NIGHT RIDERS
Ditch the neon spokey dokeys, because after-dark cycle safety has seen the light – lots and lots of it
THE MAIN EVENT
Lumos Kickstart Helmet
If you’re a cyclist who’s forever jealous of cars, what with their fancy indicators and brake lights, Lumos’s helmet may be for you. It features 48 LEDs and is Bluetooth-connected. When you slow down, the red LEDs at the back light up, making you more visible to cars behind. There are indicators too, triggered using a handlebar-mounted button device or gestures (by way of hand signals on the arm wearing your Apple Watch). Strava and Apple Health integration are also included. The range-topping Kickstart comes with MIPS (Multidirectional Impact Protection System) for an additional layer of safety.
