Reflective rim strips installed with pics!
Ok...hope you guys don't mind me making this post. Just finished installing my rim strips in reflective blue. They are definitely reflective. During the day they are the same color blue as the bike...perfect match. When light hits them they light up pretty well. I just used the flash on the camera to light them up. When they light up they are a lightaqua blue.
First few pics are with NO flash...just the natural blue rim strips. Then the next pics are with flash making them reflect. It's obvious which pics are which.
So...should I keep them, take them off, or change them to nonreflective blue?

hey man nice bike!!! hahahahha... yeah man they look pretty good on our bikes, color match during day, and reflective at night when you need them. they aren't bad at all man... i got same set up.
when my buddies drive their cars next to me they tell me that it's really visible. hey it gives me the piece of mind knowing that i'm a little bit more visible to others out there. can't be too sure about other stupid drivers...

Tool?? Hell...no tools needed as long as you aren't blind. I've put them on before on another bike, so this was my second time putting on rim strips, but I did all 4 sides tonight in like 10 minutes and they are close enough to a perfect circle that you'd have to doradial measurements to know any different.
Now...if I can just get my exhaust from Bootleg my bike will be complete for the time being. Has he just fallen off the face of the earth?
