How to Install A Powered Bicycle Light?
As any biker knows if you're riding at night a light is a must! In the tutorial I will show you how to install the a powered bicycle light. This light is perfect for the person who likes the vintage look but also likes a really bright light.

Step 1: Things you will need.
The Spiker 1207 includes a well-appointed kit, and this is obvious from first opening the storage case. Laid out the kit of parts consists of the Spiker 1207 light unit, battery pack, mains charger, handlebar clamp-mount, handlebar block and band mount, head/helmet mount, cap/clip mount, cable tidy strap, extension cord and instructions.
Step 2: Test the lights
This step is optional but I find its good to know that the bulbs are good. Just connect one end of the wire to the contact and touch it to the battery terminal then touch the bracket of the light to the other terminal.
Step 3: Install the bicycle light
Take the bicycle light and attach the mounting bracket to it with a nut and bolt and then attach it to the forks. Here the light is clipped into the clamp mount.
The other mounting options (starting top left and going clockwise) are the head/helmet band, block mount, the mounting bar that clips onto the head band and the adjustable cap clip (allowing the light to fit onto the peak of a baseball cap).
Step 4: Install the bicycle light on handlebar
The 1207’s mount has just enough rubber spacers to grip a standard 25mm handlebar and has plenty of capacity for oversized bars as well.
Step 5: Install the battery
Use the EVA foam to pad it at all from the cross-bar so it would not rattle and slide about during the ride.
Step 6: Connect the light wire to the battery wire
Connect the light wire to the battery wire so as to get enough power during the ride. Till now, you have already installed the bicycle light on your bike and enjoy your night riding.
