Built by experienced riders for experienced riders.

Brake Free is a smart wireless brake light that mounts to the helmet you already own. No wiring, no app, nothing new to learn. Mount it, turn it on and get back to riding. The moment you slow down, Brake Free lights up so the traffic behind you knows it too.

The Problem

Drivers still don't see you

You've put in the miles and you know how to spot trouble on the road. Unfortunately not all drivers have your knowledge, skill and experience. We all know drivers are more distracted than ever, and on two wheels being seen a half-second earlier is the difference between a close call and a bad time.

The Solution

Make yourself impossible to miss

Brake Free has 100 ultra-bright LEDs at driver eye-level, right where they'll actually see it. Built-in sensors detect the instant you decelerate, no matter if you pull the brake lever, use the foot brake or just engine brake. Brake Free lights up and lets drivers know you're slowing down.

No wiring to your bike. No app to install. No settings to fuss with. Stick it on your helmet, hit the button and forget about it. If you can charge a phone, you can run this.

How It Works

Attach. Power on. Ride.

Three steps between "just bought it" and "ride seen."

Attaching Brake Free to a helmet mount
Step 1: Attach

Mount it in seconds

Install the included 3M VHB stick-on mount to your helmet, clip in the Brake Free and you're ready to go.

Step 3: Ride

With our patented software and sensors, we'll handle the rest. Ride knowing that any time you slow down, we'll let everyone know, and with IP65 weather sealing, it doesn't matter if it's rain or shine.

No Wires. No App.

Instant, accurate brake detection

An accelerometer and gyrometer inside the unit feed a patented detection algorithm that senses any time you're slowing down, no connection to your bike required.

Multiple Helmets?

Swap with ease

Attach a mount to every helmet you own. Moving Brake Free from one to another takes seconds, no tools, no rewiring.

3 Modes

Standard / Pulsing / Stealth

Choose the mode that fits your ride, from maximum visibility to a lower-profile stealth setting that still stretches battery life past 14 hours.

Built For The Ride

How will Brake Free help you?

Not sure if this actually solves a problem you have? Here's where riders tell us it matters most.

Daily commuting

Early morning commutes and the drive home after a long day both mean stop-and-go traffic, and everyone's mind is somewhere else. Brake Free helps make sure the drivers around you know you're there.

Group and club rides

Riding in a group, following riders can instantly see when the rider ahead is slowing down, no more guessing based on a taillight that's partially blocked by luggage or another bike.

Weekend rides

Whether it's a quick Saturday loop or a long solo ride out of town, traffic still isn't expecting you. Brake Free helps make sure the drivers around you know you're there, whether you're out for twenty minutes or two hundred miles.

Rain, fog and low light

Brake Free is bright enough to stand out on a sunny day, but it really earns its keep when conditions turn bad. Rated IP65 weatherproof, it's built for riders who go out no matter the forecast or time of day.

Multiple Bikes, Helmets, & Passengers

Put a mount on all your helmets and simply move Brake Free to whichever helmet you're wearing today. Different bikes? Nothing to wire up, just get on and go. Riding with a passenger? Move Brake Free to their helmet and you're ready to ride.

Vintage Bikes

Classic and vintage motorcycles weren't built with modern lighting in mind, and their brake lights can be dim, unreliable or nonexistent. Brake Free adds a modern, ultra-bright signal without touching a single wire on the bike.

Since our launch in 2020, we've improved the visibility of 55,000+ riders.

Would recommend it

If it stops one person from rear-ending, it's worth it. Even just a little engine braking will illuminate it, often indicating he's slowing down way before his brake light does.

I'm loving my Brake Free helmet light. I know cars stay behind me further now.
