In the bustling streets of New York City, between the food deliveries, the commuters, and the leisure riders, biking is more popular than ever. However, with the rise in this environmentally friendly trend comes a sobering reality: a surge in bike accidents and fatalities. According to recent statistics, NYC has witnessed a dramatic increase in bike-related incidents, caused by factors ranging from distracted drivers to road rage and treacherous road conditions.

For years, I’ve been interested in finding new and practical ways to improve safety without compromising the riding experience.
