Portland Design Works Pathfinder/Io Headlight/Taillight

No, the Pathfinder headlight features a vertical cutoff beam pattern. This design directs light onto the path ahead rather than scattering it upward, ensuring you stay visible without dazzling others.

Yes, the Io taillight is designed for versatility. Its mount allows for both vertical and horizontal orientation, making it easy to attach to various seatpost shapes or rack configurations.

Both the headlight and taillight are USB rechargeable. You can plug them into any standard USB port, eliminating the need for disposable batteries.

At 200 lumens, this set is optimized for urban environments where there is typically some ambient street lighting. While they provide excellent visibility to others, they are best suited for city commuting rather than unlit, high-speed trail riding.

The steady flash mode provides a consistent light with a rhythmic blink, which is great for general visibility. The pulse mode creates a softer, breathing light effect that is less jarring to the eye but still highly effective at catching a driver's attention.
