Slowbee Posted September 8, 2017 Share As a result of this thread I no longer buy black kit (other than bibs). My wind jacket is pright neon pink. My gloves are bright day glow orange. Mrs SB is terrified that I am not visible enough, but she "caught" me out on a ride and said with those day glow gloves I am more visible than a car. Happy wife, happy life. jimmycool 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spirog Posted September 8, 2017 Share Eleven of us are planning our Jo'burg to Durban ride for Amashova 2017. We have decided to make two issues top of mind:Firstly, we are supporting the incredible work done by Qhubeka to get kids onto bikes;Â Secondly, we are committed to educating ourselves and raising awareness about the role that visibility plays in Cycling Safety.We have a large following vehicle with a flashing orange light on the roof. We are planning to make a modified tail section on the trailer that will have some reflective and some flashing light options.We now need to ensure that the cyclists themselves are visible. I really like the idea of reflective ankle straps and arm bands. Front and bike lights are an obvious requirement.Any other suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sepia Posted September 8, 2017 Share 3M reflective tape on leading edge of cranks.Amongst all your lights, throw a blue flashing light in there.Helmet reflection, heel reflection, Ankle bands are mandatoryOne small band of reflective tape on the wheel rim - inside to outside of about 50mm.  Strobe effect works well.Reflective patch on rear of glove - works well when you put your hand out to show your presence.Small light on bike on lower seat tube facing forward - illuminates the moving rider and reflects off all the tape. No black (non reflective) colours. jimmycool and Fat Boab 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tatt Posted September 8, 2017 Share do you possibly know who sells this ? I think we might be. Have asked the techie responsible for an update, will try and see if I can get a sample to test. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without sounding anal, is a red light more/less effective for this? the reason I ask is I have plenty of cheapie red jobs that I could use, but v few white ones.....
