Market: The innovative bicycle lighting from the premium brand Supernova is now available from Magura Bike Parts. The complete product range of the Freiburg lighting specialists will be integrated into Magura's existing service concept. Supernova thus benefits from broad market access and Magura's service network.
Magura Bike Parts GmbH & Co. KG is expanding its portfolio of partner brands with the bicycle lighting manufacturer Supernova. The Freiburg company was founded in 1997 and was able to quickly establish itself with innovative products. As early as 1998, the Freiburg-based company launched the Supernova halogen double headlight, followed just a year later by the Supernova Xenon P92-D headlight with 10.000 volts. New developments appeared almost every year: in 2001 the first MTB LED headlight, in 2004 a multifunction headlight with a lithium-ion battery and in 2003 the first standard dynamo headlight, the Supernova E3. The range has been expanded to include many other products over the years - and even today the premium bicycle lighting brand is not idle.
The most successful battery headlight from Supernova is the Airstream. The successful balancing act between LED cooling and protection of the battery testifies to the high level of engineering of the Freiburg company. The Airstream has been built almost unchanged since 2010. The 165 gram light Airstream 2 comes with StVZO approval and offers 205 lumens of brightness. Depending on the dimming level selected, the lighting duration specified by the manufacturer is up to 14 hours. The LED matrix headlight M99 PRO was specially developed for electrified cycling - this allows the electronics to communicate with modern e-bikes, among other things. The ECE-compliant lighting has a 1.600 lumen automotive high beam and a low beam with 1.100 lumens.
Magura and Supernova are pursuing the same goal: to make safe mobility and cycling even safer and more comfortable 365 days a year in any weather and at any time of the day or night. Magura Bike Parts GmbH is now offering the innovative products from the Freiburg lighting specialist throughout Europe. This gives Supernova very broad market access, and another advantage is its integration into Magura's service network. As part of the partnership, there are also joint development projects. The first result of the collaboration benefits the rear light Supernova M99 Tail Light: The brake light is activated by a brake light switch in the brake lever of the Magura MT5e before the braking effect occurs.
