Front and Rear Lighting

Being seen from both directions matters more after dark than anything else.

Reflective Shell Elements

Headlights catch reflective panels at the height drivers are already scanning.

Head-Level Beam Position

A light on the helmet points where you look, not just where the bars aim.

Battery for Both Legs

Riding home after dark needs light left over once the morning trip drained it.

Clear Visor or Shield

Bugs and cold air hit the eyes at night, and a dark lens makes seeing worse.
