Commuters and everyday riders who want a compact, rechargeable front and rear pair that fits standard and aero bars and seatposts.
The Cobber Mini Light Set puts a front and a rear light in one box. Each light weighs just 22 g and throws a 330 degree beam arc, so you are seen from the side as well as from ahead and behind. The front peaks at 120 lumens and the rear at 75 lumens, with five modes on each light.
Both lights charge over USB-C (the cable is not included) and are rated IP67 waterproof. An integrated quick-release mount with silicone straps fits standard and aero handlebars for the front and standard and aero seatposts for the rear, so the lights move between bikes quickly. Button LEDs show the battery and charge status.

Mounting and charging
Great for
Maybe not for
The silicone straps come in small, medium and large and fit bars from 22 to 32 mm and a little more, and the front light also comes with an XL O-ring for mounting to a head tube. The rear light suits standard and aero seatposts.
Match the mode to the ride
Flashing modes help you stand out in traffic, while steady modes give you something to see by. ECO (front 30 lumens, rear 15 lumens) runs up to 75 hours, and HIGH lasts about 2 hours, so use ECO on lit streets and save HIGH for dark stretches. The front light also has an Eye Saver mode, which Knog says protects riders' eyes when the light is mounted horizontally.
