A Conversation for Bicycle Lights
Lights in bicycle tyres!
squonker Started conversation Sep 25, 2002
I may have dreamt it, but i'm sure i saw on the telly a few months ago a program about inventors. One of them had designed a bicycle tyre with lights built into and around the tread. The effect was amazing. He had overcome all the obvious problems and was looking for a company to mass produce and sell his design. From memory I think he won the end of series contest.
Have you heard of him and if so has he found a backer yet ?

It's an interesting idea - how do you change the batteries? How much mass does it add to the wheel? How well does it work with slick high pressure tyres?
