Contrail – Every Bike Should Be Fitted With One of These
Anything that brings colour to the world is always going to be received well, and oh-so totally cool!
“Contrail is a tool for developing bicycle communities,” and is the device that attaches on the wheel of a bike that applies a thin layer of coloured chalk to the bike’s tire:
“As you ride, contrail leaves a faint chalk line behind your bike. The goal is to encourage a new cycle of biking participation by allowing the biking community to leave a unique mark on the road and to reclaim this crucial shared space.”

What a load of bollocks!
But it looks like fun, so I wholly endorse and encourage it.
Sounds goofy… doesn’t the chalk reduce traction? Even if it’s just a little bit less traction, that would stop me from using it.
Well its not designed for racing is it, or situations where you need maximum traction.
Cool and colorful! Plus, it could be a useful tool for police and insurance companies investigating collisions with pedestrians and cars.
Awesome! Or it could be used as a kid-friendly trail for walking the right way to school.
