Excellent design and function

This Blinder Road 400 is my second Blinder Road. I bought my first one (BR 200) in 2015, and after hundreds of multi hour rides, hundreds of recharging cycles, the old standby is still going great. I use the eco-flash mode exclusively and I still get about 3+1/2 hours before the low battery indicator lights up. I bought the new Blinder Road because some of my rides are lasting longer than that, and now I can switch to the other light when needed. The new one lasts 4+1/2 hours before the low battery indicator lights up (the light continues to flash for some time after this, but I think it best not to drain the battery past that point).

I like the design and shape of the Blinder Road. To me, its look is uniquely modern while evoking the Art Deco designs of almost a century ago. The buttons are raised, more easily found with the fingertips than on the older model I have, but the mode functions are the same: eco-flash, flood, spot, and flood/spot combo. The Hi/Lo button works for each mode selection, but I use the Lo level unless I'm riding through a tunnel. The two CREE LEDs are plenty bright (on Lo Eco-flash) for general daylight riding but don't seem overly bright to oncoming drivers. The silicone straps and are very reliable yet are easily and quickly unfastened when the ride is over. I got years of use from the two straps that came with the original light. Overall, I will simply say that I liked the old model so much that I bought another one and I'm very pleased.

Awesome light

Small but nice upgrade from the older Knogs i had especially the 2 switches being proud on body, more tactile and way easier to find and activate in the dark.
Side lighting is a good thing as well. Just wish the battery was a little bigger for more runtime.

Bright and Compact

Perfect light for my needs. I wanted a compact commuter light. Something bright enough to get me home on my very dark commute home, but compact enough and easy on/off so that I can stash it in a bag as needed.
Defintiely bright enough for riding in full darkness as long as your ride isn't too long.

Great illumination in a small package

I love my Blinder Road 400 front bike light. It's a very compact size that doesn't take up much handlebar space yet delivers a powerful, twin beam of light that really illuminates the roadway. I also love the side-by-side, dual beam design that gives you plenty of illumination options.

'a bike light that sits beautifully on any handlebar'

‘it was easy for us to give Knog Blinder 400 Front Light such a high overall score of 9.1 / 10. It seems to have the perfect combination of features, quality and price making it a great all-rounder.’

Advanced LEDs & Optics

There's no such thing as a universal bike-light. Depending on end use and even bike type dictate the best bike light to use. Blinder Road 400 utilises 2 LEDs each independently capable of 250 lm or 400 lm when use together. The left optic has a 12-degree beam, providing a spotlight, which is perfect for racing and fast riding on smooth roads. Whilst the right optic has 32-degree beam, providng a flood light, which is best suited for use on slower rides on bumpy or uneven riding conditions.

Unique Fastening System

Utilising silicone to create the elastomeric strap, combined with an over-molded polycarbonate clip system, allows Blinder Road to adapt to the many various configurations required of today’s road cyclists. The Blinder Road is stylish and versatile enough to fit with a multitude of today's high-end bicycle cockpits. Includes two removable silicone straps for bars 22-28mm & 29-35mm.

Waterproof & Integrated USB Charging

The Blinder road is 100% waterproof with a rating of IP67, which means you can submerge your light in depths up to 1 metre for up to 30 minutes without damage. The light is charged via integrated USB, which means so it does not require additional cables to charge from a USB Port as well as no need for single use batteries.

Intuitive Functionality

When your Blinder is running low on battery, a red led will light up next to the button. This ring will turn green when fully charged and then turn off once the Blinder is unplugged from the power source. With a design that is wider rather than longer, accommodating the 2 optics side by side keeps the centre of gravity as close to the handlebar as possible which avoids the potential for movement on bumpy roads. Finally, the Blinder Road’s buttons and strap closures are all at the perfect ergonomic angle to present themselves to the rider, and big enough to be used while wearing gloves.
