Tightwad Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 I have a hard time believing color doesn't matter. In the desert the animals that are bland colored are hard to see. We use camo to disguise ourselves and our vehicles....color has to be a factor. Now people who don't look won't see you no matter what color bike/gear you have. People on Cell Phones seem to be vehicle blind, not just color blind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soichiro Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 I want to add that it has not been proven that bike color affects your being seen. In independent studies bike color has shown to have little effect in how well the average cage can see you. No I don't have a link so don't ask and it doesn't bother me if you don't believe me! :blink: Bright gear is never a bad idea!! :cool: Other things you can do to be seen - lane position, reflective material, etc etc.. The reflective material both on the bike and your gear works awesome. Nicole has a black bike with black reflective material. You cant see that it's even there until lights hit it. Of course it works best at night. The reflective stripes on my gear stands out big time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
