Theft-Deterring Bike Lanterns

The Sparse Bicycle Lights are Extremely Hard to Steal

The Sparse bicycle lights illuminate your path during your bike ride in the dark.

The front light attaches on the stem below your handle bars and the rear light slides onto your seat post. This makes it so the LEDs are nearly impossible to steal without having to take the entire bike apart. They are made out of die-cast aluminum so that they can withstand the rain and contain a lithium battery. An included USB cord charges the battery that lasts up to four hours.

Each of the Sparse bicycle lights are able to switch between three modes. Either on, off or blinking for the front and on, off or automatic for the back. These handy bike lanterns are a Kickstater project by Colin Owen + Sparse.
