This Anti-Theft Bike Light Is Built Into Your Cycle Like a Car Headlight

You can burn through a couple hundred dollars’ worth of fancy bike lights a year just by leaving them unsecured on your ride. London-based designer Anirudha Surabhi Venkata is attempting to solve this problem with the Lumineer, a device that’s built into the handlebars like a single, swell-looking car headlight.

The 300-lumen contraption is a “bike light no one one will notice, until it matters,” Venkata writes on Kickstarter, where it just met its funding goal. “It seamlessly blends into your bike’s sleek, sturdy frame.” The light is not just hard to snatch, requiring a thief to take apart the bike’s front end, but has a rugged, water- and crash-resistant aluminum composition.
