LucidBrake, the ‘smart LED lighting safer biking technology company’, has announced that ‘any bike-a-thon, triathlon, or other bicycle event raising money for a cause now has another way to raise money for their charity.’ As part of the promo, those who ‘sign up at lucidbrake.com and tell their bikers about LucidBrake, 20% of every order by their bikers will be designated for their charity.’
“Bikers raising money for a cause this summer have a new friend,” said LucidBrake inventor John Craig. “LucidBrake believes in safer biking and doing good, so we are giving 20% of every designated order we receive this summer to biking fundraisers.”
He continued, “Our Smart Brake makes bikers safer on the road. Prevention is 100% better than healing broken bones and repairing broken bikes. I have family members who ride. I care about them and want to make all families safer. What better way than giving to a good cause?”
LucidBrake is billed as ‘the most intelligent bike brake light on the market’. It mounts on ‘virtually any surface’, using all 3 axes of acceleration signals (right/left, up/down, backwards/forwards) to detect deceleration and stopping, filtering out road bumps, grades, angles and normal cycling movements.
LucidBrake easily and securely presses onto the bike, rider, helmet or other surface with ‘Dual Lock’ fasteners from 3M, an extremely tough fastener material that is even used to hold up metal siding on buildings in extreme outdoor weather conditions, no installation or wiring required.
Featuring 8 ultra-bright LEDs, LucidBrake can be seen up to a ½ mile away at night and ¼ mile during the day, ensuring that cars, other bikers and pedestrians will see the cyclist braking, slowing down, or stopping suddenly, even at a distance. The 8 LEDs blink as the bike moves and alert solid when it stops (just like a car’s brake lights), detecting movement on boats, jet skis, bikes, skateboards, wheelchairs, scooters, helmets and even backpacks, clothing, signs and other flat surfaces.
Featuring advanced computer circuitry, LucidBrake knows the difference between slowing down and abruptly stopping, detecting motion with 4 beacon modes: 2 blinking modes, steady glow (tail light), or off (for racers) normally while in motion. It has a 2-speed braking indicator: flashing quick alerts during sudden stops, glowing solid during normal stops.
