Newer models fit directly to the valve and it’s possible to use the same pump for both mountain bike and road biking tires, whereas Traditional models require an extension tube screwed in at one end of the pump. Appropriate tyre pressure has to be checked at your bike shop when inflating your tires.

To protect your software, wear the hardware. Be cautious while selecting the helmets, considering its safety aspects, rather than giving preference to style or price.

Lights are used more to make you visible to others than actually illuminating your way, Some lights come with a generator that pushes up against your front or rear tire (when turned on), that generates electricity as you pedal. This eliminates the need for batteries.
