Volvo helps bikers been seen in the dark with reflective bike paint

If you’re a biker, you know that one of the most terrifying things to do is to ride a night. You can have reflectors on you and your bike but that doesn’t mean you’re completely safe. That’s why Volvo introduced a new LifePaint spray that is invisible during the day but reflects card headlights at night. You can coat it on your bike, clothing, helmet, and the like and it’ll last for around 10 days but you can also wash it off. It’s not something you can use in a rainstorm just yet.

It’s currently only available in six bike shops in London and Kent. There isn’t any word yet if it’ll be available elsewhere. It all depends on how they fare in these areas.

Kadalock puts the Bluetooth lock on your bottle cage

Kadalock differentiates itself from the other Bluetooth bike locks out on the market by making use of your existing water bottle cage. The designers behind the Kadalock take into consideration how you can easily take out the bottle cage by hiding the screws underneath a supplied metal strip that you can take out if you unlock the Kadalock. The aluminium contraption itself is weather-resistant and has an electrically retractable 120cm rubber-coated steel cable. Admittedly, it looks a bit filmsy but the company said you would need a hydraulic cutter to cut it.
