True. Don't forget the aero drag from reflectors too.

If I'm riding at night, I bring lights which are much more effective than reflectors anyway. For all the money I spend getting my bike as light and aero as possible, leaving the reflectors on when 95% of my riding is during the day makes zero sense.
