Best vision when cycling at night, dawn and dusk

Two bike specialists - uvex the Fürth-based bike helmet manufacturer and Lupine the LED lighting experts from Neumarkt - have teamed up to develop the optimal solution for solidly anchoring a helmet light. Every model in the uvex supersonic lx helmet range comes ready to mount the Lupine Piko U3 lighting system.

The powerful, yet lightweight (55g) Piko U3 power LED lamp from Lupine can be securely attached to the uvex supersonic lx helmet. Silicon spacers offer easy adjustability, while resisting vibration and movement, to guarantee the best lighting in your line of sight, when riding. A key element of safe cycling. Each uvex supersonic lx helmet comes supplied with a peak for optimal ventilation.

The Lupine Piko U3 offers multiple, programmable lighting modes, for different conditions and requirements. Operating at the highest level of 8 Watt, with the remarkable output of 550 lumens, the battery lasts for up to 2.5 hours. At 0.5 Watt, the lowest level, the battery lasts for up to 50 hours. The battery can be attached to the helmet using a special adapter. For rider who prefer to carry a larger Lupine battery in a bag or jersey pocket, perhaps on a long tour, there is a professional grade extension cable available. Like all Lupine lights, the Piko U3 is compatible with all sizes of Lupine battery.

The uvex supersonic lx helmet costs € 129.95, while the matching LED lighting system, compatible with this helmet only, the Lupine Piko U3 costs € 265.00. Both are available in stores now.
