Knog Blinder Road 600 Lumen front light
We've not reviewed this 600 lumen version yet, but reviewing the 400 lumen version, James Hunt had only good things to say, adding that it was bright enough for country lanes: "Its low bulk, light weight and yet powerful output make it perfect for commuting and shorter unlit lane rides," he added. You can read the full review here.
Knog say: "The performance light for the ultimate road cyclist, packing 600 lumens of light and using two of the latest high-intensity LUMILEDS LEDS ensures roads and paths are flooded with light, no matter where you ride. With incredible power/weight ratio and dual + constant flash modes, you won't find another light like this"
Spec highlights
- Modes: Narrow Beam / Wide Beam / Dual Beam / Flash
- Weight: 95g
- USB chargeable
- 100% waterproof

Knog Blinder Skull Rear Light
First launched in 2012, the Blinder is part of the instant classic line of Knog lights, and the latest version has some clever tricks, such as some distinctly unusual LED light patterns. It's still 100% waterproof, USB-rechargeable and has the simple multi-fit attachment clip. You can expect run time to be between 2.5- 6 hours depending on which setting you use according to Knog, and most importantly you get that unique Skull flash pattern with 9 flash modes. Completely mad, totally Knog!
Spec highlights
- x4 Unique graphic flash patterns
- x8 modes: Steady, Fast Flash, Organic Flash 1, Organic Flash 2, Eco-flash
- 100% Waterproof
- 34 grams

Last but not least, it's the Knog Plus Twinpack
We reviewed the Knog Plus rear light and really liked it back in Dec 2020, with Nic giving it a well-deserved 9/10. Nic summed up the Plus as "an impressively simple light that weighs almost nothing, yet at 20 lumens is bright enough for a useful visibility boost." You can read his full review here.
Spec highlights
- Light Output - 40 lumens (Front) / 20 Lumens (Rear)
- Dimensions - 14 x 66 x 18mm
- Weight - 12g

Theres not one scrap of self-help among drivers is there, it's always someone else's issue.
Oh dear. A single bike in a single size in one shop is not indicative of the entire UK market for bicycles. And the slump isn't just bikes, it's...
Ridiculed or is it just jealousy?
Thank goodness for that. I don't suppose anyone would want you to. You certainly behave like one though.
You do see some utterly ridiculous examples of car use....
Exactly. Every road death is a tragedy but this is at the "twat deserved it" end of the spectrum, looking at the state of that car.
I'm not the editor of this article, nor indeed of anything on this website. One would have thought that didn't require explaining.
I think the answer is in your question. I genuinely didn't know he was married to her. It does kinda explain it. Disappointing, nevertheless.
What do we want?...
In a perfect world, we'd have a measure of how easily distracted someone is, as part of their driving test....
