You don't even need a flashlight designed for biking. Just get a sodacan style flashlight that holds 3 21700 batteries. Get a flashlight mount for your bike, and you're good. Those kinds of flashlights can be under $100 and outperform these. Those under $100 can reach 20k lumens and above if you are really interested in shining everything in front of you or blind people. Keep spare batteries in your bag, and you're good. Just know that flashlights with that kind of lumen do step down due to heat, but even mid settings are way enough for what you need to do.

Good test, very interesting. But not even mentioning Lupine lights? Yes, they cost a fortune, but I bought my first light 7 years ago and never had any issues with it, still running on the original battery pack. For trail riding, I by now use the Wilma on my handlebar with the Piko on my helmet. When riding together with friends, that combination nearly always outperforms any other lights. And since I have picked up road and gravel recently, I just bought the SL AF, which gives me more than enough light with 1300 lumens for gravel riding and offers street legal lighting once I am back on the road. Bonus point - I just had to buy the lamp itself, the battery packs are interchangeable.

Having done a fair bit of night riding I'd suggest If you only run one light, whether its spot or flood, put it on your helmet not your bars. Lights on the bars will throw shadows making it impossible to tell the difference between a ripple in the trail and a ditch. A head mounted light will shine light from above making it easier to see into trail features and around corners.

Hands up, I'm a roadie and only ride trails on my mountain unicycle (not at night yet, I'm not mental). I got the Lifeline Pavo Motion based on last years test to replace my Exposure Sirius. It's a bit of a lump for a road bike but on unlit Welsh country lanes it's awesome. I've done two 90-min rides at 0-2 degrees this week and it's still running full power off a single charge. The spread is huge, lighting up potholes and hedges way in advance, maybe too wide for the road as it pisses off a few oncoming car drivers but at least they know I'm there. Can't imagine anything better off road, especially for the price

How the Blackburn Dayblazer 1500 managed to make it on a 10 Best list I have no idea!!! Sure it makes 1500 lumens at startup but degrades below 1000 in the first 15 min and below 500 in less than an hour. The med. mode is more consistent but less useful IMO. Starts high but is below 500 lumens in less than 5 min. and slowly degrades for the rest of its total runtime making it totally useless for anything off-road. Mode runtimes look good but output levels degrade so rapidly that usable runtimes are poor at best. Add a hard to use mode button, single program UI that includes steady and flashing modes, and the same unreliable strap mount that came with the 1100 version (I tore one of my 1100 mounts and have already seen other tests that have had similar failures on the recently released 1500). Only good thing I can say about this light is that it comes with Gopro adapter.

Why no dynamo lights? Settings that are only possible to set through smartphone apps is a slow death sentence for the light unless free software.

No heavy light with a single sided mount is adequate in my book. Why I ditched NightRider lights.. were the best "inexpensive" option but were engineered to fall off..(/* The minewts were sick though.. had a pair wired on to the bars, just like my grips had been for many bikes.. Glad to see some new options though..)/* Gloworms are tits X)/*

cateye 6000 and lupine alpha 7200 the best.

It would be nice if the manufacturers provide the Lux value for their lights. Lumens is only part of the story.

Everything functions properly kzbin.infoUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L Nothing was damaged in the box aside from a decal on the fork. The decal was missing a piece of a corner but I ended up peeling them off anyways. Assembly is easy BUT make sure you tune up the derailleurs. Both the front and rear need adjusting. I'd advise going to a bike shop but I opted out and put in 10+ hours with the help of KZbin. Ended up fraying a shifter cable but all in all I learned from the experience. The Brakes work well but the front caliper needs adjusting or at least mine did because the rotor was rubbing against the pads. Make sure you swap out the seat, grips, and pedals. For the short run you'll be fine though. I've read that this bike isn't built yet for hard trails but I just need it for the city. PA has some of the worst roads and being in a mountain this was a great choice. Worth the investment!

You fell for the " higher number means more better" trick you can probably half the lumen claims and then still be too high compared to what they actually deliver.

Useless test for most riders, IMHO. Who will be able to spend hundreds of pounds/$/€ for a light on a bike wich costs ~1000 - 1500$.

The same people that spend thousands of pounds on a bike ... Most !!!
