I'm in a wheelchair and I just used a string of Battery Powered Christmas Lights, putting the battery pack on the axle and the lights taped to the inside of the wheels. You can get them on eBay for about $6.00 per string. They normally get used in Hanging Baskets where you don't want a long extension cord going up to them.
Just went to the Detroit Light Bike Dlectricity event last week. My bike only had 6 normal flashing front and rear lights with the laser lane markers. I would say 100's had bikes decked out to this degree. On Ebay, sellers from China sell this stuff dirt cheap. Next year, I will take it to this level, plus some. It was up there with some of the best times of my life. I am 52 btw and have done many other fun things too, like Disney, Vegas, Erebus haunted house, etc. Peace.
It's waterproof and very durable. While it's possible to break anything, the kit is very durable and the most likely part to make contact with the ground if you drop your bike is made primarily of stainless steel. As long as you are not abusing your bike you wont have a problem.

hay...my name is chris....and i wanna ask u something....:) can u show me the connector between led and the wheel?....coz i'm having problem with the connector......i want to use it to my motorbike.... thank's :)
Anyone remember generator-powered bicycle lights which had a 10?-inch white fluorescent lamp mounted on the bottom tube and an incandescent headlight? The wheel-powered generator had TWO outputs: low voltage for the headlight and high voltage for the fluorescent lamp.
I haven't bought those kind before, are there rechargeable ones or do you just buy new ones each time? I ask cause my bike is my main transit, and even though I probably wouldn't use the lights EVERY ride, it'd be handy to have often with all the bad drivers in my town -_-'
I paid for mine under $50 all leds still geting hits on it my bike now called night rider 01 I do some tricks as well, my wheels now all blue leds and frame to back all bright & cheep I put them on my self proud of this bike so many comments I take to shows here & there how be safe at night
I'm such a sucker 4 glowing lights. I'm like a bug heading toward the lights. Gets me every time. I am so tempted. 200 coconuts? Iono. My pockets R not that deep... lol
I'm with you. It would shut the car drivers up on my ride home bitching about not being able to see me even though I am already lit up with back and front lights and light coloured clothing.
very nice but its forbidden in most countries to have any lights exept white on the front and red on the back even on cars lightup stickysigns are forbidden
I just went on yall site and let me say this , THIS IS TOO DAMN EXPENSIVE , some of those lights cost almost one grand . these cost a arm and a leg smh

i was drinking coffee when reading your comment. the coffee is now on my screen... :)
Good idea for safety. The right colors and application might even get grown men to buy them.
can you ride with speed or will going too fast make the components dislodge?
@ Eric Alan my bike is a BMX trick bike which kit would be good for me to light up the whole bike?
aww dude awesome idea my mother is young born wheelchair. ive got her the light up small front wheels but ... thanks for bringing that up

With you here. Just wish i knew how those lights handle an Oregon downpour.
will you time travel if fast enough?
came here for the bikes, stayed for the music :)
Where u buy them lights id hook my bike up with that

Love leds on mountain bikes just got mine frist time I live in a busy town of Milford so many cool comments I get and head turns
The music...is awesome, What is it? please answer me.
Wait are y'all making these things for sale cuz I've been looking everywhere for something cool for biking at night.
did u use battery
what is the voltage
A 12 volt motorcycle battery on the rear rack, rope led lights (found at big lots,walmart) is what i did a home brew set up for under 30 bucks
I got an ezip scootor would I be able to put them on it ?
is it difficult to make it by myself?
Is that a Dodge Viper parked to the right? It's a white color, looks like a sports car.
Can you get 'em in white?
Can you make tutorial video in making and applying the led to bike ?
You guys are awesome! Thanks for sharing!

How do the cords on wheels not tangle up?
wish i could hang with people that had bike lights like i do, im like the only one in my town in texas
if i wouldnt be oversea in europe i would totally hang with you :D
Same here in North Carolina.
same here in virgina
What is the tool that i need to do this think????
EL wire is really cool, but it's apples and oranges in comparison to LED's in brightness and in how long they last.
Haha I see you guys ride around in my nieghborhood! My brothers got like five business cards from you. Totally gonna get one once they're out(:
can you tell me how to make my bike wheels Glowing ??
can i somehow put theses on my snowboard?
How much!? my front tire was just $5 to do
how did you do that ?
where i can buy this?
I'm such a sucker 4 glowing lights. I'm like a bug heading toward the lights. Gets me every time. I am so tempted. 200 coconuts? Iono. My pockets R not that deep... lol
what powers the lights?
omg where can i find leds?!
Where can i buy some
Wat if u drop ur bike or get it wet?
donde se consiguen esas luces? soy de argentina - san luis (capital) !!!!!!!
@inkybait They look more like LEDs when they zoom in.
tons of people right at night "night riding" very populare amongst bmx lovers
look up smd led 5050 lights, they are 10-15$ for 5 meters (16 ft) and run on 12 volts the same as most things
what's the name of this song???
Hipster's next big trend! Look at me! Look at me!
Safest Way to drive at road with this kind of light concept in dark night.
can't just buy the wheel lights?
@thebritebike i want to do the same to my bike when i run/ride to washington dc this spring. looks awesome.
If I would make this for myself I would only to the tires (and maybe the steer, so they see to which way I steer), but no pink, maybe red or blue ;)
I'm with you. It would shut the car drivers up on my ride home bitching about not being able to see me even though I am already lit up with back and front lights and light coloured clothing.
what song is that?
Veyda- Believe
what is the name of the song ????? please !!
Veyda-Believe
dude imagine one of these booths in mexico. Youd sell out in 30 seconds
very nice but its forbidden in most countries to have any lights exept white on the front and red on the back even on cars lightup stickysigns are forbidden
يرحم والديكم وين القاها في ابها
yo sos de trujillo peru y me facina tu bici
song?
Anyone know the name of the song?
Veyda - Believe
Whose music?
@Vuduhex Lead 12v. Will run for 5-7 hours at full intensity
2 bucks on dx, what's the problem?
Can't be EL wire. Dots of light when viewed up close = LED.
One, continuous, unending stream of light = EL Wire.
Finishes watching video
