BikeRadar verdict

45 out of 5 stars

"Cool good looks and a well-balanced power/spread combination"

It's an indication of the advances in LED technology that single LED lights are now of such high quality.

Like the Exposure Joystick, the MiNewt has a more powerful beam than you'd expect, with a clean tone and broad spread that's easily good enough for charging round your local trails all through winter and into racing next summer.

We're always a bit of a sucker for sleek good looks too, and happily all this performance is packaged in just the most compelling shape we've ever wanted to snap onto our bars. The battery pack sits neatly against the stem with the on/off switch housed on that, rather than the light. That can be a hassle, but since the pack is in easy reach it's fine, and the low-power warning appears on both the lamp and the battery. Finally, there's a cable extension that allows use on a helmet. Great design, excellent performance - yes please!

    The picture in this review is not a niterider minewt.

    I recently bought the minewt usb from wiggle under 80 bucks, very simple very small light. No flash but quality built with tiny lithium battery and lights up the whole trail, amazing. Maybe not as much as a racer wants but if you just want to see were you are going its the bogs b's.

    massive upgrade on your usual commuter stuff.
