    Yep, they're little bits of reflective tape that you "roll" onto the spokes. Very easy to apply, and bright. DH and I have them on the commuters.

    Heifzilla, here's a big thumbs up for the NiteRider Minewt! Mine's bar-mounted, but I really really like it and NR's customer service has been very good too.

    ETA: The Lightweights took a little figuring out at first. I found that they worked best if you pulled one off the card, stuck the very edge to the spoke, and "buffed" it with my fingernail until the tape started to separate from the paper covering. Once that happens, they can be rolled onto the spoke using the paper as a little tab to push. Hope that makes sense- it's easier to show!
