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!
-Ann
