Be Safe and Be Seen with the Original WheelBrightz Bike Wheel Light Tube by Brightz.
Most people are aware of the need for front and rear bike lighting but often overlook the importance of side visibility lights for riding bikes at night. If you love riding your bike in the evening after dark, you know it doesn’t really give you a chance to show off your bicycle and be the cool kid on the block. Most importantly, it can be dangerous if you can’t be seen. That’s why we created these bright colored LED light ropes for bike tires that you can attach to your wheel rim to create a beautiful, glowing, colorful spinning wheel that your friends and neighbors will never forget. Wheel Brightz Bicycle Lights for riding at night provide a cool glow for both front and rear wheels on bicycles. Whether you're riding through the city street or sidewalk, along the beach, or a trail at your local park, Wheel Brightz keeps you safe and visible as you ride your bicycle after dark.
Compatible with Bikes with Standard Wheel Sizes
WheelBrightz LED Bike Lights are designed for creativity and to fit your style. For bicycle tires measuring 23 - 29 inches, you can make one loop around the tire rim. For bike tires less than 20 inches, the LED light rope can be cut-to-fit, or you can make multiple loops around your bike spokes to make your entire wheel glow. Wheel Brightz are designed to fit a wide range of on and off-road bicycles so people can light up the dark and add a little colorful flair to their ride, including road bikes, cyclocross bikes, touring bikes, adventure road bikes, triathlon and time trial bikes, fitness bikes, track and fixed gear bikes, mountain bikes, hybrid bikes, dual-sport bikes, beach cruiser bikes, flat-foot comfort bikes, city bikes, BMX bikes, folding bikes, recumbent bikes, tandem, adult tricycles, and even wheelchairs. Brightz LED wheel lights fasten securely and safely to the wheel with heavy-duty zip ties, resist water with a waterproof tubing, and come in all types of brilliant colors to match your bike’s frame or your individual style.

With 14 different color options, WheelBrightz has trendy colors that are giftable for any loved one in your life.

Patriotic is the perfect choice for celebrating America's independence and military on the fourth of July, Memorial Day, or Veteran's Day. It's also great for political parties, events, and election day. The Rainbow color option is a multi-colored light rope that has all the colors of the rainbow - red, orange, yellow, green, and blue.

The install is extremely easy, the lights are nice and bright and the quality of the materials is great.The tubing is waterproof and the battery compartments are as well so no need to remove these every time it’s going to rain. I got the color morphing ones and you can let the colors fade through different ones or you can press the button again to pause on a particular color.The only thing I would change about these is I wish they used a higher quality LED itself because these particular ones don’t really turn orange, they turn a yellow color but never hit orange and when in motion they have a weird afteraffect on your image where you’ll see the red, green, and blue independently.Rating these 5 stars still because they are exactly what they say they are and of very good quality, but COULD be better with a higher quality LED but then they would cost more too. I will be purchasing the body lights and the frame lights eventually too.

Girlfriend and I like to ride around the neighborhood in the evenings. After several incidents where cars did not see us even with our front and rear lights on we decided to try these lights. They are awesome! We both feel a lot safer riding around at night now and they look great too. We get lots of nice compliments on the lights. I specifically order these lights because of the clear protective tube that covers the lights. Some other brands do not have this. I feel it will help with the longevity of the lights. I use rechargeable batteries and get several 3-4 rides before they need recharging.

Used on my beach cruiser. They match the yellow Brightz under bike/ground light I have on the bike, perfectly. Installation process was a breeze, as described.

I got these for my bike at Burning Man in 2022. Loved the lights! So easy to install. The strap for attaching the battery pack was easy to use. The lights looked great. Yahoo. Went out for a ride.
Unfortunately — the next morning when I looked at the bike, I found that the battery pack from the rear wheel was completely gone. It had completely fallen off the wheel. Lights were kaput.
I used tape to reinforce the connection of the front wheel battery pack to the tire. That survived until almost the end of the week, when I noticed it fly off as I rode. Second set of lights useless.
Admittedly the ground at Burning Man in 2022 was very washboard. Pretty much constant bouncing everywhere. I imagine that the bands were simply not up to that level of persistent jostling.
Still after 10 days of use, less than 50 miles of riding, both lights are completely useless. Maybe these will work for gentle rides on smooth pavement, For anything harsher than that, they need serious help to keep the battery pack in place.
I guess the best part of this story is that when the batter pack came loose, it broke the connecting wires and was flung away, rather than getting tangled in moving bike parts.
I’d give this 5 stars for ease of use and coolness. But falling apart so fast - sorry, gotta give it 1 star.
P.S. I see there are lots of complaints in recent reviews about the strap breaking. I wonder if the manufacturer changed the strap recently. Brightz, notice up!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Update 8/19/23 - About 4 days after posting my original review we received an email from Brightz saying they wanted to make things right, and offering a replacement set of lights. I love the lights, so said yes.
We’ve installed these on the bike. I noticed that the band for the battery pack is different than last year’s - very stiff, and more difficult to install. We also zip tied the battery pack to the spokes. Will make it more difficult to change batteries, but they’ll probably last the week, and I’m not interested in risking the lights just to find out if the new band is stronger than the old one.
Did learn one thing - it’s important to install the battery pack right-side-up, with the light wires coming out toward the rim. Duh. We got it upside down on the front wheel. The connecting cord isn’t long enough to reach to the rim in this case. See picture.
So for now we’re set.
Brightz definitely gets credit for quick response. Increasing from 1 star to 2 for good customer support. Will report back again after Burning Man. Fingers crossed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Updated 9/13/23 Well, the good news is that with the addition of the zip ties, the lights and battery pack lasted all week. Sweet.
As luck would have it, one night I noticed a piece of litter (i.e. “moop” - matter out of place) that turned out to be another WheelBrightz battery pack. This was Wednesday evening, when the playa was still very smooth. Looks like their battery pack strap still isn’t adequate.
I’ve upgraded the rating to 4 stars - their customer service was good, I like the lights, and I’m OK adding zip ties. Not 5 stars because I still don’t trust their battery pack strap.

