ABSTRACT:
A safety reflector device for a bicycle includes a shaft member secured to a bicycle in an upright position adjacent the side of a wheel. A reflective member is mounted for free rotation on the shaft adjacent the side of the wheel. The device includes a wheel engaging member, preferably the reflective member itself, which engages the wheel. Rotation of the bicycle wheel thus is caused to induce rotation of the reflector. In one embodiment, the wheel engaging member engages the tire and in another embodiment, it engages the wheel spokes. Various reflective members may be used and may include highly visible flickering or moving effects.
