When I worked at Cycles of Hope in San Jose, we installed front and rear reflectors, pedal reflectors, and spoke reflectors. I'm not sure how much of this was legally required versus just shop policy.

A few times when we had high end MTBs donated, we sold them without reflectors with a "for off road use only" tag.

With solidary greetings,

At Sacramento Bicycle Kitchen, we sell all bikes as-is and do not require anything, however, reflectors are all free so folks can add as many as they like.

We used to ensure that reflectors were installed but Illinois State Law changed and no longer requires a rear reflector to ride at night if you have a red rear light. We require a front and rear blinkie light on all bikes leaving the shop whether part of our build-a-bike program or our ready for sale bikes.

Hi all,

I'm new to the Think Tank, though I've been around bike coops and advocacy for years.  I searched the archives but didn't find anything relevant to my question...

Do any of you have a policy about whether and which reflectors (or lights) must be installed on a bike that leaves your shop?  Has your coop had a discussion about it?  I'd like to hear from those groups who've considered the question, to provide input for our own discussion on it.

Thanks in advance!