This product is expensive trash. Unless you modify it yourself after your purchase, you might as well throw your money away since it will quickly break.
It would be solid were it not for its major point of failure in its design: the battery box mounting system. It completely ruins the product. Literally - the product exploded for me because of this design flaw.
I read the reviews beforehand, so I knew that it was problematic for a lot of people. Namely, overly dense and overly sparse wheel spoke spacings do not work with the battery box.
That cannot be stated enough because I thought I was fine having neither particularly dense nor sparse wheel spokes, but I was not. The working range of spoke spacing is apparently very small.
It’s also just not a good design period, being not evenly remotely adaptable to more than a few spacings and not secure even with a spacing that “fits” the strap. A poor quality (rubber? silicone?) strap is bound to fail eventually. I was shocked that it was less than two minutes into use, but it was inevitable with that design choice.
I was able to attach the battery box to my spokes, but it seems the connecting strap was too strained, with the bumps of the mildly cracked asphalt in front of my apartment proving too much for it to handle. Choose a wider strap loop meant it wasn’t secure either, though, being too loose. Because the strap was too strained the box exploded off my bike and onto the road. Th box ripped from the light so there’s no way to fix it. It did not last even two minutes, and with it being daytime, I never even got to use the lights outside at night.
Also, the lights were rather dim. For three double A batteries a strand, they should either last longer than 48 hours or be brighter. Maybe they do last longer than 48, but I wouldn’t know since again the box exploded off my wheel. This would be fine if everything else was good in the design, but the battery box issues completely ruins the product.
I could only recommend you get this product if your wheel spacing is about as wide as the box. Then, it likely would be secure enough.
If you create your own mounting system, you’d also probably be fine, but you’d have to work with what’s there and there’s not much good to secure the box with besides the bars? nubs? that secure the provided strap, so it’d take more than a few minutes and quite a bit of cleverness, especially if you have rather widely spaced wheel spokes.

I bought two pairs of these (4 wheelBrightz units in total)
On all 4 pairs, the strap snapped. I was careful to follow the instructions to the letter, and not over-tighten them. The second pair snapped in the 3 days my bike sat in my garage between installing the lights, and finally being able to go ride after some rain.
It's really disappointing. I was trialling these before taking them out to Burning Man, where I had seen everyone using these last year. I can't fathom how those straps can't survive my garage (during normal summer temperatures in Ontario) but can survive Black Rock Desert, NV.
These lights look cool, get a lot of attention, and are fairly easy to install.....but, the rubber strap that holds the battery box to the spokes is a weak spot that can break and the battery box will get caught up and tear the wires off.
I installed these then came back out a few hours later only to find that the soft silicone rubber bands that hold the battery boxes on each wheel was broken and the battery boxes were getting caught on the frame.
Luckily I noticed this as I was walking my bike out of the garage on not when I was riding. If it would have let go while riding the battery box would have been ripped from the wire leaving the units useless.
I had to use electrical tape to hold the battery boxes to the spokes which is going to make battery changes a pain.
I'm sure the manufacturer has received compaints about this issue. I doubt I'm the only one this has happened to. And I doubt the seller will replace the unit if the strap breaks and destroys the unit.
This would be the (count em') 7th we've bought of this product. Originally we bought them for a novelty bike ride event but now we ride with them on all of our bikes just due to the added safety.
The older version had a different battery pack but I like this one better as it is much easier to get into to replace batteries. On that topic, 1 set of batteries will last FOREVER. In winter my commute is about 25 min.. so maybe in a given week, I ride with them on 3-4 hours,.. and I change the battery once per season.
I've tried other brands that we "ok" but the tube is a must or the wires would be too fragile so this is the brand we came back to. Certain colours are much brighter than others.. green is the best and this time around I bought rechargeable batteries and discovered they actually make the lights even brighter for some reason.
