Lux describes the beam on the road; lumens only describe the bulb · review
A budget set with a front light with six modes, a rear light with four, an aluminum body and an IPX4 rating, with no lumen figure in the bullets.
Our conclusion Fine as a cheap second set, and not a replacement for a proper front light.
The Victoper is close to the Ascher in price and in purpose. The differences are an aluminum body and more modes.
Six front modes, four rear modes, aluminum alloy, IPX4, USB charging, a total weight of 4 oz and a size of 4.17 × 1.89 × 1.04 in.
Not much. Most riders use one steady and one flash setting. Extra modes add button presses at night. A battery indicator or a clear runtime is more useful, and this listing does not offer that in its bullets.
This is a good spare to keep in a bag or put on a second bike. For regular riding after dark, spend a little more on the Magicshine set, or on the NiteRider if the road is unlit.

The listing calls it super bright but names no test method. We would not rely on it alone on unlit roads.
Six on the front light and four on the rear.
