The lowdown: It’s that time of the year again when you’re riding home in the dark on your bike commute. A rear light is important for safety. I have a Carbon Comfort bicycle seat, which takes a RideOut Technologies Urban Touring Bag. The bag also has a safety light built into the rear panel of the bag. What’s cool is that it’s a fixture on the touring bag and you don’t worry about it falling off, like with other rear lights that clip to your bike.

The details: The Urban Touring Bag can hold a wallet, car keys, cell phone, money and credit cards. I have mine packed with a bike lock and tire inflator with a CO2 cartridge and bike tool. The Urban Touring Bag may be purchased separately or in combination with Carbon Comfort bike saddles.

Cost: $27.50.
