Activ Life LED Bike Wheel Lights with Batteries Included! Get 100% Brighter and Visible from All Angles for Ultimate Safety & Style (1 Tire Pack)

In the order of how often I'd use them, whether the lights were easy to install, the quality of the lights, how long the battery lasted, and other comments I had on them: I would use these on my bike every 2 weeks or so on night-time rides on campus and would ride around for anywhere between 2 to 5 hours long. The lights were sometimes a pain to install, but then again, I would install them in the dark surrounded by the other bikes in close proximity; if you aren't cramped like I was when installing the lights, it would be far easier to install the lights. On the occasions that I did not install them cramped having to worry about hitting other bikes, the process would take me about 3-7 minutes, otherwise it would take about 10-15 minutes. It's just setting up the plastic rubber bands on the center of your bike (axle? I only cared about brakes and whether my tires had air), looping the thin wire down to be near the edge of the rims, and looping the wire up and down over each of the metal tire line things. See the end for additional comments. The lights themselves were bright and did not diminish in intensity during the 8 months or so that I used them. They were easily noticeable and helped in being seen when walking my bike through intersections at night. They were also bright and a nice green, nearly as bright as advertised (the advertisement has them to show as blinding X^D). I do not remember if they came with batteries but surprisingly, I don't think I ever had to swap out the batteries during the time I used them. As I mentioned before, I used these lights for about 8 months for anywhere between 2-5 hours every two weeks or so. Finally, my final opinion on these lights are that they are great and that I would buy them again. One thing to note is that you should not install them when stressed or tug on the wires hard as that is how I broke one of two that I purchased. The light still works and I am sure I can add something to prevent any accidents, but do be aware that the wires are a bit fragile. They are not cheaply made though, but should still be treated with some care. I hope this helped some of you, have a good one.

I bought these LED wheel lights for my 6-year-old son’s 16-inch bike, and they look amazing! Super easy to install, and the bike instantly turned into something really fun and eye-catching. My son is absolutely thrilled — evening rides are now safer and way more exciting. Great quality, fast delivery, and well-packaged. Highly recommended!

These lights are AMAZING! Our family rides at dusk to dark every evening due to work schedules. Not only do they keep us much safer as we are highly visible and provide lots of light in what would be dark bikes trails, but they look really cool. We have received so many compliments and had a lot of other cyclists ask us about them and where to get them. We actually carry post-its in our bike bag that have the name of the company and the amazon link for them. We have bought several for friends & family members as well as a Christmas gift. We posted the above photo on our facebook along with a link to amazon to get the lights as well. I would also like to add that out of 11 different sets (22 boxes of lights) that we have bought we only had issues with 3 strings. They looked used when they arrived so possibly we received lights that had been returned to amazon, which would be an amazon issue not the seller. However we reached out to Activ lites and let them know about the lights that were not working right, and within 3 days we had 3 brand new boxes of lights and a letter apologizing for the bad lights. That is excellent customer service right there buddy!! BUY THESE LIGHTS for you, your kids, your friends & everyone and lets light up the bike trails one bike at a time!! You won’t be sorry. They are super easy to install, they come with the zip ties pre-installed and if you have to move them for some reason they even send a 2nd set of zip ties, as well as the batteries for the lights. They make great gifts! Huge thanks to Activ lites for replacing our bad lights so fast! ~ A happy and bright family of cyclists!

This product is nearly perfect and I hope you will get one or more sets as well! At the time that I received the wheel spoke lights I also had ordered the version that is a singular color. If I had not done that, then this review may have been given the 5* rating. Both are excellent products and you will have to decide which is the right one for you. But let's talk about the nuances. The color-changing product is truly beautiful. It runs the color gamut from Red->Green->Blue with a few colors in-between as well. However, there is only one mode: On/Off. I appreciate that with the single-color model I received it can toggle between solid color and flashing. This product does not flash which is about 50% of the star I removed for the overall review. It also does not have a quick cycle mode. The only mode available is SLOOOOW color changing. This is fine and beautiful to watch, but I would have appreciated a quick color change mode -- maybe 4 seconds to cycle through all the colors rather than 10 seconds. As a (pre-pandemic) daily bicycle commuter, I found the side-illumination these afforded my tires to be invaluable. My rear-facing tail light and 1000 lumen headlight have long been staples but bicycling through an intersection I always had to wonder whether the cross-traffic would notice me since drivers are rarely on the lookout for cyclists in my area. I feel like these wheel lights changed the game for me 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 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. It left me worried that I had or would damage them during the installation process. However, the material turned out to be remarkably durable from what I could tell 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. As the battery life starts to taper down I noticed that fewer colors were illuminating through the pattern cycle. It has been a long time since I changed the batteries so at least the product is still usable several months into daily use - kudos! I'm hopeful that when I eventually do swap out the batteries the rest of the colors will appear as before. 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 and 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. Expecte 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!

