Orange hi-vis (proper BS stuff) appears red when lit by car headlamps, but doesn't appear to be as bright as the yellow which looks green when lit up. If the reflective strips are in place though I can't see that being a major problem.

you can buy a glow in the dark paint (several colours) and a retroreflective clearcoat for it, now THAT is cool. Get that frame painted!

Agrreed orange is nigh on invisible at night, stick to yellow and white.

Search for railway hi viz vests as they are proper orange hi vis material.
Big advantage of orange over yellow hi vis is that it does't attract flies . The yellow hi vis is a nightmare in summer as it attracts all manner of flying bugs
