the direct charging USB on the back side of these!!? This product really needs to have an image of that in the online store. Difficult to fit two of these lights next to each other on certain surge protector strips and I feel the rubber cover of the USB attachment will be a weak link in the near future. In the past all silicone/rubber parts faded first before the rest of a lights components (mostly in reference to the silicon around-frame-straps). If this rubber goes walkabout thru usage I feel the exposed light charging USB will be too fragile to use safely.

I have these installed now on both road and mountain bikes and the CNC components are really top-notch. Never a problem with compatibility with a number of frame and floor pumps. I love them but it's like using a Hummer for a grocery-getter. So much superior to the myriad offerings on the e-commerce sites, and that is how I justify them. They are the epitome of gilding the lily. The best tubeless valve stems, ever. Form, fit and function are first class.
I recently received one of these as a gift, and to be honest I thought it was not going to work well.
I was way wrong, it works amazing!
In the past I would have to remove my valve core to hope I could seat the tire with a high volume floor pump. Then once it mounted I would add sealant and reinflate.
With this, I add sealant when mounting the tire, leave valve core in and simply inflate, amazing!
If you run tubeless, this is a great tool to have in your workshop.
