My impression is that they left the front/rear lights off to not detract from the wheel lights for demonstration purposes. I lived/commuted in Pittsburgh for 10 years and there's
no way I would ride around like that in normal circumstances. A good 10-20W HL and .5-1.0W rear blinkies in addtion to that wheelset lighting system would be great for any nighttime cycling situation. I'm in.
