Landing
The smart brake light that has your back.
Brake Free is a smart wireless brake light that mounts to the helmet you already own. With no wiring and no apps, simply mount it to your helmet and turn it on, we'll handle the rest. The moment you slow down, Brake Free lights up to make sure the drivers behind you notice.
Drivers don't see you
Motorcycles are small, and their taillights are even smaller. Drivers are more distracted than ever: phones, visual overload, short attention spans. You've felt it: a car creeping up behind you, not slowing down until the last second. On two wheels, being seen a second sooner makes all the difference.
Make yourself more visible
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. Attach it, power it on and it works.
Attach. Power on. Ride.
Three steps between "just bought it" and "ride seen."
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.
One button, done
Press the button to power on. A single charge gets you 8-12 hours of ride time.
Be seen automatically
With our patented algorithm 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.
Check your helmet in seconds
Search your brand, model and size in our fitment tool to confirm compatibility before you buy.
Check My HelmetInstant, 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.
Swap with ease
Attach a mount to every helmet you own. Moving Brake Free from one to another takes seconds, no tools, no rewiring.
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.
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.
Large Displacement Bikes
Big-bore engines slow you down fast just by rolling off the throttle, no brake lever required. Brake Free's sensors catch that engine braking and light up regardless, so the traffic behind you gets the same warning either way.
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.
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.
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.
Since our launch in 2020, we've improved the visibility of 55,000+ riders.
"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."
- Otto, verified rider
"I'm loving my Brake Free helmet light. I know cars stay behind me further now."
- Henry H., verified rider
