Lights

We’ve selected what we think are some of the best light options on the market. The lights we sell are either economical and effective like the Planet Bike and Portland Design Works options OR they are out-of-this-world bright and have cool features like the rechargeable Light & Motion or dynamo hub-generated Supernova models.

Light & Motion

Not only are these very bright and effective lights but they are also rechargable so the extra you spend on the initial purchase reduces waste. And the planet likes that.

Urban 180   An incredible value for a rechargeable, lightweight light. With 180 Lumen you’ll see and been seen. At 112 grams you’ll hardly notice the weight on your handlebars. With up to 6.5 hours of run time, you’ll have plenty of time to take the long way home. $100

 

Urban 550 So bright! 550 Lumen bright. This is the coolest, brightest, compact light we’ve seen – the rechargeable battery is integrated into the light.  It weighs only 112 grams and provides up to 6 hours of run time. Three modes, including blinking. Low battery warning light lets you know when you’re within 5-10% of capacity. Mounts on handlebars or helmet. Lithium-ion battery, recharge using USB cable. $160

 

 

The Vis 180° rechargeable LED taillight delivers an SUV sized output from a compact lightweight package. At 10 times the light of the most powerful AA tail lights, combined with brilliant amber side lights, the Vis 180° lets the cars know you belong on the road too. With a tool-less mount, locking mount clip for frame or bag, and convenient USB charging, you will never go back to a blinkie again. $100.00

 

Supernova Lighting Systems

Shimano Alfine Dynamo Front Wheel  This is a great option for those wanting to move beyond battery operated lights.

We have both black and silver (matching hubs/spokes/rims) 20″ and 26 ” wheels in stock.  $275

 

 

Supernova E3 High Powered Dynamo Light Besides looking pretty darn snazzy on the bike, the E3 blasts 370 Lumen of retina ripping LED light and works perfectly with the Alfine Dynamo.  What else makes this light worth the money? We keep pre-built Alfine Dynamo wheels in stock, so if whether you’re considering and upgrade to your new bike or a retrofit for your current bike, we can get you on the road with this superior system with a minimal wait. Features include:

For More Info

 E3 Tail Lights   A high-powered LED tail light that works in conjunction with your Supernova head light and dynamo.  The light comes from three high-powered LED bulbs that are wired directly in to the headlight.  This allows the 5 minute capacitor of the headlight to power the tail light for extra safety.   Not being satisfied with the mounting options of the E3 tail light, Splendid Cycles has built our own mount (pictured) that works on most bikes.  $70 

Planet Bike

The Beamer5 and Superflash from Planet Bike are our best-for-the-money recommendations for those on a budget yet still wanting bright, reliable front and rear lighting. The$30.00  Beamer5 headlight offers 5 LED bulbs and flashing or steady modes.The $27.00 Superflash taillight is visible up to a mile away. Both boast up to 100 hours on 2 AA batteries. Batteries and mounting hardware included.

Portland Design Works

If you ride in Portland, and ride year-round, fenders are a must. AND what a handy mounting surface they make  for this keen taillight, the Fenderbot. This bright LED light is embellished with a reflector and mounts directly to your fender. A great way to enhance your visibility. $28.00
