We’ll admit it: Riding a bike can be a little more gear-intensive than other recreational activities. While bikes open up the world and allow you to see things and gain experiences that are only available on two wheels, they also break down and get stolen. And the longer you’re out, the more stuff you’ll want to carry to stay fueled, hydrated, and dry.

However, if there were a time to get geared up for the long haul, it’s during Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days—a second act to July’s Prime Day. Some of our favorite bike locks, bike bags, bike lights, and repair tools have incredible discounts, which you can take advantage of through today, October 9. While you’re perusing the selection, check out our guides to the 101 bike maintenance tips every cyclist should know and the best winter riding gear for help with packing a suitable repair kit or choosing which apparel to stash in your bike bag.

Our test editors have either tested each of the following products or used a similar model from the same manufacturer, so we’re able to confidently back these picks based on our own real-world experience. We’ve cut bike locks, tested the brightness of headlights on a dark night, and used the same multitools for years on end. We also factored in long-term customer reviews from trusted retailers’ websites to ensure these bike accessories hold up to months and years of daily use.

Your jersey pockets can only carry so much, or maybe you’d rather not ride with a jersey altogether—either way, time to shift your essentials to the bike itself. Taking must-haves like phones, keys, wallets, and repair equipment off your body allows more freedom of movement and comfort while also preventing you from being impaled (!) or bruised by your stuff in a crash.

For a stylish bag just big enough to carry a phone, wallet, keys, and a spare tube and mini pump, we like the Topo Designs Burrito Bag. You can mount it to your handlebar or saddle using the adaptable daisy chain webbing, while the recycled nylon stands up to abrasions and harsh weather. For a little more space, try the brand’s Bike Bag Mini, which also features a water-repellent exterior.

If you’re looking to bring a little more gear—say a packable jacket, food, or extra fluids—then try a frame bag like the Blackburn Outpost. It comes in three sizes with capacities of 3.5, 5.8, and 6.95 liters and features a water-resistant construction complete with welded seams. It also has a hose port to allow you to run a water reservoir or a charging cord out of the bag while keeping it zipped up. You can even increase the size of the bag by unzipping an additional compartment at the bottom.

A saddlebag is an ideal place to keep your repair kit, but many allow your stuff to rattle around and bang up against your saddle rails every time you hit a bump. For a snug, silent, and low-profile solution, try SpeedSleev’s Ranger Adventure Pack. It’s just big enough to pack a spare tube, tire levers, CO2 canisters, and a multi-tool. Once filled up, the pack shrinks down to the size of its contents as you wrap the hook-and-loop strap around your saddle rails. It also comes in orange, red, and white.

Riding with front and rear lights is essential at dawn, dusk, and after dark, and even a daytime visibility light can help catch drivers’ attention. Modern bike lights feature long-lasting, rechargeable lithium batteries, and some pack more power than your car’s headlights. These are our (on sale) favorites for safely riding on- or off-road after dark.

The NiteRider Solas 250 is a bright, reliable taillight with a maximum output of 250 lumens—enough to be seen from hundreds of feet away in fading light. You get four modes—fast flash, pulse flash, steady high, and steady low—with the steady low mode boasting an impressive 40 hours of battery life. (Higher-powered modes like fast flash and pulse flash yield about 4.) There’s also a group ride mode designed to be less distracting to riders directly behind you.

The Garmin Varia RCT715 is the safest tail light you can buy. In addition to a 65-lumen LED light with solid and flashing modes, it features a rear-facing radar and a camera that’s constantly recording. The radar connects to most bike computers to alert you of cars closing the distance to your rear wheel from more than 150 feet behind you, sending you flashing lights, an audible tone, or both when a vehicle is approaching. Meanwhile, the camera can sense a crash or a near-miss and automatically save footage recorded before, during, and after the incident.

Your bike is so cool, other people wish it were theirs. Unfortunately, some people act on such impulses, so a bike lock is essential for anyone who wants to leave their bike out in public for a matter of minutes or hours. While no lock is 100 percent thief-proof, you can scale up the security for the situation. Here, we’ve included some of our favorite models for a variety of riding styles.

The Kryptonite Evolution Mini-7 Bike U-Lock with Cable is the gold standard of protection for your bike. The U-lock is robust enough to withstand attacks from hand tools and some power tools, while the cable lock is there to keep a would-be thief from detaching and running off with your wheels. The U-lock comes with a mount for attaching it to your seat tube, and the cable lock can wrap around the shackle of the U-lock or store in a bike bag.

For a similarly sturdy lock that keeps a lower profile on your bike, check out the Abus Bordo Granit XPlus 6500. The folding metal bars are nearly a quarter-inch thick, so they should be capable of warding off most hand tools. A plastic coating prevents the lock from scratching up your frame, and the whole thing folds into a compact rectangle and mounts to the bottle cage eyelets of your down tube or seat tube. At 3.88 pounds, it’s also lighter than most U- and D-shaped locks.

And if you’re willing to trade ultimate security for lightness and convenience, there’s the Ottolock Cinch. The zip-tie-style design makes the lock small enough to put in a jersey pocket or clamp to the back of your seatpost, and its 5-ounce weight means you’ll hardly notice it wherever you decide to put it. The Cinch isn’t the strongest lock on the market and can be cut with specialty hand tools, but it’s just enough to prevent an opportunist from running off with your ride while you duck inside a gas station for a fill-up.

While there’s no shame in calling friends or family when a ride goes awry, there’s also no reason to let a flat tire or a falling saddle mark the end of your ride. We’ve got you covered with handy guides on how to change a flat tire and crucial maintenance hacks that pro mechanics use to keep their bikes in tip-top shape. But first, let’s review the key supplies you’ll want to carry on every ride.

The Crankbrothers M17 is the only multitool you need to carry on your bike. It features hex wrenches ranging from 2mm to 8mm, four sizes of spoke wrenches, both Phillips and flathead screwdrivers, a Torx T-25 head, and 8mm and 10mm open wrenches. There’s also a chain tool, so you can ride on after snapping a chain. The M17 weighs just 6 ounces, too, so you’ll hardly notice it wherever you decide to put it.

Tire levers are simple tools, but they aren’t all created equal. A bad tire lever will snap when you apply too much force, or it won’t have the right shape to lift a stubborn bead up and over the hook of your rim. That’s why Pedro’s tire levers are among the most popular among mechanics—professional and amateur alike. They’re thick and sturdy, so they won’t hurt your hand or snap when you’re working a tire bead into place. There are also spoke hooks on the ends to lever one in place while you use another one.

A reliable hand pump can mean the difference between riding home and click-clacking home as you try to cover ground in stiff cycling shoes. For a reliable, great-value pump, we like the Lezyne Sport Drive. Not only does it go up to 120 psi—enough for skinny 23mm road bike tires—but it also features a retractable hose that screws onto the valve of your inner tube or tubeless valve. That’s important because it separates the pump from the valve, preventing leaks as you put force through the pump to get the tire back up to ideal riding pressure.
