The my buds at Redshift have a new product.

The idea is really great and I'm a bit annoyed that it didn't even occur to my company's Product team when we went through the "throwing spaghetti at the wall" phase.

Cool. A while ago a friend and I were watching a little kid with blinkies in their shoes and thought that would be great if they put them in cycling shoes.

Great idea but the pedals themselves look like the would be super slick when wet. Hopefully they add some additional designs in the future as I could see buying these for commuting.

My thoughts exactly.

But what if all bikes had them, I think that would drive me nuts. I think all bikes should have static running lights 100% of the time.

My wild guess is most of the owners will end up forgetting to charge them.

Also for kids those devices you put in the spokes that create a pattern or customized image have a much higher acceptance factor and although made to increase the side view they also increase the front/rear vistibility.
