The Nights are getting longer – Be Safe, Be Seen!

Now that the sun sets a bit earlier – it’s a great time to think about riding with lights so you can see and be seen by other traffic! It just makes sense and we are very pleased to carry a bunch of great lights to meet the needs of a wide variety of cyclists. Whether you commute each evening or find yourself on the Minuteman trail at 9pm – we’ve got a light for you!

Most lights now a days are rated in Lumens. The lumen can be thought of casually as a measure of the total “amount” of visible light emitted from some source. The higher the rating – the brighter the light. Here’s a spectrum of the lights we offer.

FRONT LIGHTS

Lezyne Femto Drive : 15 Lumens,  A front safety light for $15.00

Knog Blinder 4 : 80 Lumens, visible up to 800 meters.

Serfas Thunderbolt : 90 Lumens, An awesome NEW light that we are highly recommending for the daily commuter!

Light & Motion Urban Series — These are all very powerful lights that will show you where you are going, giving you time to react to the potholes and paraphernalia on the path ahead.

  • Urban 200: 200 Lumens. Wow bright is now affordable!
  • Urban 400 : 400 Lumens.  A more expensive light – USB rechargeable that can last on high power for 1.5 hours.
  • Urban 550 : 550 Lumens. The light to take at night in the woods. Anything stronger would need a separate battery pack!
