Cateye Sync Kinetic Rear Light

Cateye Sync Kinetic Rear Light

With the Cateye Sync Kinetic Rear Light, you get a seriously technical piece of kit with a host of advanced features that make this a superb option.

With a maximum output of 50 lumens and an excellent 180° of visibility, you'll be seen on the road day or night. The kinetic mode works like a brake light, turning the light on at 50 lumens when it detects sharp deceleration, while Group Ride mode keeps the light level at a more eye-friendly intensity for the comfort and safety of the rider behind.

Sync mode opens this rear light to a world of connectivity and customisation. You can control the light via the Sync app on a compatible smart device, connecting it to a chain of up to seven other lights (sold separately). Using the app, you can determine exactly how much power remains in the lithium polymer battery too.

Charge up this great unit in just 2.5 hours using the included micro-USB cable, making it the perfect commuter light that you can recharge at your desk.
