I was really hoping the BR35 would be getting an upgrade soon, it's a few years old at this point. ebikes are booming so more and more people are looking for good lights since they can now go so much further and faster. I'm letting you all know now, make more bike lights and maybe even some helmet lights and you will get a whole new wave of customers
@@Brandon_Neil I agree with you. And maybe after getting feedbacks from the first gen over the years, they can revise or update the led, beam pattern, lumens, display, mounting system, etc. Or even make a simpler/lite version of this for city adventures because that's what most people are using it for nowdays. Especially because bike ride is booming in popularity right now and for the rest of 2021 They gotta grab this chance and make a move. Even if they don't update the options I mentioned above, I don't think current bikers wants to use micro usb anymore solely because it's outdated. People nowdays loves convinience, especially the non-enthusiast
@@Brandon_Neil I agree with the 2 x 21700 and USB-C. Really not a fan of embedded batteries as you will eventually have a nicely priced paperweight at some point. The LEDs will technically outlast the batteries so, being able to switch them out would be great. I would also like for Nitecore to research the European StVZO standard for bike lights and apply that certification for the next version of this bike light and any other future models.
I bought the UT32 recently and have to say it is really great. This video gave me some good ideas, so I attached it to my mountain bike helmet to light up my night outings. Love it.
Great light but I wouldn't recommend it if your handlebars are not small and round. I have search the web hoping someone has made some sort of an adapter. Nitecore needs to make adapters for different handlebar type eg: aero bars and garmin, wahoo, bryton mountings.
Am big fan of Nitecore flashlights(having 4 diff models!)-lol. Just searching now for bike light to attach to my e-bike. Think you got me again, Nitecore!-lol
Very informative video, the best video I found. It really showed the value of the light. One question what makes the 32 a better choice for a back up light than there TUP?
william mcguire for TUP, there’s no solid way to mount on the heltmet, and TUP brightness is capped out at 200 lumens. Plus battery smaller, so it wont last the duration of the ride.
Hi MJ, great video as always, can I use this Nitecore BR35 this on motorcycle? I'm thinking about use this in mountain / forest because main lamp in motorcycles not that bright.
great light , but the interface between light and clamp is very suspect,mine went flying on a roundabout got run over by a car ! very little damage light is very solid ! but back to the clamp what i did was drill a small hole though the clamp and through the rails on the light then put a split pin in , no more flying lights i did email nitecore and told them of this fault got a nice reply but light still sold with the dodgy clamp ,if you do the mod i suggest then this is one of the best bike lights out there ...........................zmf
The version you got was probably the version 1 clamps. They have this problem. Since then all the clamps have been fixed. You could go to your local distributor to request a replacement for the clamp.
Is there a bike light model specific for road bikes? I like this model but it's big and bulky. Not an issue with MTB users but for cyclists using road bikes a slimmer design would be ideal.
I saw this video and applied the promo code. It seemed valid and was reflected on the receipt, however I did not receive the free gifts. Email and FB msg to check but no reply. Can you advise me please? Thanks!
Hi, The UT32 looks great but I noticed the HC35 which seems even more powerful to me and needs to be able to illuminate a larger area. Do you think the HC35 might be suitable or is it too heavy to fit on a bicycle helmet? Thank you.
Way too heavy in my opinion, many of the guys buy it for pocket or handheld use. And it doesn’t have the distance you need when going at faster speeds on a bike.
Does the BR35 come with strobe mode or its just always on? I commute so visibility is vital and so is battery life. My current light doubles in battery life when I have it on strobe so I have always used strobe. Anyway I am looking to replace my current setup so the BR35 is on my list of potential replacement.

What can you suggest to improve on a product that already serves its intended purpose admirably?
@@sonicstep better battery pack such as 2x21700, an increase in output, a more neutral color temp for the led, update from micro usb to usb c

Yes we’re slowly changing all the micro usb products to usb C over the year.

Hopefully they will have a mount for Barfly used by Cateye or garmin.
Great video !!!
I'm a fan of cycling and all of that really inspires me to equip myself.
thank's
Glad it helped!
@@NitecoreSG update the light please
Nice video. U explained very beautifully and technically. Your English was very easy and simple
Looking forward a tail light for bicycle from Nitecore
Such a great review, thank you... you could have shown how the remote mounts though!? Maybe I missed that.
Jeremy Schwab yes i didn’t show how the remote mounts, quite straight forward though
@@NitecoreSG thanks, hoping my br35 arrives today or tomorrow so I'll check it out!

love this br35 been using it for more than a year now... only issue is i cant mount the remote on my bike handle....
thank you for review. i’m looking for a good bike light
Thanks. This is very helpful.
Awesome light!
They should have done more to shape the beam.
I prefer my Busch & Muller ixon iq premium. Just wish it had the power and high beam of the BR35.
Now that you just released a new compact bike flashlight, I think you should compare it with this and mention the differences
That’s in the queue 👍
what bike flashlight?
@@gosman949 Check their website. There's a newer one
@@aggaviriyo790 I did, don't see it.
Came here for added light for my electric scooter -was hoping to find usb-c recharge capable sonit uses same cord as a Samsung
Hola cual luz me revomiendas para bicicleta urbana Dahon Br25 o Br35?
You didn't talk about flash mode that we could all use during the day to warn oncoming traffic in the streets.
Super produit toujours sur mon VTCAE meilleur lampe que j est acheté part rapport a mes 9 autres
Looks a great light,thks.
Hi MJ, great video as always, can I use this Nitecore BR35 this on motorcycle? I'm thinking about use this in mountain / forest because main lamp in motorcycles not that bright.
When do you plan on updating this Bike light?
I am waiting for the version 2 or the newer and improved Nitecore BR35
Dam Solid bought two days ago.
great light , but the interface between light and clamp is very suspect,mine went flying on a roundabout got run over by a car ! very little damage light is very solid ! but back to the clamp what i did was drill a small hole though the clamp and through the rails on the light then put a split pin in , no more flying lights i did email nitecore and told them of this fault got a nice reply but light still sold with the dodgy clamp ,if you do the mod i suggest then this is one of the best bike lights out there ...........................zmf

@@NitecoreSG thanks for that my fix has been ok and I,ve had no problems with it since ,it,s a great light thanks again zmf
Sold me.
Does it come with a mount or adaptor suitable for aerobar (triathlon bike)?
Which is best for Bike Light. BR35 or BR 25
On road BR25, off road, BR35
Thx bro!
Is there a bike light model specific for road bikes? I like this model but it's big and bulky. Not an issue with MTB users but for cyclists using road bikes a slimmer design would be ideal.
There’s a BR25 coming out soon, can look out for that. Slightly slimmer
Does the br35 have a flashing mode?

@@NitecoreSG thank's for your prompt response.
Now I know I must take an UT32.
Will you be reviewing the new Nitecore BR25 bike light?
Yes that’s in the queue. Very soon
@@NitecoreSG Давайте прямо сейчас)), я думаю что мне купить
Awesome
Would you recommend a HC35 For bikings as a headlamp?
It’s a bit heavy and the beam profile is flood so you can’t see that far, I’d go with the HC33 over the HC35.
Does the BR35 come with strobe mode or its just always on? I commute so visibility is vital and so is battery life. My current light doubles in battery life when I have it on strobe so I have always used strobe. Anyway I am looking to replace my current setup so the BR35 is on my list of potential replacement.
there is a warning mode that does exactly that. SO yes it has a blinker
I wanted to know if you can run the light while charging? Like my NU25
Can’t, it doesn’t support that
Will it mount on a 35mm handlebar?
Yes you can adjust the pads to fit that. It goes up to 38mm
