A lot of tech for a bike for not very much money.

A unique gift for a young dad who bikes, likes technology, and is a bit of a show off.

Over the years we’ve seen a lot of devices that let you add LED lights to your bike wheel , but Wheel Writer 2.0 has a couple of features I personally have not seen before. In addition to 63 different LED patterns that are built into the device, it can also be set to read out your current pedaling speed in lights on the bike wheel. The pick-up to register the speed is included in the kit. But wait, there's more! You don't need the free app to use the built in 64 display designs, but if you download it (most late model iPod Touch and iPhone devices) it allows you to createn your own designs and text messages. You can even design your own animations. After you create your designs, you use the included cable to download them from your iOS device to the Wheel Writer 2.0. Your iOS device will also show you all the other available designs so you can pick and choose the ones you want onboard your bike. Once in use, the Wheel Writer 2.0 can be set to show them one at one, moving from one to next. Or you set it to display just one design, or your bike speed. Best part is the price: $19.99. Be sure you get Wheel Writer 2.0. The original Wheel Writer is still available for about $15.00, but it doesn't let you create your own designs and it only has a dozen built in patterns vs. 64 for the new model. Be aware that several places online are charging above the $19.99 price.
