Double-O Light by Paul Cocksedge Studio Any biker who’s struggled with wraparound lights, or felt like a geeky raver due to inadvertently blinking battery packs, should appreciate this elegant solution to illuminated riding. Two magnetized rings of LEDs that attach to the front or rear of your ride, the Double-O offers a simple way to stay safe at night, and even fits inside a U-Lock. The satisfying snap of the neodymium-grade magnets lets you know they're working, and temporarily makes you feel like Magneto.
