But we tested one that we found will only give you 20 minutes of riding time from this emergency charge, and another that was just under 40 minutes - it's worth knowing which these are if you have a long journey home. I like the very clear and simple battery gauge, the fact that it charges with USB-C and the split clamp mounting system can be transferred between bikes without tools (although it isn’t as quick and easy as Knog’s system on the Blinder 900).

That means it’s time to dust the mudguards off, wrestle those gatorskins back onto your rims, and, perhaps most importantly of all, invest in a quality bike light to guide you safely through the darkness. You can concentrate on the road conditions more and then look down when it is appropriate to do so, having been alerted by the bleep. Still, despite being nominally only 850 lumens, it brightens the way better than the Knog Blinder and is arguably on a par with the Trek Commuter Pro RT - though PDW does have a very different beam pattern.

This recess is a little too narrow and the rubber a little too stiff to hold it tight against a standard seatpost. Truly powerful front lights may even feature an external battery pack that will also need to be accommodated on the bike. Legally, bike lights may be steady or flashing, or a mixture – for example, steady at the front and flashing at the rear. I’m looking for something that will attach when my GPS unit is being used as well as when the light is the only thing on the mount. Being an O-ring, it’s hard (for me, impossible) to remove the light without removing your gloves first.

I would recommend any StVZO front light made for ebikes (to be powered by the bike battery), especially from one of the big brands as mentioned upthread. It might sound a little excessive, but we found that it did genuinely make commuting easier – particularly with a train journey splitting up the riding and consequently having to turn the lights on and off twice as often. For some people cableless charging is a must-have deal breaker - for me, I prefer USB-C and the flexibility of a cable. There’s an interesting battle between which is brightest out of the Magicshine Allty1000 and the Exposure Strada Mk11 RS.That said, a quick charge time, 360 degree viewing angles and the lightweight formfactor still makes this a potential option for some riders. Fortunately, there is a mode which sees the three center lights stay constantly lit, but the bright outer ring blinks in a sequence.
