BBB Scope 1500 light

BBB’s Scope 1500 is a good no-nonsense helmet light if you’re clever with your run time rationing. As it’s designed primarily as a head light, the twin LEDs create a very focused round beam with an impressive long-distance reach that’ll shame a lot of more powerful lights in high-speed use. The narrow beam and sharp edge can be eye-tiring on more technical terrain, and while a bar mount is included, it’s best saved for simpler trails. Amplified effective brightness means you can make more use of all four power levels than on most similar lights. With no battery indicator and not much over an hour’s run time at full chat in the cold, you need to be conservative on longer missions. The price is also slightly high for the basic design, but the Scope we’ve been running since last year is still going strong. Weight 310g Run time 1h 20mins Price $330

BBB Scope 1300 Lights

While the BBB lighting range is predominantly aimed at the commuters, the Scope 1300 is pitched directly at the MTB market. The kit comes with both handlebar and helmet mounts and they claim a 1,300 lumen output from the twin Cree XM-L LEDs.

BBB AquaShield winter gloves

SO GOOD The theme here is definitely warmth and the BBBs are oven-like in that department. They're extremely waterproof too and the elasticated cuffs further seal in the heat. The AquaShields also walk away with the coveted award for softest snot wipe on test. At this price, they represent great value too.
