Bontrager Ion 200 RT / Flare RT Light Set

The Flare RT and Ion 200 is a staff favourite bike light in the "TO-BE-SEEN" category. While they are not the most high-powered lights at 90 and 200 Lumens, they are the most visible, at a 2km range. They're sleek, compact, and integrate perfectly with Bontrager Blendr system for a clean cockpit on any Trek bike. 

If you need to see at night, our reccomendation is 450LM+ depending on the type of riding. We reccomend the Bontrager ION COMP (700LM) or ION PRO RT (1300LM) to help light up the trail in front of you.

If you want the most output on a rear light, check out the Lezyne Strip Dive (150LM) and Strip Drive Pro (300LM)

LIGHTS

If you only do one thing, do this. Using front and rear lights on every ride is an easy thing you can do to stand out to motorists on the road. But not all lights are created equal.

Opt For Hi-Vis Apparel

Visibility relies on contrast. Wearing brightly colored or fluorescent apparel and a hi-vis helmet helps you stand out from your environment so drivers have a better chance of noticing you out on the road.

Highlight Your Body's Moving Parts

Our brains have the uncanny ability to recognize other human beings. This is called “sensitivity to biomotion” and it’s the reason why you should always highlight your body’s moving parts when you ride - Use hi-vis socks or boot covers when you ride
