Most cyclists don't use reflective tape because it bonds to the frame and has to be picked off with a razor blade. Here's a new way to use it: put a baselayer of electrical tape on first, and then put the reflective tape directly on top of that. Peels right off come spring.

I use clear contact paper instead of electrical tape. It does the trick too.
