NiteRider Swift

The Swift 700 produces 700 lumens, which is plenty of light for urban commuting and well-lit bike paths. If you frequently ride on unlit trails or pitch-black roads, you might prefer a higher-lumen light with a wider beam pattern, but for general road safety, this is highly effective.

The flexible rubber strap is designed to accommodate most standard handlebar diameters found on road, hybrid, and commuter bikes. Because it is a stretchable strap rather than a rigid clamp, it offers a secure, vibration-free fit on various bar shapes.

The light features an integrated USB rechargeable battery, so you can charge it via any standard USB port or wall adapter. Battery life varies significantly depending on the mode you choose; using the highest output setting will drain the battery faster than the lower or flashing modes.

The unit is designed to be weather-resistant and can handle light rain and road spray without issue. However, it is not fully submersible, so it should not be used in extreme downpours or submerged in water.

Yes, the mount features a quick-release tab that allows you to slide the light off the handlebar strap in seconds. This makes it convenient to take the light with you when you lock your bike up to prevent theft.
