Abstract

A bicycle lighting system for transmitting light from a fixed position on a bicycle to a separate remote reflector positioned on the bicycle. The bicycle lighting system comprises a lighting assembly adapted to be fixedly secured to the bicycle frame, an electrical energy source electrically coupled to the lighting assembly for providing power to selectively illuminate the lighting assembly; a light conduit extending longitudinally between a first end coupled to the lighting assembly and a second opposite end adjacent the reflector for transferring light emitted from the lighting assembly to the remote reflector, and a light transmitting lens coupled to the second end of said light conduit for transmitting light to the remote reflector mounted to the bicycle.
