In chaotic traffic conditions, it's difficult and unsafe for cyclists to extend their arms in order to motion to motorists about their intended movements. The Quirky Indicator is a product that can allow bicycle riders to communicate with drivers in a safe and familiar way, by means of illuminating cues.
The product consists of rubber grips that can replace the existing sheaths on your hollow handlebars. Anodized aluminum end caps hold the AA batteries that power the pair of LED lights in each side. Simply push a button to activate and deactivate your bright yellow turning signal. A sustained three-second clench illuminates the intense white beams on the front of the Quirky Indicator, making you consistently visible to all others on the road while you bike-ride at night.
