Light recommendations

    I'm looking to pick up a front light for my road bike. With the evenings getting darker I want to get something good as I'm on a lot of unlit roads.

    There's loads of options on Amazon around £20, does anyone have any recommendations before I pick a random one?

    Cheers

    Halfords have a good one for around 50€ - you will need to spend a bit if you want to light up roads, most cheaper lights are more for being seen than allowing you to see on completely dark roads

    That’s the one I have, it’s 1600 lumen, you can put in on 250 which is perfect for road use And it will last over 9 hours.

    Aldi have their bike stuff in next week. They have front and rear lights which are absolutely excellent. I bought them last year, they’re significantly brighter and better than the Leyzene 450XL front light and rear strip light I had before. I’ll be buying another set of them this year to have as spares.
