While the bright sunny evenings of late have our minds far away from the perils of winter, now is often the best time to prepare for the clocks going back.
That's because bike lights are often reduced at this time of year and at their most expensive in autumn time, when the shorter nights and time change bring them into demand almost overnight.
With that in mind, we’ve scoured the web for the best deals on our award-winning bike lights for those who want to be ahead of the game this year.
All of the lights in this list have impressed our team of expert testers, so we’re sure you’ll love them too.
Knog Blinder Pro 1300 – £99.99 £65.95 (save 34%)
The Knog Blinder Pro 1300 is our best overall front light, winning praise for its small profile and quality feel.
It pumps out 1,300 lumens with a powerful central beam and good peripheral illumination, making it excellent for nighttime navigation.
With over £34 savings at Biketart, the Blinder Pro 1300 is currently in bargain territory, though this is likely to change as the nights close in.
Magicshine Ray 2600B Smart Remote – £146.25 £117 (save 20%)
The Magicshine Ray 2600B Smart Remote is our best performance front light, impressing with its long runtime and bright beam.
With 2,600 lumens, the light is bright enough to tackle mountain bike trails when the dark sets in, while the 1hr 15min runtime should mean you get a decent ride in.
It currently has 20 per cent off at BikeInn.
Lezyne Strip Drive Pro 400+ – £55 £39.99 (save 27%)
Our best overall rear light is the Lezyne Strip Drive Pro 400+, thanks to its easy usability and power.
It has seven modes with a flashing output of 400 lumens, which helps keep you seen from much further down the road.
At £39.99, the Strip Drive Pro 400+ represents great value, and we’d advise using it all year if you’re riding on the roads.
Exposure Blaze Mk3 Reakt + Peloton – £130 £110 (save 16%)
The Exposure Blaze Mk3 Reakt + Peloton is our best performance rear light, with a premium construction and focused beam impressing us in testing.
There are plenty of standard modes, and this model includes the Reakt mode, which combines a brake and ambient light sensor to keep you seen and save battery.
Exposure’s lights are quality items, and seeing them discounted isn’t too common.
Sigma Buster RL 150 – £25.70 £17.99 (save 30%)
The Buster RL 150 is our best cheap rear light, and it packs in some impressive features.
It pumps out 150 lumens and has an accelerometer that can sense when you’re braking and increase the brightness for increased visibility.
We found the light lives up to its four-hour claimed runtime, and were impressed by its original value.
It's currently on sale for £17.99 and would be a great addition to your seatpost.
