How Turn Your Flashlight Into A Bicycle Light
2
I have been riding my bike for exercise for over
thirty years.
3
Since I live in Texas, during the hotter months
of the year I sometimes ride after sunset because
it is cooler.
4
For my personal safety I make sure to have a
bicycle light on my bicycle.
5
Rather than purchase a bicycle headlight at the
bike store that permanently mounts onto my bike,
I have simply used a flashlight that I have at
home and have attached it to my bicycle
handlebars.
6
Doing this is very easy to do.
7
This process is as simple as can be and only
takes literally a few seconds to do each time you
want to go riding at night.
8
Besides having a bicycle with handlebars, and I
have never seen one without them, there are only
three other things that you will need to install
this bicycle light.

Three Steps To Turning Your Flashlight Into A
Bicycle Light
10
First, you will need a bright flashlight.
11
Since I sell the Viisliam Deluxe 4-In-1 LED
Flashlight on Amazon, using this flashlight is a
no brainer for me.
12
It is made of anodized military grade metal and
is therefore, sturdy, lightweight and water
resistant.
13
Being nine inches long and one and a quarter
inches wide makes it a good size for this
purpose.
14
If I have a flat while riding at night the work
light function provides all the light I need to
be able to see exactly what I am doing as I
change the tube inside the tire.
15
And if the need arises, the emergency flashing
strobe light could be used to alert others to my
location as needed.
16
It is really the perfect multipurpose
flashlight for me to have with me when I am
riding my bicycle at night.
17
The second thing that you will need is a small
length of old rubber bicycle tube.
18
A two inch length will do just fine.
19
You simply take this bit of rubber tube and
place it on the handlebars of your bicycle and
then place the flashlight on top of it.
20
Doing this allows the rubber piece to act as a
buffer and prevent potential scratches occurring
on either the handlebars or the flashlight.
21
The rubber piece also helps to keep the
flashlight from sliding out of position as you
ride your bike.
22
And the third thing that you will need is a
strong rubber band or rubber wristband.
23
Once the flashlight is in position with the
rubber piece on top of the handlebars and the
flashlight on top of the rubber piece, you simply
put one end of the rubber band or wristband
around on end of the flashlight and then stretch
it so that it can go around the other end of the
flashlight so that it is held tightly in place.

Flashlight To Bicycle Light Is Simply 1, 2, 3!

You see, turning your flashlight into a bicycle
light is as easy and one, two, three!
