Daytime - In daylight it’s recommended that your run both your front and rear lights in the brightest flashing mode which will gain the most amount of attention from other road users and provide you with optimal road safety.
Nighttime – Running your front light on a steady mode is recommended as it provides you with clear visibility of what is a head and at the same time isn’t distracting to other road users.

2. How do I choose the right chain lube?
Choosing the right lube is just as important as lubricating your chain. The are a number of different types of lube that can be broken down into two categories Wet and Dry. Wet lube is best used in wet environments, when it is raining, muddy, or if there is any chance your drivetrain might be getting wet. It is thicker, stickier, and provides more protection than dry lube perfect for those winter mountain bike rides. Dry lube is best for dry conditions and is intended for summer use and can be used on road, mountain or ebikes.
