Basically what jacket has the most amount of scothclite material on the back?

my commute goes along several miles of unlit country lanes, and with the dark nights not far off i want to be nice and visible.

Any recomendations?

Altura Night Vision's got a fair bit.

Altura Nightvision goes one better and has a thin built in light as well as quiote a lot of reflective. Apart from that, you could try a reflective waistcoat, the industrial type or Hump rucksack cover or similar.

I'd get a waistcoat and lots of stickies on the bike.

ive sown reflective tape (ebay) onto the back on my camelback. Quite bright.

Aren't those night vision jackets black though? Great at night, but no good in the daytime...

You can get yellow ones too

night visions are super bright but the zips on the pockets continue to fail - even on the new ones (I have two - both with the same problem). If you are willing to put up with that then they are great

The night vision looks quite nice actually, i'll probably get one payday.

I like the sticky tape idea too, my winter hack bike is a ghastly machine so a few stickers can't hurt.

cheers for the advice guys
