The new way to design bike accessories

Velodroom wanted to gather fresh ideasfor bicycle accessories.

Normally, they would look for ideas within their own team.

Instead, they turned to the over one million engineers and designers on

GrabCAD.

Here's how GrabCADrs created a larger variety and higher quality ideas

faster than ever.

“LED wheel lights already exist on the market, but this is a product that could fit well with the Velodroom brand. I like the USB changing and simple installation. The addition of an automatic accelerometer based on/off would set this product

apart.” -James Thomas, Bicycledesign.net

This is an interesting idea. I like the fact that the LED bracelets work with (and amplify) simple hand signals. It needs a lot of development and fitting all of the components into a small package will be a challenge, but I see this one as the

idea with the most potential as a new safety product.

This design has definitely some common lines with Velodroom brand and fits in very well. Would like to have one. Nice job!
