Back in the olden days, kids used to clip baseball cards to their bicycle spokes, to achieve a motor sound. The Fuze Wheel Writer is an accessory for your bicycle tire (20" inches or larger) that displays visual light effects using the motion of your bike wheel as you ride. As the wheel turns, LEDs flash on and off to create up to twelve light patterns that look better -- of course -- at night than at day. It can also display your current speed, turning your bike wheel into a giant speedometer. The Wheel Writers are water resistant and battery powered (three AAAs) with an automatic battery shut off.
