I had a problem with a Lumos Matrix. I wrote a mail without expecting anything. Lumos found a really good solution for me. That is remarkable and not usual.
The helmet is a live saver. I am riding bike and I have a lot of not amusing contacts with fast driving cars in the early morning and late evening. I use the helmet daily. The helmet makes driving bike more saver.
New helmet. ⛑️ luv it, bike as fixed solid lights. So the helmet lights & firefly’s are an adder bonus.
Before buying the Rear Turn Signal Mount I had my rear Firefly’s on the end of my drop bars.
I prefer my current arrangement. It is Really awesome, it was fiddly to attach it, I had to remove my seat to do it, but very well worth the purchase 😀😀. Thanks guys!
I own three Lumos Helmets now. My first is the original Kickstart, Second is an original Ultra. and now I have the E Ultra! All three are for the different seasons (such that they are now) here in the UK My new one is amazing but I might need to slip an edge on the visor coz i have a big beak! All three are brill though.
one of the challenges as an urban commuter is being seen over top of parallel parked cars from cars approaching from perpendicular side street. This helmet in green + lights is great! unclear that handlebar controls come with helmet so I ended up buying extra one when not needed. So clarity on "what is in box" on website would be helpful, but otherwise very pleased!
My second Lumos Hlemet. I feel you can not be safe enough as a cyclist and this helmet,not only fits well, it makes me feel extra safe and visible!!
Unlike a different Kickstarter bike helmet company that shall remain nameless, Lumos built a helmet with lights in a size other than one-size (i.e., medium). This is especially important because you need a lighted helmet more in the winter months, and you may need to stick an insulated hat under your helmet.
I chose "electric lime" color. The more passive visibility, the better, even with lights.
The helmet is easy to use. The switch goes beep when you turn it on and off (so you don't have to take it off). The charging is by USB-C. It is a single charging port (and single switch) for both front and rear.
I didn't bother with the turn signals. Sure, it's cool in theory, but there isn't much room on a helmet for left-right separation. You have to be awfully close to even see a blinker point one way or another, and at that distance, I'd rather just look the driver in the eye and confirm they know what I am about to do.
What would be cool is putting an accelerometer in the helmet, so it could flash at full power when it detects any kind of acceleration--braking, turning, or just starting off a light. No manual intervention from the rider needed.
Got my Lumos Firefly Rear Turn Signal Mount mounted today on the Varla Scooter. I had to cut the bump off to get it flat but it looks great.
I have a recumbent trike with a bontager rear rack. The mounting holes on the signal mount line up perfectly to the holes on my rack. Now my firefly lights are mounted on the top end of my rack,nice and high.
A great addition to my kickstarter helmet. Easy to set up and greatly increases visibility and predictability.
I have received the firefly mounts and no problem with it mount was easy.
I own multiple Matrix helmets (I love the look of both the white and black versions), along with multiple sets of the linkable lights. It's a great overall system for being visible from all directions, low on the bike, up to your head, along with a reliable, wireless turn-signal system. Moreover, I can confirm Lumos customer support is quick to respond and has always resolved any issues I've encountered.
Als Zweithalterung gekauft und somit lässt sich der Blinker schnell und unproblematisch an zwei Fahrrädern nutzen.
Die Qualität entspricht der Erstausstattung.
The helmet saved my head and my life in an accident. Thankfully he sacrificed himself for me. So I bought the same model again. Is there a better rating?
I am attempting to purchase a helmet. Unfortunately white color is always sold out. The process to purchase the lights and cradle is confusing. Attempting to find a contact telephone number is impossible. The product looks very appealing and I would like to purchase but the siite, availability and inability to contact customer support leads me to stay away…….
I had an accident. My kickstart helmet was damaged. I however, was not. The service team at Lumos quickly helped me get a new helmet and I am very happy with the helmet and the service.
I have been a devoted fan of Lumos since 2016 when I started using the Lumos helmet and remote. Once I purchased a set of Firefly lights my appreciation for Lumos'design and ingenuity soared. I ordered a set of handlebar inserts along with the Fireflies but one cracked within a few days of use and the replacement Lumos sent cracked as well. So, being undeterred, I ordered the saddle based mount. The mount is a solid two pieces of metal. No plastic. It is easy to mount to the saddle rails, easy to attach the universal holders and adjust their horizontal positions. It stayed rock solid in place during a test ride. Highly recommend it.
I just bought my third Lumos Kickstart helmet. I wish they didn’t wear out, but doesn’t everything? I sure use the heck out of these helmets with my average 100 miles per week of commuting. I rely on them to keep me safe on the street, particularly riding in the dark, especially in the winter. Love my Lumos helmet.
Compré un Lumos Matrix hace 3 años y luego de haberlo usado por 14 meses, el botón para encender el casco dejó de funcionar (al parecer por haberle entrado agua pues lo dejé al aire libre en un día que llovió torrencialmente).
Y como ya había pasado los 12 meses de garantía del fabricante pues decidí llamar al servicio de atención al cliente de la compañía Lumos y para mi sorpresa ellos tuvieron la amabilidad de reemplazarme lo por uno nuevo aún estando fuera de garantía y no habiendo sido el fallo por defectos de fabricación.
Estoy muy agradecido por este gesto y esto hace que como cliente me sienta muy alegre y solamente decir que ellos de verdad prestan mucha atención a los clientes.
Recomiendo mucho los productos de Lumos y la especial sensibilidad y gestos como este hacen que el cliente esté muy satisfecho!!
