Glowing Wheels

Description

This is a regular mountain bike wheel I customized it myself, as you see it glows in the dark when having car lights pointed at it; it is really helpful for the folks who always drives a bike, especially in the night time and since the wheel are the most parts exposed to cars since their level is lower than you body level, it is really necessary to make this to your wheels 

How to do it:

Items needed:  A paint that goes on rubber if (if there is a reflector paint that goes on rubber, that will be even more better), reflector sheets that has an expanding properties

1.take out all parts of the wheel, then cut the reflector sheets thin slices as much as it can wrap around the spokes 

2. Do the same with the rim, don't forget to leave space for the brake line like shown; if your bike is a disc brake then no need for that space

3. put all parts together, then paint around the wheels with regular paint (that expands with rubber) then when it dries completely put round reflector sticker on the wheel (don't worry, it will not go away if you're using high quality brands)

All these things needs sharp artistic hands, that's why I posted it as a piece of art :meow:
