Lezyne Strip Drive Pro 400+ review: Fantastically bright light that holds securely and lasts well

Released as part of Lezyne’s big overhaul of its light range in 2023, the Lezyne Strip Drive Pro 400+ builds on the incredibly popular Strip rear lights by the brand. The new Strip Drive Pro 400+, as the name says, has a maximum lumen brightness of 400. It sits towards the upper end of Lezyne’s range of lights, only surpassed by the Laser Drive, and two Ai-braking equipped Alert 250 and Strip Drive Pro models.

The big selling points of the Strip Drive Pro are the 270˚ visibility, 80 hour battery life, and seven different modes for operating in a varied range of weather and light conditions. With that battery life and brightness, the Lezyne is a step ahead of many other rear lights that have featured in our buyers guide to the best bike lights without being exceptionally more expensive.

In fact, the price of £55 puts Lezyne Strip Drive Pro 400+ at the same price as our Best all-round Budget rear light, the Bontrager Flare RT, while featuring significantly more powerful specifications. The ladder strap also allows for fitting to traditional round seat posts or aero ones.
