    Talking Woot! Hokey Spokes came in :D

    Yup, I really did order 'em and they came in a few days ago. Now lots of light from the tires.

    Mel -
    Can you get someone to take a picture of you on your bike so we can see these in action?

    do they have an on/off switch?......I went to their website (tnx Denise) and read the specs but didn't see anything about turning them on or off! As a commuter, this would be well worth the investment. Plus *insert evil cackle here* just Imagine the message I could program into them!!!!!
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"

    DH picked up some of these at Interbike years ago. I thought they were pretty darn cool. His just glowed red, no messages. I don't know if he got an early prototype, if they were basic models they gave as swag, or if his technophobia kept him from programming them .

    Corsair, they turn on and off by themselves!! Some special magnetic process that I am sure I would understand if I took the time to learn about it .
