It's a copy of the Specialized Roubaix Zertz seatpost, but without the Zertz elastomer in it

Anyone try these lights? I want something brighter than 1200 lumens for nighttime rides. They also come with a front mount, so I'm leaning towards this one.

I received my 10000 lumen light bar this week. This light is nuts. It makes my 1600 lumen projection bike light look like a blinky light. I wanted something for bike camping in the desert. This sucker is a bit heavy and it gets a bit hot to the touch. Hopefully it doesn't spontaneously catch on fire!  ;D

let us know how long battery lasts and how you mounted it!

let us know how long battery lasts and how you mounted it!

My gravel bike has a RYET carbon fiber computer mount (attached with two stem bolts) and I'm using a lower computer mount attachment that came with the light. It also comes with two clamps that attach to the handle bars. I'll test the light out this week during a night ride. On the plus side, it appears the batteries are replaceable if I need to swap them out.

Balugoe has some new components! As usual, I've been happy with a lot of their components. They're up there with the likes of Elita One when it comes to carbon bars, stems, etc.

Carbon stem with full integrated spacers:

$70 for a stem with "lenght" printed on it :/

I bought some cheap Bucklos riser bars for my ebike and they're not even in the sweep, having a few more degrees on the right hand side of the bar.

Anyone have suggestions for acceptable quality mtb risers from ali?

If you're UK based and 25mm rise is enough then these are a bargain at £38

I believe that the brand name is really "Baluga"  depicting the look of this stem.

They're just combining length and weight of the stem!  ;D

Cheers, i'm nz. Looking for a 40mm-50mm rise as I made a mistake cutting the steerer and was barely a few mm a way from ending up with an unusable fork.

Did you tested already this lamp? :)

I'll test it out on a night ride tomorrow. I'll report back!  ;)

Definitely pricing is region dependent, er9 is more here

Honestly region and time depending, I got this bundle for $432 USD and after US specific coupons $365 USD. Now I see it at $780ish.

My guess was I was lucky with my timing open AliEx to see it at such a low price. Wont be using the crankset, bb, chain and cassette but still a steal and I might be able to offload them for dirt cheap and make some back.

Does anyone know if there exists a 12 speed MTB cassette that works with sram transmission flat top?

This light is so nuts. It's bright ASF. I also prefer it over projection style headlights that use magnification optics. This light bar has consistent light distribution and just looks bad ass. They have smaller versions of this light if this one is too big. I'm using a carbon fiber bike stem computer mount to hold it. I'd probably recommend using the 2 handlebar clamps that also come with this light if you want total stability.
