Description
Considering Cycliq vs Ripoon? Read our in-depth comparison: Cycliq vs Ripoon: Which Cycling Safety Camera Is Right for You in Singapore? — covering frame rates, night vision, build quality, waterproofing, and real-world performance on Singapore roads.
Reliable Road Protection Without the App Fatigue
The Ripoon Q101 PRO front bike camera dashcam and safety light is designed to work every time you press the power button. Built with a focus on hardware reliability, it eliminates the complications of buggy smartphone apps and unstable firmware — a dependable, app-free front camera solution for riders who want consistent protection on every ride. Ripoon is a cycling safety tech brand distributed exclusively in Singapore by Bikers.SG.
Why 60fps Matters More Than 4K
For road safety, frame rate is more important than raw resolution. The Q101 PRO records at 1920 x 1080p at 60 frames per second — capturing twice as many frames as standard 30fps cameras. This significantly reduces motion blur, ensuring license plates are readable even at high speeds on Singapore's expressways and urban roads.
Why riders switching from Cycliq choose Ripoon:
- The Cycliq Fly12 Sport records QHD @ 30fps — motion blur makes license plates unreadable at speed
- The Q101 PRO's 1080p @ 60fps captures twice the frames, keeping plates legible frame-by-frame
- Sony Starlight f/1.5 sensor vs standard CMOS — dramatically better night footage on Singapore's roads
- IPX7 fully sealed vs IP56 — no water ingress risk during tropical downpours
- GoPro-compatible mount vs Cycliq proprietary — replacements cost a few dollars, not a new device
- No app required — configure via text file on MicroSD card; no Bluetooth pairing, no firmware conflicts
- SGD $197 vs SGD $429 — save $232 without compromising on real-world safety performance
Optical Excellence at Any Speed
Equipped with a Sony CMOS Starlight sensor and a wide f/1.5 aperture with a 140° ultra-wide field of view, the Q101 PRO captures every detail of your ride, even in low-light environments. The Q101 PRO weighs just 110g and measures 82 x 44 x 28mm — compact enough for any handlebar setup.

Frequently Asked Questions — Ripoon Q101 PRO Front Bike Camera
My Ripoon camera lens appears foggy or has condensation — what should I do?
Due to the CNC aluminium metal enclosure of the Pro cameras, condensation can occur at the camera lens protection area when there is a significant difference between internal and external temperatures combined with high humidity. The dashcam body is fully shielded except for the ports, which means moisture can occasionally accumulate inside.
To resolve this, turn the camera off, open the TF card slot and USB-C port covers, and place the camera in a well-ventilated environment at moderate temperature to dry naturally. Alternatively, use compressed air to gently blow out the moisture. Do not use heat sources such as hair dryers.
What is the recording resolution of the Q101 PRO?
Full HD 1920 x 1080p at 60fps, optimised for high-speed motion capture to ensure licence plates are readable even at speed on Singapore's expressways.
Why 1080p @ 60fps instead of 4K?
Frame rate matters more than resolution for cycling safety. 60fps captures twice as many frames as standard 30fps cameras, significantly reducing motion blur. When you pause footage to read a license plate after an overtake, 60fps footage remains sharp where 4K@30fps is often smeared. This is the primary reason riders switching from the Cycliq Fly12 Sport (QHD@30fps) choose the Q101 PRO.
What is the default frame rate setting?
⚠️ Important Notice: The user guide currently states the default recording setting is 60fps. This is an error in the printed guide and will be corrected in the next batch. The actual default setting is 30fps.
The default is set to 30fps so that users get more footage, especially when their SD card capacity is limited:
- 30fps — approximately 100 files (5 min per video), totalling around 9 hours of footage
- 60fps — approximately 60 files (5 min per video), totalling around 5 hours of footage
You can manually change the frame rate in the camera settings if you prefer 60fps for smoother motion capture.
How bright is the Q101 PRO front light?
400 lumens — designed for high visibility in all conditions. Available in steady, smart, flashing, and off modes for daytime recording.
How long does the battery last?
Up to 5 hours of continuous recording with the safety light active, powered by a 3500mAh rechargeable battery.
Is the Q101 PRO waterproof enough for Singapore's tropical rain?
Yes. IPX7 rated with a fully sealed internal architecture — resistant to heavy rain, humidity, and mud. Designed specifically for Singapore's tropical conditions where sudden downpours are common.
What memory card does it support?
MicroSD cards up to 128GB. Uses seamless loop recording with Smart Incident Protection to lock footage during impacts.
How does the Q101 PRO differ from the original Q101?
The Q101 PRO is a significant upgrade featuring improved design, a larger 3500mAh battery, and enhanced mounting options.
Is the Ripoon Q101 PRO a good alternative to the Cycliq Fly12 Sport?
Yes — for most Singapore riders whose primary use case is incident recording and license plate capture. The Q101 PRO offers 1080p@60fps (vs QHD@30fps), Sony Starlight night vision (vs standard CMOS), IPX7 waterproofing (vs IP56), GoPro-compatible mounting (vs Cycliq proprietary), and no app dependency — all at SGD $197 vs $429. The Fly12 Sport is the better choice if you want Strava metric overlays and a polished app ecosystem. Read the full comparison →
