Bike lights can set you back as little as $10, or as much as $350. The difference in price has as much to do with quality as it does production levels.

It was not so much a decision to commute to work, but a choice imposed by the fact that my car was stuck in a garage waiting for parts. Not that I was resistant to the idea - the only factor that had put me off was the time it would take and the thought of arriving in the office drenched with sweat.

A bike rack mount allows you to take your bike on the road, without pedaling. While bike shops can install bike rack mounts for you, here are some steps to do the work yourself.

When getting ready to install a bike rack, think about how often you will use this feature. There are temporary racks which can be used only as needed. If you travel a lot, then consider the top of your car for the final placement of your rack. This is a convenient, safe, and sturdy place to store your bike. Note too that the heavier your bike, the sturdier the mount will need to be.

A bike rack mount in your garage can help you reclaim space in this room. With a bike rack, your bike can be safely above your cars while still being accessible for your next biking trip.

Electric scooters (also known as PMVs or personal mobility vehicles) are an invaluable asset for those with limited mobility.

A tubeless tire can be a big problem when it becomes a flat tire. The tubeless tire is very popular due to its hard-wearing toughness, but it can be a serious pain if you happen to pierce it. Tubeless tires have been shown to be much less likely to deflate than a tire with an inner tube, and you are also saved the effort of having to extract that inner tube, which often involves a kind of wrestling match with the beast. However, if your tubeless tire has been punctured, it will slowly deflate until you are forced to repair it.

Replacing bicycle light batteries is largely a matter of the brand and model of the light, as well as the type of batteries it uses. While some bicycle lights use standard AA batteries, others require NiMH or Li-ion rechargeable batteries, or pairs of disc batteries. Different bike lights also have widely different methods for removing the casing in order to get to the batteries to be replaced. Batteries for different bicycle lights do not all have the same replacement frequency.

As opposed to a bike headlight, which is usually cylindrical in shape, a rear bicycle light is most often squarish or half-sphere shaped and smaller than its front counterparts. Because they are more compact than front lights, they often are too small to hold standard AA or AAA alkaline or rechargeable batteries, but not always. Some use micro disc batteries that are 1.5 volts each. Others use rechargeable Li-ion batteries.
