Have two rear lites currently in use but nice to have a lite up a little higher in line of sight. Bright lite works just fine. Was concerned about users who feel that the lite wasn't a good fit but I use the latest Giro helmet and while it is snug on the helmet I've still put two ties around lite and helmet to ensure I won't lose the lite.
Really like the positioning of this light, up high where it is, hopefully, more visible. Fits on the helmet (2022 Eclipse Spherical) firmly and leaves the adjusting knob easily accessible. It's probably a good idea to double check that you have the correct helmet. There seem to be a lot of minor variations in the roc-loc system over the years.
Love how this light integrates with the helmet. Being short, it puts a flashing light at eye level for most drivers. I also have a flashing light on my bike. I want to be seen.
I love having this light. It's big and visible. I recently did a charity century ride. When I finished the ride and got back to my car, it was still flashing when I took it off. That was nearly eight hours of battery life, and who knows how much longer it was good for.
I have the Giro Syntax helmet with Roc Loc 5, but this item will not securely attach.
What a disappointment. I'll be contacting customer service to return it which I really wish was not the case. It's very bright and I was looking forward to the extra level of visibility to others.
Just a bad design for securing it to the helmet. There were no specifications other than a Giro helmet with Roc Loc 5.
It will fit Aether Helmets. Bought 2 Aether helmets & 1 light. I would not fit on my wife's helmet but would fit on mine with a loud click. the defect is in the Rock Lok system. Hers is a few millimeters thinner than mine. So upon another reviewer's review he Velcro'd the light to the Rock Lok 5. I did the same.
Thank you Anonymous!

The Giro Aether has Roc-loc 5 but it is apparently a different (light) version of it and this light does not fit securely. I love the idea so I am actually using Velcro to attach it to the helmet, at least until the days get longer.
This is a nice light but it only truly fits the Roc Loc 5 that has the soft rubbery adjusting wheel. My Roc Loc 5 has the hard plastic adjusting wheel and I had to use two zip ties to tie it to it's intended location. Just check your adjusting wheel on your Roc Loc.
I bought this light because it was compatible with my Giro Helmet. However, the first one I received proved to be defective and I had to return it for exchange. The replacement has worked well so far, but we'll see how it is over time.
With the right helmet fits perfect
