OSRAM has expanded its product portfolio with the LEDsBIKE range, marking its entry into the UK and Irish cycling markets. The collection consists of three light sets, a standalone rear light, and mounting accessories. Each unit is equipped with a USB-C rechargeable lithium-ion battery, a low battery indicator, and a weather-resistant housing.
The EXPLORER X 500 SET provides a maximum output of 500 lumens with three power levels (100%, 50%, and 25%). The EXPLORER X 1000 and MULTI BEAM X 1000 sets offer up to 1000 lumens and include an automatic mode that adjusts brightness based on ambient lighting conditions. The MULTI BEAM variant further incorporates high and low beam functionality.
Terri Clark, Lighting Marketing Manager, stated:
“Our range of bike lights have been successfully sold throughout Europe for some time, but this is the first range that we are excited to launch to the UK and Irish markets. With so many people now using pedal power for their commutes or their extreme sporting weekend hobbies, these new bike lights are perfect for those target audiences.”
The LEDsBIKE X REAR standalone unit features a brake light function and a battery life of up to 17 hours. Mounting is facilitated by a Garmin-compatible bracket (LEDBLACC101) and flexible straps designed for handlebars ranging from 22.2mm to 35mm in diameter. All products in the range are supplied with a two-year guarantee.
Clark added:
“While we’re well known and have a fantastic reputation for bulbs in cars, motorbike and various other applications, creating a bike range was the next step in our lighting journey, and after undertaking extensive research, we’re proud to unveil it!”
