    This has to be in the running…

    An indicator light that is always flashing, and what about that “handy” mirror? (do you see what I did there?)

    Hold out your hand as normal to indicate your intention to manoeurvre in the knowledge that you have been seen by other road users

    An indicator light that is always flashing

    It’s not – you switch it on and off by touching it against the magnet! 😆

    Just wondering how you swap this from one hand to the other to signal a different direction…

    Really? I must read things before I post. I just watched the video with shots of all the riders riding along with hand on the hoods and the thing flashing away.

    A million time better than you thought then?! 🙂
    I mean, how would you comfortably look in the mirror with the orange light flashing in yer eyeballs?

    Didn’t someone like F:zik (or however the heck it’s spelled) market a 29er specific saddle a while back?

    Also, anyone who charges fifty sniffs for a front mudguard deserves public ridicule.

    Someone linked to a sail mounted on a carrier kickstarter on here a few weeks back.

    For those of you who watch daytime TV (which must be most folk here, because who would be on a forum during working hours right…?) the cycle indicator was featured on a program called “The customer is always right” which is on BBC iPlayer S1 E13 (link)

    At the end of his bit the inventor says something like “The feedback was really awful – people don’t read the instructions!”

    I have thought about a concept similar to the bikewing thing. Total bobbins but glad there is someone dafter than I am.

    /\ to those that need them, they are worth every penny, even those that don’t have wrist issues say they are pretty bloody good. I intend to try a set when I get back riding more.

    Really? They genuinely make a difference? Fair enough then, I stand corrected!
