Bobbin Bicycles Rear Carrier Lights: Identify the Compact and Three-LED Records
Bobbin Bicycles rear carrier lights include a compact two-LED entry and a separate three-LED entry in the manufacturer feed captured on 23 October 2026. Both describe permanent, two-bolt carrier mounting and AA batteries included. Those shared details help identify the listings without proving that the lights fit every carrier.
Identify the two Bobbin Bicycles rear carrier lights
The compact product is titled Bike Light for Rear Carrier (compact version). Its description explicitly says two LEDs. The separately titled Bike Light for Rear Carrier says three LEDs. Preserve the compact wording and LED count in an enquiry, rather than shortening both names to Bobbin rear light.
LED count is an identity detail here, not a measured comparison of useful brightness, beam pattern or battery endurance. These entries do not supply equivalent performance tests from which to declare one light better. Check the requirements of the intended journey separately from choosing between catalogue names.
Two bolts describe a method, not every interface dimension
Each entry describes the two bolts attaching the lamp to the back of a rear carrier. Neither supplies a bolt-spacing measurement in the inspected text. A photograph showing two attachment points cannot replace that missing specification for an actual carrier-and-lamp combination.
Ask for the exact lamp and carrier identities, the applicable fitting instructions and the required mounting dimensions. The statement that AA batteries are included describes the offered equipment in the dated feed. It does not establish what batteries accompany a used lamp or their present condition.
Keep a basket headlamp bracket in its own role
A different Bobbin accessory, Bracket for Bike Headlamp (to use with a basket), is described as placing the Classic Headlamp above the basket rather than underneath. That solves a different positioning question from the rear-carrier lamps. It is not a rear-light adapter, and its name does not identify a universal headlamp fitting.
For a local bicycle enquiry, include the complete city-bike model name. The catalogue listing is Bobbin Bicycles Daytripper City Bike — Black.
The Daytripper’s dated description includes a rear rack but does not identify a supplied lamp or this rack’s lamp-mount dimensions. Do not add either carrier light to its standard equipment list on that basis. Ask which exact combination is proposed and what comes with the actual bicycle.
The historical Birdie image supplies brand context, rather than evidence of either catalogue lamp. Establish the fitted equipment directly before ordering a replacement or planning a lighting arrangement around an accessory name. No electrical modification or installation procedure is supplied here.
FAQ
How many LEDs does the compact entry list?
It names two LEDs; the separate standard-titled entry names three.
Is a common bolt spacing given here?
No. The inspected descriptions do not provide a bolt-spacing dimension.

No. It is described for positioning the Classic Headlamp above a basket.
Use the brand references to organise the enquiry, with the exact lamp name retained. Bobbin Bicycles topic; Bobbin brand introduction.
