LEDS must not be a hack … my bike has a 6 function LED tail light and a led strobe on the front … not to mention it is an all homebuilt full electric bike named after the master of lightening … guess its not good enough LMAO <_<

@anonymous/beb: what are your definitions of hack? they look like creative repurposing of technology to me, so unless your definition of hack came from the film “hackers” I don’t see the problem. if you must complain about “this isn’t a hack”, save it for the news posts about space vehicles or university robotics projects or something.

@fartface

just lean into their car and give them a good scratching as they go around… if they give you crap, tell them to call the cops. once the cops come to sort it out, you were ahead and they cut the corner too close and hit you. sucks to be them.

oh yeah… metal brake handles mounted to stick out just past the straight handlebars make this trick much easier.

So I guess anything will pass for a ‘hack’ as long as it involves either a NES controller or LEDs.

Bicycling in the fail

My bike is easy to see day and night. I have a pair of 3V red led’s blinking away on the rear. I blind people in the daytime for miles. Same in white in the front. as well as a 1/2W one at the top of the flag waving away.

My problem is the huge number of stupid drivers that think they can simply run you over at an intersection because they have the right away and you are stopping them from turning a corner.
