What are these called and where do i get some?

I got three Hokey Spokes from the USA (red, white, blue) and use them on my rear wheel in the winter.
Fantastic, but I can't see them... :-(

A couple of mates also bought them - they are kinda cool, but 9xAA batteries aren't lightweight !
Good winter resistance training though.

Not cheap at $20USD each either.

am i the only one that thinks they are cool as fuck?

A friend of mine mounted a couple of neon downlighters on his bike... Looked pretty cool except for all the wires and insulating tape hanging off everywhere (he's not much of a craftsman). That and the constant attention he got from fat kids on full-suspension bikes from Halfords.

a guy ( dan ) on the stonhenge ride has covered his bike with that scotchlite reflective material check out the flash photos from hippy very reflective though does need to be lit does a good job

there's no chance of someone saying "sorry mate didn't see you"

You reckon the cops would bust him for having no lights?

Yep.

But he has lights.

haha, that's awesome.

i wonder how weather proof that is. would be useful - make you more visible obviously and it'd put thieves off nicking it...well, perhaps. total sh1tbags.
