Since I am commuting by bike and now more often in the dark when winter comes I used reflective Scotchlite tape on my bike. I really like it. Red tape for the red frame and black tape for the black fenders. It blends in and is not visible at all when not reflecting.
I have two more bikes with a silver frame which I also like to make safer. Especially my sons bike which he is riding to school. I could use the black tape but it kinds of ruins the appearance of the frame. I know it sounds picky... lol
I have seen that there is a white/silver tape from Scotchlite but I don't know if it is more white or more silver. Or if it just means that it is reflecting in white like the black tape does.
Scotchlite Reflective Striping Tape 79901, White(Silver), 1/4 in x 50 ft - Shop3M
Has anyone used that color so far? I am just trying to figure out how good it would blend in on a silver frame.

Thanks
