THE DANGER WINDOW
The deadliest hours start at 6 PM.
In the U.S., more cyclists die between 6 and 9 PM than in any other three-hour stretch of the day. That's the commute home, the ride back from practice, the evening loop. Most of those rides start in daylight and end in the dark. You can't choose when the sun sets. You can choose whether the driver behind you knows what you're about to do.
- 52%of U.S. cyclist deaths in 2024 happened in the dark
- 26%of weekend cyclist deaths happened between 6 and 8:59 PM
- 1,103cyclists killed on U.S. roads in 2024

ONE TAP. EVERYONE KNOWS.
Your next move, lit up for traffic.
Hand signals vanish in the dark and cost you a hand on the bars. Beacon's wireless remote mounts to your handlebar. Tap L, R or the arrow and a bright dotted signal lights up on your back, right where the driver behind you is looking. Try it:

THE LIGHT KIT
Beacon shows your turns. The Light Kit covers the rest.
Drivers also need to see you brake, and you need to see the road. Add a headlight and a smart brake light to your backpack for less than buying them separately.
HeadlightLights the road so you see potholes and lane edges, not just get seen. Up to 400 lumens, USB-C charging, handlebar mount included.
$49.90 on its own
Smart brake lightShines brighter for a few seconds when you slow down, so the driver behind sees you braking as well as turning. Switches on by itself in low light.

GOOD QUESTIONS
Before you ride out.
Here's what riders ask first.
What's in the Light Kit?
One Beacon backpack with its handlebar remote, plus a rechargeable headlight with handlebar mount and a smart brake light with seatpost mount. Together they cost less than buying them separately. Like every order, it also gets the free pair of mini safety lights.
How does the signal work?
Mount the wireless remote on your handlebar. Press L or R and a dotted arrow lights up on the back panel in that direction. Press the arrow key for straight ahead. Drivers behind you see your next move without you lifting a hand off the bars.
Can drivers see it in daylight?
Beacon is built for the hours that matter most: dusk, dark and gray, rainy commutes, when its LEDs stand out the most. In bright midday sun any LED looks less striking, so keep riding predictably and signal the way your local road rules require.
How long does the battery last?
Up to one month on a charge, depending on how often you use the signals.
Does it replace hand signals?
It gives drivers a clear, visible signal, especially after dark. Keep following your local road rules, including hand signals where they're required.
What fits inside?
18 liters of everyday essentials such as a laptop, a jacket and a water bottle, with multiple pockets to keep them organized. It measures 48 x 31 x 17 cm.
Are the mini safety lights really free?
Yes. Every Beacon order includes a free pair of mini safety lights, white for the front and red for the back, added to your bag automatically at no cost. They are separate from the headlight and brake light in the Light Kit.
When will it arrive?
Shipping is free. Orders ship within 2 days and arrive 7 to 10 days after you order. The dates under the Add to bag button always show your own dates for today.
What if it's not right for me?
You're covered by our 30-day money-back guarantee. If Beacon isn't right for you, email support@ventrafinds.com within 30 days of delivery with your order number. We'll send return instructions and refund the price you paid once the backpack is back with us.
