Abstract

A reflective system for bicycles includes a pair of bent triangle shaped reflectors which are mounted in oppositely facing fore and aft directions on a bicycle so as to present at least one large bright triangular shaped reflective surface to any position around the bicycle. The front and rear reflectors are preferably of different colors so as to provide a ready indication of both the presence and direction of travel of a bicycle.
