Great head light, bad tail light.

The headlight is super bright, and the blink feature is great for the daytime. Installs easily, but you might need to use pliers to make it tight enough to not move. The tail-light is almost useless though. Can hardly see it on a bright, sunny day. It's so small, that during the night drivers will misjudge the distance to you. Has a VERY loose braket on a topeak bike rack. Not a great item for bad city steets.

The RedLite UFO taillight is superb; lots of ways to attach
to yourself or bike, although it did break the plastic clip
that attaches it to the Topeak BeamRack when I hit a curb too
fast. Not a big deal, though, I usually ride with it on my pack
anyway.
The front light is not super bright. It's bright enough for
riding on the street, but probably not enough for a long trail
ride. This is more of a "very good backup light"--it'll get you
home. I have ridden trails at night with it; might get better
results with it attached to helmet?
It's good to be seen.

The Topeak HighLite Combo HPX Bicycle Light Set makes an excellent starter set for any bicyclist. The headlight provides excellent visibility to motorists as well as provides good illumination of the roadway ahead for the cyclist. The tail light with its near 360 degree LED lights helps a cyclist be seen by motorists approaching directly from the rear or perpendicular to to the cyclist.
