Illuminating Your Ride with the NiteRider Lumina 900 Boost

NiteRider has a massive range of lights, but the Lumina 900 Boost is the perfect light for all types of riders.

Lights moving when you’re riding is a thing, and it’s annoying. The NiteRider Lumina 900 Boost comes with a proven design that’s a handlebar strap mount. It stays in place solidly, almost no matter how you ride.

Polar Bottle Breakaway Insulated Bottle

The Polar Bottle Breakaway was created in Colorado by cyclists. It will keep your liquids cool twice as long using its Tri-layer insulation and radiant heat reflective technology. 

Insulted often means that it’s bulky, but as this was designed by cyclists, it has no trouble fitting into most bike cages and includes a high-flow, self-sealing Surge Cap for spill-proof transport.

The high-flow, self-sealing cap means that it will maximize your flow rate when you want it, and when you’re done taking a drink, it’s going to self-seal to eliminate any spills or splatter (you know the ones I’m talking about, the ones that splash onto your legs as you’re riding?).

Cleaning the Breakaway is super easy. The cap is in two pieces, cap, and valve, and operates on a twist and pull system so you can get full access for cleaning. Everything is dishwasher-safe, too. 

Frankly, it’s the ultimate bottle, and I love it.

Key Features

• Fits into bottle cages
• Keeps your drinks cooler for twice as long
• Easy to clean
• Maximized flow rate
• No unwanted splashes
