"Stealth" Non Dorky Reflectors
I started a new thread so the Commuter Bicycles Pics thread could get back on topic
]







The reason for the double pics is to illustrate what I call the "Stealth Reflector" concept and the use of Reflective tape on the wheels instead of CSPC plastic reflectors.
Basically the idea behind the "Stealth Reflector" is to use the same color (or reasonably close) tape as the frame so that it blends during the day, yet provides reflective properties at night.


Please keep in mind that reflectors and/ or reflective tape is no substitute for lights and are to be viewed and used as supplements to a lighting system not in place of one.
PLEASE CHECK YOUR LOCAL LAWS BEFORE USING THIS SYSTEM
Quick link to bike laws including some international regs. http://www.massbike.org/bikelaw/bikelaw.htm

"Stealth" reflectors are a wonderful thing, but I don't want anyone having legal issues because they don't comply with local laws. Remember: Lawyers Suck