These lights are bright and fun! I have had some for 5 years and they are still working great. I just got some for my daughter and she loves them. Great for riding at night!

We saw these lights on a bicycle in our neighborhood and I knew we had to get some for our kids. For the parents, it is nice because you can see the bicycle from far away and it gives a sense of safety for twilight and nighttime riding. For the kids, it gives them something to enjoy seeing the lights as they ride. The lights are very easy to install and the instructions are easy to understand. The hardest part of installing the lights is installing the rubber "band" around the hub. It is possible with one person but a lot easier with am extra set of hands and the 4 step instructions that come with the lights let you know that. The lights have 2 operating modes. When you hit the button once, the lights flash about once a second. When you hit the button a second time the lighter stay on without flashing. The lights are REALLY BRIGHT and fun to look at. I thought it would be nice for trick or treating during Halloween. There is a positive and a couple negatives, but the POSITIVE FAR EXCEEDS the minor negatives. Negative #1: We ordered 6 sets of lights. (2 Blue, 2 Red, 2 Green) (The 2 blue sets are not here yet so I can only offer feedback on red and green for now) The first green set would not turn on when we hit the button. After a little troubleshooting, I noticed the screw cap that holds the battery pack in was not quite seating the battery pack in place. NOT A BIG DEAL. All I needed to do was put a little ball of paper in the end cap and screw it on. PROBLEM SOLVED. NEGATIVE #2: The second set of red lights we ordered seemed to test fine. We put the batteries in and turned it on. While still wrapped up in the packaging ball, all the lights looked like they were working. When I got about halfway done installing them, I noticed one of the lines was ripped. I hit the power button and noticed only half the lights were working. I decided to try to repair the wire but it was so thin that it was impossible for me with my limited amount of tools so I just cut the line at that point and tied it off on the wheel. I was going to leave it that way but decided to reach out to the company to see if they would swap it out which leads to the POSITIVE. OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! In a world of pushing phone buttons to talk to a robot that leads you to someone that many times can't help you with your issue, I can assure you that is not going to happen with these guys. I called the 1-800 number on their website and got an out of office recording. I left a message and we within 5 hours a member of their staff sent me a text message and an email with instructions on how to get a replacement. Keep in mind, I told them that it was working but only half. I offered to send it back for a swap but they told me to hang on to it and they sent me a promotion code for a new one through Amazon. I received the promotion code got the new one on order. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this product for adults and kids alike. It adds a big safety factor to night riding and they are fun to watch.

update I have compared them to other lights of this type. I have happily discovered these. The lights seem a little bigger brighter, and the battery cases are firm, more durable and a higher quality than the rest the cylinder, much like a flashlight design the on and off switch with a protective rubber cover and durable and definitely make these lights worth choosing over all the rest. after checking out others I’m happy to report that recently. I purchased a twin pack of the white ones and we look forward to using them this summer for those reading this review, please do yourself a favor and use good quality batteries I believe it will increase the amount of use you get out of them. I would like to thank the company for its attention to details and providing that a quality battery case, and the wiring is holding up well previous negative review was because it was my first encounter with these types of lights the design of the wiring, and the lights is consistent and becoming a very common design, whether it’s bicycles, yard, decorations, or for stringing Christmas trees . The brightness of the lights might be better in total darkness. however, I find the wiring very fine flimsy. And in desperate need of a clear rubber coating to provide far more durability and whether protection to the wires and lights glad I only bought one for $15 to see if it was worth the investment. Depends on how well they hold up. i’m glad I decided before I purchase them to wrap them around the boom where where the extra support from the frame might help protect don’t worry,. I can’t imagine they would hold up on a wheel doing 10 or 15 miles an hour going down a bumpy Road. update customer service responded to my review promptly. And we were able to help.

Great buy! The instructions for installation were clear, and I'm not worried about the lights coming off, as some others I've tried. My son is delighted with how his bike looks!
