For every five or so dumb kickstarters, there is usually one gem. Take Sparse Bicycle lights for instance. They’ve created a set of commuter lights which seamlessly integrate into your frame, making it incredibly difficult for thieves to snag…and they’re beautiful!
We covered their kickstarter launch almost a year ago, when they raised more than 20k over their original 45k goal, and they are now shipping orders. Jump past the break for more about their cool products
The lights have not changed much since we first spotlighted them but they’re so cool it worth talking about them again.
The front light mounts directly under your stem. The rear of the aluminum case tapers down to the same size as a headset spacer and an additional stepdown spacer makes the 3 watt, 220 lumen, headlight compatible with both 1″ and 1 1/8″ steers.
The front light has a claimed 4 hour running time and comes with a 6ft micro usb cable for easy charging.
The 1 watt rear light (which is 30-50 lumens depending on how you measure) comes with three different spacers in order to fit the majority of seat posts on the market.
Front and rear lights retail independently for $64.99. You can pick up a front and rear set for $139.99. They’re available in three different colors – matte black, brushed chrome, and gloss white.
