About Planet Bike
In November of 1996, Planet Bike was founded in Madison, Wisconsin. In many ways, Planet Bike began as a social experiment that dedicated itself to doing business in a different way. Instead of being just another company that develops and sells products with profit as its end goal, Planet Bike wanted to help bring about positive change for people, their communities, and the environment.

Despite being a simple machine, the people at Planet Bike have always believed that the bicycle has great potential to help improve the world and the lives of the people in it. From the start, they have embraced an alternative corporate purpose which seeks to help get more people on bicycles by making communities friendlier places for the self-propelled. By donating 25% of company profits to causes that promote and facilitate bicycle usage, Planet Bike hopes to make an impact.

Social experiments aside, Planet Bike was born from the heart of a cyclist with a goal of making innovative, high quality, and practical bicycle accessories. Simply put, they strive to design and develop the best bicycle products in the world. In the company's short ten year history, they have made important product innovations within the bicycle industry. Advancements include the 4-line computer which is now a standard in the industry and the world's first self-contained HID light. Not bad for a company that ten years ago started as a one man operation. Today, while still a small company, Planet Bike continues to evolve and improve their product line with the goal of always striving to build accessories that make it easier for people to ride their bikes. Since 1996, Planet Bike's financial support of the grassroots bicycle movement has totaled $500,000. By 2010, they have made a goal to donate $1 million to organizations that are dedicated to making America a friendlier place for cyclists.

5.0 out of 5 stars bright, efficient headlight, August 31, 2007

This review is from: Planet Bike Beamer 3 LED Bicycle Light with Quick Cam Bracket Mount (Sports)
I've had mine for almost two years of heavy use. The light is very bright, providing a great deal of visibility and some illumination of the road in front, which is enough for the city, and batteries last a very long time. Most pleasingly, the mounting system is very durable and it seems likely that it will withstand several years of regular use. The unit appears to be impervious to rain. As with all of the gear I've purchased from Planet Bike, a superior level of design is evident. A good, basic LED headlight.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very very good product ......at a very good price, October 22, 2007
By 
MB "orangearrows" (Gaithersburg MD USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Planet Bike Beamer 3 LED Bicycle Light with Quick Cam Bracket Mount (Sports)
Very good product .......bought it after reading the reviews on here . I was still a bit skeptical about the actual quality of light which would come out of this bicycle light ,but I was sure not dissapointed . The beam which comes out , is very bright and very focussed . It forms a small circle / elliptical shape on the light beam in front and very clear + bright .

Has 2 modes - flashing and constant-on

The light can be seen ffrom a far distance away . The color of the light is white instead of yellow , so was easier to spot when far away . Like I said , its very bright and with the flashing mode , would definatly warn the drivers of your presence . A very good buy , you would not be dissapointed , go for it .

Have not used the for the quick cam mount , just using it as a bike light on my handle bars .....

5.0 out of 5 stars Well-designed and energy-efficient and mount is perfect, November 15, 2007
By 
A. Myles (Gainesville, FL United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Planet Bike Beamer 3 LED Bicycle Light with Quick Cam Bracket Mount (Sports)
Some reviews have mentioned problems with the mount being too loose. That's not the case - the mount strap is adjustable and at its loosest setting out of the box. It retracts inward to tighten up, and there is a tab there to loosen it back up. I had no problems having a good, tight fit on my bike after adjusting the strap.

The light is very bright and energy-efficient. In comparison, my previous equally-bright halogen headlight required two C batteries and lasted for a tiny fraction of the time.

Overall excellent design.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best bicycle visibility aid I've seen yet., June 10, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
Wow, can't believe how many people don't read the simple instructions.

I got these last summer for my new bike, since I'm riding through parts of Los Angeles that have very poor lighting in the middle of the night (Cahuenga Pass, if you're familiar), and I LOVE these SpokeLits! I had to order them from another website and they seemed much more expensive (around $15-$20 apiece), but I'm thrilled that Amazon in selling them now!

I put a green and red light on opposite ends of my wheels, and they look great when I'm riding through the streets. I feel much more visible, and I can see the lights reflecting off of the ground, parked cars and windows I pass.

I agree the Blue doesn't seem like it'd be as visible, but for $5 and free shipping, I'm going to order one to try it out.

IMPORTANT! The biggest downside to these is the batteries, which don't last all that long and sell for almost $4 most places (and the SpokeLit uses 2 at a time). But I... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best inventions for night riding, May 4, 2009
The spokelit is a very useful safety measure if you ever take your bike out at night. Since they are relatively inexpensive I purchased two green ones for both wheels. These lights make it virtually impossible for you to go unnoticed when your bike is viewed from the sides. I believe that the solid light mode is more visible when going at higher speeds but if you're going slower then I would recommend switching to the strobe light function. I know that a lot of people have complained that they don't make you visible from the front and back but that is where your front and rear bike lights should come in. The spokelit was not created to replace bike lights at all but rather compliment them.

Not only are they a great safety device but they also look completely out of this world when people see them. I've gotten several compliments and questions on how neat they look and as to where I got them.

Overall, this product is a must have for anybody who wants to bike at... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Great visibility when you figure out how to turn it on, January 17, 2009
By 
RJD "Ronovan" (Coupeville, WA) - See all my reviews
I got two lights as gifts, took them out of the package, checked to see how to install them and didn't pay attention to "activation". The lights as shipped only light for 30 seconds so the batteries don't fail while in transit or on the rack.

Push and hold the on button for 10-12 seconds. The light will flash rapidly. Now when you turn it on it will stay on until you turn it off.

They make my bike really visible in night riding. I highly recommend these lights. Bright and easy to install.

5.0 out of 5 stars FlashFlight is Great Frisbee, May 2, 2007
By 
F. Foose (Ramadi Iraq) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this frisbee, so that me and my fellow soldiers here in Iraq would have something to at night other than work. I have had this toy for just five days, and we have probly logged over 15 hours of night fun. The light is bright and easy to see at night, with no noticable dimming within the first 15hrs. Due to the weight the frisbee flies great in the wind here. Quite possibly the best frisbee ever, and definatly worth the $$$.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cleverly named, well crafted disc, April 29, 2005
I picked up one of these flying discs just a couple of weeks ago. I have a green one, but they are available in red, blue, and multicolors as well. It's a well made American product---which makes this disc an easy choice over the competition---that flies straight and does not hurt to catch (at least with the hand).

After a few missed catches, a few collisions with trees, and landing in the road, the Flashfligh never blinked. It seems sturdy, unlike some other light-up discs that didn't last through a weekend.

The LED makes it easy to spot without being distracting, so catching the disc is easy and finding it, not a matter to be taken lightly during a late evening endeavor, is effortless (as long as the light is turned on).

5.0 out of 5 stars It really works, January 15, 2007
By 
I play ultimate a lot. The feel of this frisbee is excellent and the lights really work. They form sort of a circle when you throw the frisbee giving you a better target at night when depth perception isn't as good. I'd buy this frisbee in a hearbeat before I'd buy another glow-in-the-dark frisbee. We even bought a bunch of Tail Lights so that we could 'see' people at night. They work too! A whole different game!
