Brompton / CatEye Rapid Mini USB rechargeable saddle mounted rear light - including mounting bracket and recharging cable
In the middle of 2016, Brompton changed the design of their saddle. The stitching was removed to reduce chaffing and a small hole appeared underneath - ready for mounting a rear light.
Note: Brompton saddles made before mid-late 2016 time do not have the mount point and are not compatible with this light. You need the 2017 onwards model saddle for this light! |
New (for end of 2016) Brompton, in conjunction with CatEye have launched this saddle mounted rear light kit:
The Brompton / CatEye Rapid Mini has the following modes:
* Note: run times are approximate
The battery is charged using a USB cable (included) - accessed by lifting the red cover on the side of the light. When charging, the power button will be illuminated - this will go off when fully charged.
Fully charge the light before first use.
Charging time is approx. 2 hours
Brompton Q part code: QVSADRMINI
Brompton part number: 9002610

Not well designed
The light protrudes too far beyond the end ot the saddle and doesn't sit firmly enough in its mountingso is easy to knock off the bike. The USB charging is a gimmick and unnecessary - batteries are fine and allow longer life. I've replaced it with my old Cateye 5 LED light which sits about flush with the rear of the saddle. It would be better if the mounting were sold as a separate item.
