wow, ok, thanks for this link. I want those as well. I wear the leg protector because, for some reason, my tights get chewed up in the winter, and...my right leg gets chewed up in the summer, if I only use some sort of cuff band. between the front derailleur and the outer ring itself, I end up with grease and cuts on my legs\tights. Maybe it's my city riding style.

I think I will ADD the reflective bands you link to above. I read somewhere recently that neon yellow clothing is not really all that effective at night, and that reflective material, especially for the side of the bike and rider, are key. Certainly in the winter, my commute is in the dark on both ends. Thanks.
