Bikelight Recommendations

[cathy liang]

I have used Gaciron’s bicycle light, KIWI-1200, and I like it very much. It has Bluetooth remote control and power bank function, and also has an anti-glare cutoff line design. I like this light very much. It is small, cute and exquisitely made.

My favorite light overall is the Laserlight core – you have to order it from the UK, but it projects a super-cool laser image of a bicycle in front of you.

I also like the camera combo Fly 6 Gen 3 and Fly 12 Sport lights from Cycliq. These both have USB-C charging, which is great. I use a Corki out front mount to hold both my Garmin 1030 bike computer and the Fly12, and the Cycliq saddle rail mount to hold the rear light in place. The velcro straps and rubber divots that come with the Fly6 failed multiple times for me – but the extra saddle rail mount is super solid. I also have a Don Peregrino rear light as a backup – USB C rechargeable also, super light and durable.

The Lumos helmet is great, and even has turn signal and brake light capabilities. I prefer having a 1000 lumen light strapped to my helmet too – Sadly Light in Motion is out of business, I’ll have to find another manufacturer for the next one I buy.

I ride at night at least as much as I ride in the day, so having triple or even quadruple redundant lights is really important for me.
