Lighting for ultracycling

17 March 2022
-
Academy-en-Stage 1

When it comes to long distance, and therefore this is even more the case for ultracycling and BikingMan, you will spend hours on the bike with a high probability of finding yourself out there in low light. Therefore, it is crucial that you are properly visible and have yourself the best possible visibility to continue to ride on in complete safety.

In this tutorial, Axel will walk you through the different lighting solutions for ultra-distance so you can determine which is the best solution for you and your bike, whether it’s battery-powered or dynamo-powered lighting.

Once again, lighting is a key part of your equipment that absolutely must not be neglected because it affects your safety. It is therefore to be taken very seriously and to leave prepared and well equipped, ready to face the darkness in the best conditions.
