Скачать или смотреть Fabric Lumasense V2 Smart LED Bike Taillight - feat. 100 lumens + Brake Sensor + USB Rechargeable

Although Fabric is best known for their innovative bike saddle range, they’ve applied many of the same design principles to their bike accessories. In this post, we’ll be looking at Lumasense V2, the latest version of Fabric’s Lumasense smart bike taillight. As with their saddles, the Lumasense V2 has a simple yet modern design and technical details that differentiate it from other tail lights on the market. When the Lumasense V2 senses deceleration, the light switches to the 100 lumen boost mode to ensure you remain visible. This is a smart feature that can improve riders visibility as they approach intersections or make sharp turns.

Fabric includes a simple plastic mount that attaches to round tubes with a rubber strap. The rubber strap feels thick and has a talon design with two hooks on one side and a single hook on the other for easy attachment. The mount has a two prong design that securely holds the Lumasense V2 in place. A groove on each side of the mount also allows you to slide the light side to side for more flexible positioning.

Fabric programmed the Lumasense with two steady output modes and two flash output modes. There is a high and low setting that have claimed runtimes of 8 and 15 hours respectively. There is also an irregular flash (the Disrupt mode) and a standard flash with claimed runtimes of 20 hours and 10 hours respectively. Fabric doesn’t publish the lumen output per mode, but in non-boosted mode, the Lumasense has a 30 lumen output. Based on runtimes, we suspect low mode is close to 15 lumens, while the flash modes are close to 30 lumens. With many tail lights exceeding 150 lumens these days, the 30 lumen output doesn’t sound impressive on paper but proved to be plenty bright on the road.

The COB LED design with a uniform grid of LEDs on a single board also means that the Lumasense V2 has a uniform glow that looks good during the day or night. Side visibility is particularly excellent as the lens partially wraps around ensuring you remain visible even at higher side angles. We preferred the irregular flash mode during our rides, and found the other modes less useful. Particularly, with the lack of mode memory with the Lumasense V2, this meant we often had to cycle through the modes to get to our preferred mode.

Overall, we found that the Fabric Lumasense V2 is a well designed and calibrated smart tail light. The lightweight and compact cylindrical design of the Lumasense V2 means it will easily hide behind your seatpost for a clean look. While the taillight mount can be rotated,it doesn’t have an offset to account for the angle of the seatpost and Fabric doesn’t currently offer a mount for aero seatposts. We found that the 30 lumen output worked well during both day and night, and that the 100 lumen boost mode during deceleration was an excellent way to attract attention. Note the tail light does lack a battery status anc like most USB rechargeable lights, it only has a low battery indicator. Nevertheless, we found that the Lumasense V2 is a competitive tail light with well-rounded features and premium build quality.
