LightSKIN LED - seat post


If you like your bike with a sleek, harmonious look there's no need to compromise anymore: LightSKIN is a seat post and tail light in one - and the new model is road legal in Germany according to StVZO laws. We reworked this model together with LightSKIN: the battery is now embedded into the seat post and rechargeable via Micro-USB. Removing the seat post is not necessary as the USB-port is located at the seat clamp. A charging cable is included.

The LightSKIN seat post has five bright, glare-free LED lights, which makes you visible from all sides. The two bottommost LEDs can be turned off and lowered into the seat tube, depending on your height and frame size, to save battery. A run time of 10 (5 LEDs) to 15 hours (3 LEDs) ensures many illuminated rides by night.

Durable, weatherproof, anti-theft - a compact and safe tail light with a stylish, minimal design.

  • five glare-free, high-performance LEDs
  • rechargeable via Micro-USB
  • Up to 15 hours run time
  • weatherproof
  • two bottommost LEDs can be switched off
  • weight: approx. 380 g
Price 79,00 € incl. VAT, plus shipping and handling

shipping options

There are two options for you to buy a Schindelhauer bike:

1. online purchase and delivery to a Schindelhauer dealer of your choice (euro zone only):
A preffered choice would be to have your bike delivered to one of our dealers at no extra cost. They set up the bike for you professionally and will have it ready for pickup by arrangement. During your online purchase process, you will be shown the option to select a dealer near you as delivery address.  

2. delivery directly to your home:
If you cannot find a Schindelhauer dealer in your area through our dealer search, you can also have your desired model delivered directly to your home. The bike is delivered almost completely assembled. As explained in the manual which comes with the bike, only the tires must be filled with the appropriate air pressure, the pedals and, if included, the frame-mounted front rack need to be attached, as well as the handlebars set straight.
