Really awesome product to not only make the bike look cooler but in safety in being more visible. Lights are bright and had no issues with any bulbs going out.I got the color changing one. YOU CANNOT PICK THE COLOR; It just rotates a set or 7-8 colors on loop (red then yellow, green blue, pink, purple back to red) But is still really cool and stands out alot.It is not difficult to install, just weave it around the spokes and the battery compartment is attached to the wheel axis (center part of the wheel) It has a cleverly placed screw top to take out the batteries and change them when needed and screw back in place without disturbing the whole setup. It lasts a long time, ive had it several months and not needed to change the batteries yet. (3aaa each)

This product is nearly perfect and I hope you will get one or more sets as well! This green model is very bright, eye-catching, and a lot of fun to experience when the sun is down.At the time that I received this product I also had ordered the version that cycles through multiple colors. Both are excellent products and you will have to decide which is the right one for you. The big difference is that the singular color lights had two modes: On/Off — or blinking. I find myself appreciating the blinking mode a lot more often than I had anticipated and was disappointed that the color-switching one (while beautiful to behold) is only On or Off. You can read my review over on that model.As a (pre-pandemic) daily bicycle commuter, I found the side-illumination these afforded my tires to be invaluable for peace of mind. My rear-facing tail light and 1000 lumen headlight have long been staples BUT bicycling through an intersection always caused me to wonder whether the cross-traffic would notice me. Drivers are rarely on the lookout for cyclists where I live. I feel like these wheel lights changed my visibility to cross-traffic in a big way and I was very pleased to have them on anytime I was out pre-dawn or post-dusk. I even appreciated using them in flashing mode under the presumption that they may just give a little more visibility during the morning or evening commute when the sun was still up.The installation process isn’t ideal and I found it a little more difficult and worrisome than I had pictured. I found the tiny bulbs (like regularly-spaced dew on grass) to get in the way of twisting around my spokes and did not always feel like the wrapping was going well. It left me worried that I had or would damage them during the installation process. However, the material turned out to be remarkably durable and I was grateful that my 700C wheel fit the product perfectly for one trip around the outer rim. If I had a smaller wheel (or wanted to install on a kids bike) I imagine the number of trips around would feel tedious and a bummer that there aren’t shorter versions available. Or maybe it looks extra cool to have layering of the bulbs.The battery life on these are fair. In the cold weather they obviously take a hit but in general it seems like it would be 3 months of daily use in warm weather and 2 months in the winter. The usage period is likely longer but I have not kept very good track of battery life to report properly.Regarding maintenance, if you get your bicycle tuned up, these little lights will likely have to be worked around as the bicycle mechanic trues the wheel spokes OR if you hang your bicycle by the wheel, they will likely be an annoyance to you. But there isn’t any interaction with the lights (hopefully) when changing a tube. It feels like once they are installed they pretty well stay where you put them. I’ve had a few times where I wished that the lights were capable of being more cemented in place but in general I haven’t messed with their positioning along the spokes. Expect there to be at least a little movement, though, from where you install them.So yeah, I am a huge fan of the bike wheel spoke lights and I can only hope that the innovations will be able to continue and keep this product improving as it matures. Great work Activ Life!

Prior to this product, I had a different brand (Waybelive 2 pack LED with remote control) that had a remote control to turn lights on and off and choose color and effect variations. When using the prior product, a lot of times the lights would turn off after five minutes or less and I’d turn it back on and it would go off. Sometimes when going over a rough terrain or bump, it would not function properly.again. I didn’t have the timer mode, so it was a malfunction. When I had to change the 3 AAA batteries, the inner metallic mechanism was so poor quality, it broke or would be likely to at any time.Also If I were to lose or forget the remote,there was no other way to turn the lights on. Eventually one of the wheel lights stopped working entirely.I like this Activ life product. It is very easy to turn it on and off on each tire. There is a button that worksvery nicely. Also, when inserting or changing the 3 AAA batteries, there is a battery compart that is pulled out so I can insert the batteries while in whatever comfortable position I choose (standing or sitting etc) not crouched over the bike and not as likely to damage any of the internal components as with other products. I’m also glad I don’t need to have a remote control I could forget or lose.I ordered the lights that change colors.Also, prior to buying, I called the customer service # to see if I could reach someone, so I would knowthey are available in the future should a problem occur. Sure enough, I was able to speak withsomeone in customer service who was very helpful, informative, and reassuring.In a nutshell everything works great and very pleased.

Great, only one set back, which is easily sorted
I bought two packs (so four string sets) and three of the four work a treat, beautifully bright, lights my wheelchair wheels a treat. Unfortunately, as I placed the batteries in the fourth set, a smell of smoke came from it and the “on/off” button didn’t work. So, I have requested a refund, bought another set that will hopefully turn up tomorrow, and will send back the broken one(along with the other not broken set) for a refund. Its for decorating my chair for an upcoming gig I’m attending. They have made them look amazing!! I will take a picture once both sets of wheels are complete.

Bought 3 sets, one of the strands doesn’t work – But overall, great!
Installed on 3 bikes, all but one of the wheels worked. Checked the batteries and replaced them. Still didn’t work. Called Amazon, they fixed the issue.

Éclairage impeccable et stylé
J’ai installé ces éclairages pour avoir un vélo qui détonne la nuit et pour plus visible. visible sur les côtés du vélo dans un carrefour et pas uniquement de face. Et j’ai aussi installer ces loupiotes sur mon panier avant pour relancer ma lumières que je dois tout le temps chargée ( tous les jours). Tiens des mois. Top sous la pluie. ^^.

Lucine x bici
Regalo molto apprezzato da mio figlio. Montate subito anche se sarebbero state gradite le istruzioni in italiano.

Davvero originali
Mio figlio è super contento. Non facilissimi da montare. Ci abbiamo messo un po’, perché la batteria la piazzi in mezzo e ci vuole una mano sottile per arrivarci. Le lucine sono belle. Un consiglio: non srotolatele prima di metterle. Srotolate man mano.
