    Looks like an expensive joke. Fine for commuting with streetlights but you could do as well for a fiver.

    The Flare rear light is a very good and very bright light, with a strobe, or constant option. Cooldad is right about the front though... No good for MTB uses.
    Buy the Flare cheaper from Wiggle/ CRC, etc, make sure you get it with rechargeable cells, as they're brighter!

    I've got a Red Eye, which is basically a Flare that plugs into their front lights.

    It is VERY bright.

    They're great for dusk and for being seen, can't see anything with the Flash though, no good for proper night riding.
