6 of the best helmet lights

KNOG PRW RIDER 450 DUO

286.99 www.silverfish-uk.com

SO GOOD... For its 450 lumens, the Knog packs a decent punch. The diffused white beam has a good spread that helps pick up the edge of the trail. It also reaches a moderate way into the distance. Brightness and burn time are programmable. Fit the red end-cap and you've got a 12-lumen rear light; remove it and you can recharge other devices.

NO GOOD... The beam lacks a bright spot in the centre to highlight trail features. Paired with the low lumen count, that makes it the hardest light here to ride with at speed. The helmet mount lacks padding and needs a tool to fasten it tightly enough.

LIGHT & MOTION VIS PRO 1000

£134.99 www.freewheel.co.uk

SO GOOD... L&M's VIS Pro 1000 is compact, and attaches to its mount via a secure GoPro-style fitting. The wide beam picks up the edges of the trail. There's a low battery warning light, plus an auto shut-off to prolong its usable life on the trail. It's claimed to be waterproof to 1m, so should shrug off the hardest downpours.
