Visible up to 900 meters during the day: that's how the new Trek lights are

The Trek lights have been a reference for years and one of the most used and recommended models by cyclists themselves. Now the brand presents new versions of the urban lights Ion 100 R and Flare R City, essential for riding day and night.

New Trek Lights 100 R and Flare R City

The Trek Ion 100 R and Flare R City are two models designed specifically for the urban environment and now offer improved performance in all key aspects: longer battery life, faster charging via USB-C, better side visibility, and a more streamlined design.

The Ion 100 R has a white lens and green LED for the front light. And the Flare R City offers a red lens and red LED for the rear light.

Both models have increased their operating time by up to 28%, allowing for more hours of riding with a single charge. In real-world use, this translates to:

Additionally, the new lights feature an LED battery indicator that allows you to easily check the charge level (100%, 75%, 50%, 25%) before each ride.

Both models now integrate a USB-C port that allows for a full charge in just 2 hours, making it easier to recharge between trips or during breaks.

Both the Ion 100 R (front) and the Flare R City (rear) now feature side light windows to improve visibility at wider angles, especially at intersections. This is complemented by a redesigned housing that reduces glare and enhances aesthetic integration on any type of bicycle.

Studies cited by Trek emphasize that daytime running lights (DRL) are one of the most effective ways to increase road safety:

• Cyclists are 240% more visible with a DRL.
• There are 33% fewer collisions when these lights are used.
• 80% of accidents happen during the day, and cyclists are up to 700% less visible than they think.

The Ion 100 R and Flare R City lights are designed with specific flashing patterns, focus, and optimized range to stand out even under direct sunlight. In fact, their visibility reaches up to 900 meters in daylight conditions.

Both models are compatible with Trek's Blendr mounting system, so they can be easily and securely installed on handlebars, stems, seatposts, helmets, and fenders.

The official prices in the United States are:

• Ion 100 R (front): $39.99
• Flare R City (rear): $39.99
• Ion 100 R + Flare R City Pack: $69.99

The new Ion 100 R and Flare R City lights are now available on the brand's official website and through Trek's authorized dealer network.
