Details matter when buying a bike, especially ones that are hard to change or upgrade later. The good thing about e-bikes is that they always have lights. The bad thing is, if the lights are of bad design, then you will always have bad lights, because they are inegral to the design of the bike and wiring system. Fortunately the Slice has pretty awesome lights.
Rear Light
As mentioned before, the rear / side light on the Slice Lite is great. It’s bright and consistent, and it wraps 270 degrees, meaning you will be seen from the side. There are no modes, it’s solid on all the time – no flashing. It’s also intelligently positioned so your legs don’t interfere.
Front Light
The front light is really good. The pattern, brightness, beam width, and height are great. Here are a couple of pictures taken about one car length away from a wall. At that distance, the main focal point is similar in height to a car’s headlights. I haven’t measured the light output, but based on my experience, it’s probably around 550-650 lumens. This power output seems very appropriate for city riding. If you were in a rural area with no street lighting, a power of 800-1200 would be better. The current light could easily be augmented with a handlebar light.
