Just picked up my new Bulls today and it's a great bike with plenty of torque. Love the 27.5 wide 2.8 tires. Only one issue is the Monkey system front light. The little front reflector broke off while riding and seems to be a rather cheap built device. Not sure about actually putting a light on it. On a dirt trail things get jarred a lot. I'll be contacting my dealer about that but just wondering what other think.
 
Welcome the the site.
You could turn your bike in at the dealer for warrenty work for the headlight, but I wouldn't bother. You might be without it for a month.
I bought a 100 lumen C2032 battery powered light that wraps on the handlebar and it is 3 1/2 years old now. Sunlite Ion brand. 2 pairs of replacement batteries so far. Resists the rain very well.
I leave that one flashing at night and bought a cateye ampp 400 rubber wrap headlight for $30 to light the road. It is 6 months old hasn't fallen apart yet. the cateye is rechargeable through a micro-USB port.
6/19 I bought a niterider swift 500 light that I didn't like. You had to cycle through 8 functions with the one button to get it to turn on or off. I left that in the pannier since pedestrians sometimes steal lights off the bike. It went underwater & shorted out. Drying out didnt repair it. I keep the cateye ampp 400 in a plastic peanut butter jar now to prevent that from happening.

The dealer gave me a new Monkey front reflector that I will not install so it will last. The monkey system IMO is really a waste of time. The lights are expensive and if it falls of it's just too bad for you. If I couls remove the system I might. It's part of the seat post and the stem. Does anyone love the Monkey system or removed it?
