Good bike lights?

[J-Lo]

Hi all,

I'm needing a good set of front lights for my bike! I'm looking to spend up to £100 and want the best I can get, especially in regards to brightness.

The roads I go down are pitch black countryside lanes, so I'd like to see and be seen. Any recommendations?

Thanks in advance!
Jamie

Look on this part of the forum, or do a search on "Which light" - tonnes of stuff if you use the 'search' button.

T6 LED lights are cheap and powerful. Don't quite have the build quality of Hope or Exposure, but are cheap

Wot e said
xml t6 torches with a handlebar mount then xml bike lights are the cheapest followed by magic shine, build quality might not be as good as pricier lights but mines on its 3rd winter and doing fine .

Lights is one thing I don't scrimp and scrape on and I'd recommend that you buy the best you can afford especially if you're riding on unlit roads. I use the Lupine Tesla 5 as my main handlebar mounted light with the Lezyne Super Drive XL as my helmet mounted light.

I like to be seen but also see what's in front of me especially with the pothole ridden roads we have where I live.

Have a look here, I bought the Magicshine 808 and it is perfect for my needs, mostly town roads with a wee bit of unlit along the clydeside.
