Commuter Bike LightsCycling to work all year round means that lights will be required at some point - the emphasis here is to be seen rather than seeing. Doubling-up front and rear reduces the danger from failing batteries and increases the chances of being seen.

Front Bike LightsSometimes they're for seeing and more often just for being seen. Get the best front bike light you can for the job you want it to do. For mountain bikers tackling the midnight trails and commuters just wanting to be seen - we all need them!

Rear Bike LightsCertainly essential for helping you to be seen by cars in the dark, rear bike lights are also advisable for use during day. The variety of rear bike lights available means that everyone should find one they like.

Bike Light SetsSelecting the best bike light set is hard because there are so many. We've put together a range of sets from various manufacturers which we believe tick all the relevant boxes for usefulness and appeal.

Back-up Bike LightsA set of 'spare'lights should be owned by all cyclists - for those days when your regular lights' batteries just get too low or when you've simply forgotten to take your lights - these little gems can be left in your bag for all sorts of emergencies. They might not be the brightest or the most expensive around but they will always get you home.

Reflective GearWhenever we're cycling on the road - either during the daylight or at night - we should always have reflective gear to help us be seen. Never give a motorist the opportunity to say 'I didn't see you'! There are plenty of reflective products on the market but simply remember that to be safe you must be seen.

Rechargeable Bike LightsLighting your bike for free (or at last minimal effort) has to better than buying batteries. The convenience of the supermarket can end up an expensive trip when you throw in a packet of Duracells - rechargeable lights are the way forwards!

Helmet-Mounted LightsIf you're a mountain biker who loves the challenge of the darkened trails, you'll know just how good helmet-mounted lights are. The long-distance cyclists will also know about the convenience of having an easily directed light source for seeing their maps in the dark lanes.

Dynamo LightsIf you fed up with the hassle of changing batteries or you don't like having to remove your lights every time you leave your bike, then you might consider dynamo lighting.

Long Distance CyclistsLong distance road riders who ride through the night demand a serious beam and a long run-time from their lights. Rechargeable sets are favoured with powerful head units and adjustable output; it can get very dark in the country lanes when there's no moon. But it's worth remebering that mountain bike lights are not the answer.

Mountain Bike LightsRiding trails in the dark demands serious lights with serious power. A range of manufacturers from Germany to Japan to the United States provide plenty of choice for those seeking the best view of in the forest when the sun goes down.

Occasional CyclistsEveryday Lighting Whether you just use your bike to go to the shops or for the occasional jaunt the pub you'll need reliable lighting that'll work when needed. We offer a range of dynamo and battery powered alternatives - suitable for everyones purse - that are perfect for occasional use.

Rowing Boat LightsFor non-rowers the prospect of propelling yourself backwards along a pitch black river bank in a long thin boat no more than a few inches above the water seems incomprehensible. Regular rowers, however, spend many hours in the winter months doing just this.

Micro Bike LightsGreat for back-up to your main bike lights and with a host of other uses, there are plenty of these powerful little lights on the market.

Fun Bike LightsThe lights in this section are just for fun and we don't suggest that they are for serious cyclists - of any sort. These are inexpensive bike lights which make great stocking fillers and are fun to have.

Bike Light BatteriesWhilst the Bike Light Shop does not currently stock the complete range of batteries for bike lights (most of those we supply come with them already), we do stock a few batteries which we particularly like .
