Six of the best bicycle commuting lights

Your guide to bicycle commuting lights

Let’s face it, we can’t hit the trails every day but that need not mean the bike stays rooted in the garage gathering dust.

Commuting on two wheels allows you to get valuable miles under your belt, even if it’s on road – and who wants to sit on grubby public transport or in a traffic jam?

But, in the dark of winter, it’s essential to have a good front light attached to the ‘bars and bright rear bulb affixed to the seatpost.

That said, there’s no need to run down your trail riding lights. No, save them for when it really matters. We’re talking lights that are built for around-town commuting.

So here’s our six of the best commuting light sets – kit that will ensure you’re seen on cold, wet and dark evenings but won’t break the bank, coming in at under 50 quid.
