Magicshine SEEMEE300 bike light review: Incredible battery life, packed with features, and one neat trick that makes it the best rear bike light on the market

Rear bike lights, more so than front, have seen little change over the years. LED bulbs have replaced filament ones, but when the chips are down most rear bike lights simply shine a red light straight backwards in an effort to make sure distracted motorists notice you. 

Smart features are now pretty frequently seen, with the likes of the Exposure Boost-R offering brake lighting and ‘Peloton’ mode whereby it dims when it detects a rider behind you so as not to dazzle them. The Knog Cobber range opts to curve a panel of small LEDs around the light body, greatly increasing side visibility, and here, in the case of the wonderful Magicshine SEEMEE300, we get a LED bulb pointing not only rearwards but downwards too.
