These little lights screw into Schrader valves (Presta adaptors cost a buck) and create a pleasing glow as you ride (they&#8217;re motion sensitive and turn off after about ten seconds). They&#8217;re not going to last a lifetime and they&#8217;re not nearly as fancy or as practical as the <a href=\"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/pedalite-bike-p\/\">Pedalites<\/a>. They&#8217;re also not as elaborate as the larger, multi-colored spoke fixtures you can go crazy with (i.e. Hokey Spokes). However, what&#8217;s great about these is they&#8217;re inexpensive, quick to install and tiny &#8212; so much so that I now keep a set in the bag I take cycling. It&#8217;s nice to bring the option along for the ride (I unscrew them and disconnect the battery to keep them from flashing). The bike shop I frequent sells a case of these every year in the weeks leading up to Burning Man.
