In this product category you will find everything you need to light up your way during a night bike ride. MILITARY.EU relies on proven brands of led bike lights and well-known flashlight manufacturers, so you can be sure that the equipment we offer will not let you down when you least expect it. The best lighting companies such as Olight, Nitecore, Mactronic, NiteIze and Petzl are a guarantee of reliability and safety during your bicycle travels. Remember that good bicycle lighting is essential, even during the day, as it signals your presence on the road to other road users. Using the right bicycle lighting kits, you are always sure that drivers, motorcyclists, pedestrians and other cyclists will notice your presence and react early enough to your maneuver. Adjustable light intensity is a very important feature of a flashlight for a cyclist. If you are cycling on brightly lit streets, you don't need to use the full power of your led bike light, as this can blind drivers. Adjusting the power is also of considerable importance if you are planning a longer, multi-hour excursion into nature and plan to return after dark. Daytime driving on a lower mode will save battery power for the return when the sun has long since set. It's also a good habit to bring spare batteries or rechargeable batteries. You can find them in a separate category of our online store.
Bicycle front lights mainly come as dedicated bicycle lights or as versatile handheld flashlights that you can use successfully on a daily basis. It's up to you whether you opt for a typical bicycle light or prefer something a little more versatile. You can also use a classic handheld flashlight at home and at work, and install it on your bike when you ride. On MILITARY.EU you will also find mounts for popular pocket flashlights, which you can thus turn into lights for your vehicle. Bicycle front lights should have high power when you are quickly traversing a dark forest, and weaker modes that you will use during the day on the road. When riding on a bicycle road, it's also a good idea to have a light running, as this improves your visibility and therefore your safety.
Rear bicycle lights should be characterized primarily by red color, which clearly indicates your direction of movement and informs drivers and other traffic participants of your presence on the road. It is worth having it on not only at night, as it significantly affects your safety. Another important feature of a bicycle rear light is the availability of light modes. It should have the possibility of constant, continuous illumination and at least one or two additional modes - flashing. Ease in selecting specific settings and quick access to individual functions are the main advantages that good bicycle lights should have.
If you are looking for an alternative, something more versatile, in addition to classic bicycle lights for the rear or front, you may be interested in headlamps. Headlamps come in handy both when camping and during an unexpected breakdown on the road, whether on a bicycle or in your car or motorcycle. A good quality headlamp will also come in handy at home when the power goes out. This is one of the most versatile devices that should be on the equipment of the cyclist, survivalist, forest camping enthusiast and driver. A head flashlight should definitely be included in your bicycle lighting kit.
If you often ride your bicycle in urban conditions, for example, commuting with it, the best option is a bicycle light as a set of two lights - a front white one and a rear red one. It is worth choosing models that offer the possibility of recharging without removing the equipment mounted on the bike. Such conditions are offered, among others, by Olight brand flashlights, which charge through the included power supply. Bicycle led lights use little electricity and are economical, but using the most powerful modes, you can drain any battery, even the most capacious. In summer, when night comes late and the sun shines brightly in the sky for most of the day, a sizable group of cycling enthusiasts forget to take proper lighting on their bikes. It's a mistake that can often be seen late at night, when a trip out of town is unexpectedly prolonged. Coming back in the dark, "invisible" cyclists can pose a danger to themselves and other road users, which is why it is so important to take lights with you on every trip, even the shortest. Regardless of your destination, type of bike and weather, always have a good quality flashlight or light with you. Take a look at our range of bicycle accessories.
