Trace Velo - Wierd AliExpress Bike lights…

AliExpress is a great place to find cheap bike lights, and here are a few weird and quirky ones I've found recently.

Admittedly AliExpress does have a bit of a reputation for cheap rubbish, and some of the bike lights in this episode definitely fall into that category. A pair of bar end lights I bought broke on me pretty much straight away actually, but there is definitely one hidden gem in the bunch I use ALL the time.

It’s a pair of cycle gloves that provide a light up turn signal whenever you stick your hand out to indicate and make a turn. They look very cheap and tacky, but are in fact INCREDIBLY useful.

In this episode I’ll also cover the front and rear bike lights I use, because they have some great features. For example my front bike light is incredibly bright, and has both high and low beams, just like a car.

And lastly I’ll show you some iron on reflective strips to add to your cycle clothing.
