Designed and built for endurance gravel racing, the kLite Ultra V2 Race Lighting System is the perfect choice for when you want to go big. From lighting and powering athletes through the Kansas night to helping people take on big adventures like the Tour Divide / GDMBR, this lighting system is built to help you ride and race further. Compatible w the kLite QUBE rear flashing light (sold separately), for extra safety and peace of mind.
This is the best light in the kLite range for flying down rough roads at any speed. With its specifically selected optical elements it provides the best versatility, allowing you to navigate tricky sections of track when you need a wide field of view and also enough center punch to illuminate the gravel in front when you’re traveling at pace.

Built tough, and with charging key electronics in mind, this is a field repairable system that can be relied upon when you’re in the middle of nowhere.
Perfect for overnight and multi-day gravel racing and touring. Our riders rave about the performance of this setup on the Tour Divide / GDMBR, the TCR in Europe, Mid-South, and even on traditional rail-trail or road touring routes. One of the best things about the ULTRA race light is that you won’t outrun the beam when you’re bombing down a super quick but very dark 10 mile downhill. That’s safety in the design!

ULTRA Race Lamp: Wide 1,300 Lumen Triple Beam: 2x Spot, 1x Flood Optics. Intended for riding on jeep track and gravel roads, the Race model is equally at home on bikepaths, converted rail trails, and even on your potholed commute to work. The ULTRA Race uses spot beams on the two outside lamps to provide “down the road” lighting and it has a center flood optic to illuminate the immediate area around you and your bike. That way, you get a clear, upclose view of that racoon you just passed. It will work just fine on twisty singletrack, but if that’s your primary riding environment, you might want to check out our Adventure kit, since that lamp is designed more for the “through the woods” rider.
Below 13kph / 8mph (on a 29er wheel, slower on an 27.5), the ULTRA V2 boosts the power from the dynamo, providing dramatically more illumination than any other dynamo light at slower speeds. At 13kph / 8mph, the center flood beam kicks on to provide even more—with a boost of down the trail illumination. The unit also has capacitive storage which provides wide flood light in low power mode for up to 15 minutes without incoming power – ideal for hike-a-bike, on-the-trail maintenance, and a quick camp setup. When coupled with the kLite USB charger and kLite wiring loom, this unit provides a turnkey ultra-endurance platform designed to keep your electronics charged and you on the trail. Ships with a handlebar mount kit.
1300 lumen front light utilizing 2 x Spot and 1 x Flood optical elements
Standby mode when slow or stopped (up to 15 minutes) means you can always find your way or make camp.
The kLite low speed power booster is designed to provide more output power at low speeds than regular dynamo lights.

kLite MICRO USB Charger (rectangular version): Designed to charge your electronics while you’re “on the go”! The design of the kLite Micro is “in line”–meaning that the wire loom input is on one side and the USB-A output is on the other. It can be placed in your top tube bag or simply zip tied to your handlebars in a way that makes charging access convenient to you.
The device is waterproof, meaning that it can be used inside or outside of your bikepacking bags–provided you use a bit of dielectric grease (included) on the USB-A ports to prevent surface rust. Avoid using dielectric grease on the yellow friction-fit kLite terminals.
Built around universal compatibility, the MICRO works with 99.9% of dynamo hubs and with all key electronics like cache batteries, gps trackers, phones and lights, so its pretty much plug & play with any USB powered device.
Tiny form factor, perfect for storing in bags or zip-tying to frames or forks. Ships with a USB-A “Y-Connector” that allows you to simultaneously power your kLite Qube rear safety light while charging your critical devices.
2″ long by 0.5″ wide
Mounts on bars, stem, or frameset with two zip ties (four included) or can be placed in a bikepacking bag.
Has red indicator light that shows charging state
Rectified 5v DC USB output
1400mA Max power output (500mA typical / average)
Ships with a small tube of dielectric grease to protect your USB connections from the elements

kLite “USB ALWAYS ON” Dynamo wire loom with integrated lamp switch: The trail lamp and dual USB charger are connected by an “expedition rated” wire loom that provides a positive, waterproof connection to your dynamo hub. Toggle the switch on and you have lights and USB charging, toggle the switch off, and the lights are off and you have USB charging only. This “always on” USB functionality is perfect for endurance riders who need constant GPS charging and for those interested in the kLite QUBE–a blinking or solid rear or front/rear safety light accessory available separately. Do not use dielectric terminal grease on the yellow end connectors of the kLite system – these are waterproof by design and the use of dielectric grease here will make the kLite friction-fit connectors vibrate loose on the trail. Note that due to demand characteristics in the markets we serve, we do not ship the “Lamp or USB” loom with this kit – it is available separately.
Switch to dynamo: 31 inches
Switch to USB: 16 inches
Switch to Lamp: 8 inches—note that the ULTRA lamp has a connection that is 12 inches
Includes zip ties for mounting to stem or handlebar
