Reviews
Great idea to allow a Garmin to be mounted on top of it. Being able to do so saves a lot of handle bar room which let's me utilize more hand positions relieving numbness.
I was using the original Raveman 250 for a few years and was starting to experience diminished battery life on longer rides; The newer FR500 is a big improvement, and definitely is brighter, and definitely has longer lasting battery life. I don't ride at night with this light, but the non-flashing modes appear to offer better light, as well, if one happens to be out riding at dusk. The trade off is that the new unit is a better, thicker, and thus heavier than the earlier model. I think it's a worthwhile trade off for the way it integrates under my Garmin computer and increases the new unit's brightness and battery life, but did look elsewhere in my 'carry-on equipment' to see where I could reduce those additional grams of weight. Tip: although not really an issue, I do use a small rubber band to wrap between the top of the Raveman (under the Garmin Computer) and then under my handlebar stem mount, to reduce vibration.
Super clean and convenient, had been using its predecessor for years. The newest Raveman is 3x brighter, albeit slightly thicker and a bit heavier. Small price to pay for something that might save your life. Also, the on/off button and charging port are a bit more functional.
I keep this on my gravel bike for when rides in the woods might run long and I need a ride to get home. Plenty of light for riding around town without having to deal with extra mounts on my bars.
Very bright. Adds cantilever weight if you have an out front mount. I removed the attached lanyard upon arrival. After several uses, I hit a bump and the light, and my Garmin, went flying. My mount circle failed.
Fortunately,I was able to retrieve both with little more than scratches.
I bought this for my gravel/road bike for added safety. If it was up to my wife I'd be encased in lights and bubble wrap, but I get it. I live in a rural part of AZ and drivers aren't always very attentive. The light is sleek and easy to mount. I like the brightness and the fact you can adjust light patterns.
The Raveman light has multiple modes- flash, steady, warning. Takes up no more room on my narrow handlebars as my Wahoo device sits right on top. Love the streamline. Doesn't need to be charged as much as many other lights I've had. Solid product.
I like this light because it mounts easily and cleanly on my out-front Garmin mount. Other lights I've had to strap to my handlebar or stem and there is very little room on my handlebars for lights. I've had it for 3 weeks and have yet needed to recharge it (4 rides). I haven't used it at night yet, so not sure how it performs then, but i suspect will be fine for my limited needs.
Great headlight that integrates with the ubiquitous garmin computer mount. Garmin is equally secure on the light. Brightness is outstanding. Battery life is excellent. Charging is also clear with the indicator light.
Very happy with this light and it's innovative mount integration with Garmin cyclocomputer. It is easy to operate and plenty bright for road night riding. Love this front light and it's USB-C ease of charging.
I think this light is as great as it can be for the price. The beam is a little dispersed, but pretty strong and it is visible from the sides. Mounting is not an issue if you have a computer mount already. Snap in and go.
Works great. Super bright and convenient. The smart auto off sometimes will shut it off while you are getting ready to go, so double check before you go that it is still on.
