Conscientious cyclists know that visibility is the cornerstone of safe riding, whether you’re riding on busy urban streets or remote wilderness trails. If someone or something can’t see you, the chances of an incident are greatly increased should you happen to cross paths. In addition to reflective garments, all cyclists should utilize bike lights.
The Blackburn Mars 3.0 Rear Flashing Bicycle Taillight is a solid light choice for cyclists looking to improve their visibility. Weighing in at just a quarter pound, this light has five bright red LED lights facing outward, while two amber LEDs on either side provide even more illumination from the sides. Featuring three modes — steady, flashing, and chase — you’ll get 50 hours of continuous run time on steady and up to 150 hours on flash and chase on two AAA batteries that come included with the light. Depending on your riding frequency, that adds up to a long stretch of light before you’ll need to change the batteries.
The Mars 3.0 will work on virtually any bicycle, as it comes complete with three mounting options: belt clip, seat post mount, and reflector/rear rack mount. No specific tools are required to mount the light or install batteries, which means you can be up and running minutes after you receive your light. Covered by a limited lifetime warranty.
This light usually retails for $18.99, but now through February 11, you can score the Blackburn Mars 3.0 for just $15.95. Don’t wait to place your order today!
