Off to France on Monday for a mini cycling tour, and have seen that according to French law a bike must have rear red reflector, front white reflector, and orange wheel reflectors (as well as orange pedal reflectors).
I've got all of these except the wheel reflectors (they don't seem to make them for bromptons anymore). Anyone have any French experience about how much of a hassle it would be to go without (ie, it's the same as the pedal reflector law in the UK, you're supposed to have it, but it's really super unlikely the cops will pull you up for not having them), or should I be hastily buying reflective tape to stick on my spokes?
tl;dr: wheel reflectors in France, need them or no?
