Blinky Planet Plus eXtreme 1/2-Watt LED Bike Rear Bicycle Light Super 2 LED Blaze Flash focus

VERY BRIGHT LIGHT. EXTREMELY BRIGHT LIGHT. Viewable distance is excellent. But the best part is the flashing scheme. It does not flash like any ordinary flasher. It has 2 smaller LEDs that flash together and there is big strobe LED that flashes out of sync from the other 2 LEDs. This light pattern catches the attention of drivers much better than a regular flashing LED.

Bike Cruiser Womens Schwinn Windwood the best

Needs to pack better. The first bike I received was dented, scratched up and missing parts. Amazon was VERY GOOD about promptly shipping a replacement but the second bike also had a bent fender and some scratches, although, not as much so I decided to just keep the bike instead of hassling with trying to get another one again.

Bike WeeRide Trailer Co-Pilot headache

Get a professional . Get a professional to install this and you will love it. My daughter has been reluctant to learn to ride a bike. She is 9 and they just don’t make training wheels for bikes her size! LOL So we attached this one and WeeRide Co-Pilot Bike Trailer was great! I kept her balanced while she got over any fears and learned to lean with the turns and not wobble while we rode.

The reason that I recommend getting a professional to install it is that if the bracket is not perfectly strait and REALLY tight the co-pilot falls over. This happened, and dumped her right into a mud puddle!

The professional replaced the bolt that locks the bracket with a quick release bolt that tightens really well and makes it easier to store. He was also able to align them up strait so there was less problems.

After just 3 months of riding the one mile to school every day (and back) she now rides her own bike with the same level of skill as the other children her age!
