Learn how to install and use Banwood Bike Lights on your child's bike. Step-by-step guide for front and rear LED lights with safety tips.

Quick answer

Install Banwood Bike Lights in minutes using the included silicone mounts — no tools required. Position the white light on the handlebar facing forward and the red light on the seat post pointing backward.

Why proper mounting matters

A light that shifts during a ride can point away from traffic, reducing visibility. The Banwood set uses stretchy silicone bands that grip tightly when placed correctly — but they need a clean, smooth surface to hold.

Avoid mounting over textured grips or thick frame padding, as the bands may slip. Test the fit by giving each light a gentle tug after installation.

Step-by-step installation guide

  1. Mount the front light: Slide the silicone band around the handlebar near the stem. Position the white light so it faces straight ahead, then stretch the band over the light body until snug. Common mistake: mounting too far to one side, causing the beam to point off the road.
  2. Mount the rear light: Wrap the silicone band around the seat post, about 2 inches below the saddle. Attach the red light so it faces directly backward. Ensure the band sits on bare metal or plastic, not on a reflector or bag strap. Checkpoint: the light should not wobble when you tap it sideways.
  3. Choose your mode: Press the button on each light to cycle through steady, flash, and pulse. For daytime visibility, use flash or pulse. For dark trails, steady mode gives a constant beam. Reminder: turn off lights when not in use to save battery.
  4. Test before every ride: Press the button briefly to confirm both lights are working. Ask your child to sit on the bike and check that the beams are not blocked by their body or the basket. Make it a habit: a quick button press takes two seconds and prevents riding unseen.
