Turn signal lights for bikes

Asked by: Jenn Mendez

Which light is best for bike?

Generally speaking, we’d recommend a minimum of 200 lumens for urban commuting and 400 lumens for riding on unlit roads. If you’re after lights for riding off-road on trails, you’ll need something brighter, with greater power and battery life.

Is 600 lumens bright enough for cycling?

If you’re riding on unlit roads, you’re probably going to want a front light that’s around 600 lumens as a minimum, but you also want to make sure that you’re not going to be dazzling any oncomers. When cycling on the road, it’s important to get a light that’s not going to blind any oncoming traffic.

What are the turn signals for bicycles?

Signal right turns by extending your right arm OR upturning your left arm. Signal left turns by extending your left arm straight out to the left. Signal stopping or slowing by extending your left arm straight down with your palm facing rearward. If riding in a group, point to and call out hazards to other bicyclists.
