5.0 out of 5 stars Size reference chart, August 16, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
I had a hard time figuring out what size I needed for a synthetic sleeping bag that was given to me. I ended up getting a 12l after trying to figure out my bags stuff size. I was wrong, it ended up being too small, but it will still be perfect for my cold weather thermals. The sack it self seems very well made, especially for the price.

On the back of the sacks packing, it gives you a size chart recommendation, Hopefully this will help others too.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good quality, durable, compresses well and looks sharp, August 31, 2012
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
I purchased a smaller sized compression sack that was rated for 'ultra light' sleeping bags: I couldn't even fit it half way inside!
Do yourself a favor and get the larger sack; it's easier to just cram your sleeping bag in there and cinch it down afterwards.
These sacks look good, survived the first season without a tear, and look like they'll last for a while.
I'm liking OR products more and more, just make sure you get the larger size! 12 liters is perfect for an average size 3 season bag.

Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
Hits the basics, simple lightweight & it works. Great at compacting stuff. I think the hardest part was figuring out what size to get. I posted pictures of the 12L sac. This fits my one-person tent with room to spare and it really makes a difference. Love it!

3.0 out of 5 stars works OK, but not well packaged, March 26, 2011

This review is from: Planet Bike Tail Light Rack Bracket (Sports)
I bought this to attach my BP tail light to my Topeak Super Tourist rack. The hole pattern in the bracket exactly matches the hole pattern on the rack's bracket. All good there, though just a note that the bracket in this situation ends up reversed....the light clips in snugly, fortunately.

However, the PB bracket comes with zero instructions. OK, it's not rocket science to figure out, but I do think that any product that needs to be installed should at least come with a diagram. Next, fasteners: while there are four holes in the bracket, you get two bolts, two lock washers, two nuts, and an assortment of washers in various sizes. No idea what the extra washers are meant for. And I guess with four holes I might have gone with four bolts/nuts/lock washers. I can always go to the hardware store to fill the vacuum that nature abhors.

Last point: aim is very critical with any light, and especially with LED lights which are very directional. The seat post bracket that... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Attaches Light Securely To A Rear Rack, April 19, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Planet Bike Tail Light Rack Bracket (Sports)
Attaches the Planet Bike Blinky "3" 3-Led Rear Bicycle Light securely to the rear taillight mount on a Topeak Explorer rack. Allows the rear light to be set to the proper angle and keeps it from vibrating around (lost the first rear blinky I purchased due to it vibrating off the rack when using the clip mount included with the light). It would have been better (and less expensive) for me to purchase the Planet Bike 3018-1 Rack Blinky 5- 5 LED Tail Light with Rack Mount and Batteries which includes the rack mount hardware.

(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (VINE VOICE)    (REAL NAME)   
Works great. I've used it for several thousand road-miles with a superflash. You do need to have a rack that is designed for tail light mounting to use it. The mount has held up well and the light is much more visible on the back of the rack instead of the seatpost. PB should include this with the light, but it is well worth $5.

5.0 out of 5 stars Form Meets Function, April 7, 2010
This review is from: Planet Bike 3042-1 Spok LED Light Set with 1 LED Headlight and 1 LED Tail Light (Sports)
I bought a pair of these at my local bike shop for $20, so I was entirely aware of the size when I bought them. The price point did make me think about it for a moment, but between the lack of separate mounting hardware to break or lose (note: I *always* lose my headlight mounts -- always) and the fact that they could be easily transferred between my various bikes, I decided to give the SPOK lights a go. The lights turned out to be well worth the gamble.

First, as aforementioned, you cannot lose the mounting hardware on these -- you might lose the velcro wrapstrap, but if that happens all you need to do is pick up another wrap strap or run a zip tie through the strap housing. The lights mount securely to just about anything without the need for those weird little rubber shims that come with most head- and tail-light mounting brackets. They stay where you put them, as you positioned them. Their simplicity is, in a word, beautiful.

Moreover, these lights are... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars the best inexpensive bike light I've used so far, June 17, 2009
This review is from: Planet Bike 3042-1 Spok LED Light Set with 1 LED Headlight and 1 LED Tail Light (Sports)
the SPOK lights are great- they're lightweight, the velcro straps make it easy to attach to any bike quickly or transfer it between bikes without additional hardware, and they're pretty bright, yet small enough to keep in your pocket in case you can't leave them on the bike. I don't know what the battery life is or if it's a hassle to change 'em, but so far I'm extremely happy with them.

This review is from: Planet Bike 3042-1 Spok LED Light Set with 1 LED Headlight and 1 LED Tail Light (Sports)
These lights are incredibly bright for their size. They feature both blinking and steady light. With their small size, they mount just about anywhere, even your helmet.
