Cateye Double Shot Pro
BikeRadar verdict
"Neat light/battery combo but too weak for serious off-road use"
A really nice looking light in a quality housing. The battery is small and lightweight, and both fit quickly and securely to the bike.
However, the quality of the beam from the light we tested simply wasn't up to the standard of others at this price point. Very 'pointy' and with a definite spot, the central bright area was small with a halo effect of dark and light rings around it.
It plays havoc with your eyes when you're dodging the trees and we really wouldn't rely on it for any sort of trail riding. But if you love the styling and are happy with the run time of that discreet battery then we'd keep it for well-lit commutes.
