One of the worst things about cycling after dark is your not being very visable side on :o

These look a great solution, I'd love to get a set before winter :)

A strobe light is also a good idea for night riding. Nothing catches the eye light a flashing light (or a naked lady!).

As much as I LOVE the thought of the naked lady,rest assured the thing I'd catch would be the wrath of Mrs. Bison :(

The down low glow looks like a great idea.  It is a shame they can't execute the design for less than $140!  ::) :-\

I know it is scary expensive, but hopefully it'll come down in price once it has some competition :)

couldn't you get some of those snap glow lights like they use in the military and velcro to your bike? I've seen the 8 hour glow sticks at Lowes for a couple of bucks.
