The newest top-of-the-line Flux headlight continues the Flux tradition of optimal beam pattern, wide variety of mounting options, and super rugged construction. Compared to the Flux 1200, the Flux 1250 increases lumens and runtime, throws in the helmet and camera-style mounts... BOOM!

Mode Shift user interface gives you three steady modes for just the right mix of lumens and runtimes to match riding conditions. Press-and-hold to enter the secondary modes, where you will find a Steady Flash mode for increased visibility in urban conditions, a Flash mode for daytime use, and 10 and 20 hour flashlight modes for bikepacking conditions, or when you forget to recharge and need to maximize the last few percent of battery life.

IPX7 waterproof means this light can survive being submerged 1 meter deep for 30 minutes. No, it's not meant for scuba diving. But is can handle anything you can throw at it on two wheels.

  • Sculpted double beam pattern uses separate optics for wide and spot beams to put light where you need it and maximizes every lumen. The result is a beam pattern that torch-style lights can't touch.

  • Latest CREE XP-L High Intensity LEDs combines XM-L level of output in a tighter 3.5mm package for maximum lumens with better beam pattern control.

  • Quick-release bar mount works on 22.2, 25.4, and 31.8mm bars to put the light above, below, or in front the stem to clear cables and computer mounts.

  • Also includes helmet mount and action camera style mount to give you every option to blow up the night.

  • Premium 3400mAh Li-ion internal battery is USB rechargeable via micro USB cable.

  • Depending on mode, up to an additional three hours of super-low output are available when listed runtimes expire. Trust us, someday you'll need this.

  • Steady High mode: 1250 lumens for 1:30 hours

  • Steady Medium mode: 600 lumens for 3:00 hours

  • Steady Low mode: 300 lumens for 6:00 hours

  • Press-and-hold to turn off, long press-and-hold to enter secondary modes.

Good light, bad mount.

Like other reviewers mentioned, this seems to be a poor mount. I still have the headlamp but the mount has fallen somewhere and the mount seems to be unavailable for purchase. If anyone still has the mount but lost their light, I will buy your mount.

Terrible mount ruins a solid light

Unless the mount is fixed, don’t buy. 2 rides, lost it 4 times. If I were in a group could be a safety problem, if I was out alone without a spare light, it’d be a safety problem. Sorry Spesh, but after riding with you since ‘89, I’m really disappointed for the first time in your gear. Will be returning it and going another way.

Poor Design

Great Light. Terrible Mounting Bracket. My first ride with this light, I rode over a small bump in the road and the light fell out of the mounting bracket. For the money, the mounting bracket should have been better designed. Do not purchase.

Weak charge port Bad design

I have had 2 of there’s lights. They work great till you need to charge them. The charging port is not good. After my first one breaking I was supper gentle when plugging in the charging cord. YUP ITS’s broken again There are way better products available.

Poor construction

I've had two of these, and both charging ports fell apart internally when inserting the USB connector. The first time it happened, I thought ok, things happen. My local shop exchanged it for me. Now, the same thing happened on the replacement. My shop will exchange it for me, but I think I will get a different brand.

Awesome light; poor mounting;

The light itself is fantastic. However, the mount is terrible. I hit a bump in the road, the $140 light fell off, and busted. Honestly the light isn't worth the money considering how poor the mount performs.

Terrible, popped out of bracket on small potholes

The bracket for this light is not fit for purpose, the light pops out and lands on the road when you go over normal depressions in the road like man hole covers, at speed. Dangerous losing your light on the dark and trying to fetch it in traffic.

A small bump and the light fell and it broke

I would expect the lamp at this price to be better attached and could withstand a small bump in the street. The lamp has fallen, and it no longer works.

Shoddy

The bracket that holds the charging cable broke. And the clip does not hold the light securely over rough bumps. Get something else.

Light works well, but unusable with GoPro mount

I've been trying to set up my headlight and bike computer on a single mount, and was thrilled to see this light which would work well with a combined computer/GoPro mount in front of my handlebars. Alas, it doesn't work. All of the weight of this light is in front of the GoPro mount, which is a friction mount. Every significant bump in the road makes the light drop. I've cranked the screws as tight as I could without breaking something, and added friction compound, but to no avail. It's simply not possible to attach this light using the provided GoPro style mount unless you want your light pointing at the ground constantly. It may work wonderfully with regular handlebar or helmet mount -- check the other reviews. Just don't try to use the GoPro mount.

Poor fittings

The light it’s self does a good job. However the fitting is terrible. Several times I have had to retrieve the whole light and fitting from the road. After a while it just comes loose. Unless you find another way to attach this to your bike stay away. Currently as we speak it is not on my bike as it came off on the way to work.

Right, let’s start with the

Right, let’s start with the attachment. There are three different options which is great, but all of the are a bit larger than the light body, coursing it to rattle a bit. Battery wise I must say it’s good but the battery indicator light doesn’t work as intended. Both units I have show the battery below 10% when I clearly have more than 80% left. It must be a chronic problem as both my lights have the same issue. When it comes to looks, it’s quite a nice unit and it doesn’t take much space.

Specialized Flux Light

The positive about the Flux is that the light is great, the negatives are that the clamp it attaches to is not robust enough to hold the light in place when going over bumps/rough ground. Its reduced in price for a reason!

Secondary light

Well built with wise securing options and relatively easy to change light intensity on the go. However, the big shortfall is the reach of the spot light that could do with more depth to the point I would rather use it as complementary light not the main one.

By far the best light in the game!

Owning the flux 1250 since 3 months now. I use it 3 times a week during NIGHT mtb rides in the woods. Verry bright ligt with a good battery life. Sidenote: I see in the reviews that there are problems and that the light came off. You have to make sure that it clicks at the top and bottom when placing it. Even when I ride the downhill track, the light stays in place.

Great light

My wife and I have this light on our bikes. It works great in the daylight and at night. It can be hard to get out of the mount for charging, but properly clipped in it will not fall out of the mount. To make charging easier I bought six foot charge cables and I plug them into the wall socket that has USB ports. I do not need to remove them from the mounts now. Super easy and foolproof.

I would buy it again yes...

I have the 900 version on two bikes mounted with the GoPro Adapter it only dropped once cause I didn't press it correctly into the mount... it had some scratches on but still works very good... I ride about 40km every day in the week also in winter... the 900 works about 2 hours... I bought the 1200 version also to get more time till umhabe to charge it again but seems to be empty faster? Riding the 900 I use only the 300 lumen mode with only one lamp on... maybe this is the matter why it takes longer to get empty? In the Traffic of the City it is sufficient to use only on lamp... cause of many other lights around, it is necessary to be seen not? I will order the1250 version to try and maybe write another review...
