Why LuMe

More visibility. More safety. MORE DRIVING FUN.

"Hopefully I won't be overlooked." Every cyclist knows this feeling – and we wanted to change that.

LuMe makes you visible. And the people who matter to you.

Visible early.
From every angle.

LuMe makes you visible from a greater distance. 360° from all directions and over the roof of an SUV.

Just get started.

Just go.

The LuMes One Click System can be folded up in seconds like a tent pole and stored anywhere.

Ready when

you are.

Whether for everyday use, rain, or darkness. Up to six hours of light. Fast charging via USB-C. Ready for your next ride at any time.

For every bike.
For every ride.

From city bikes and trailers to cargo bikes. From the daily commute to family outings. One mount. Many bicycles. Every occasion.

Your visible companion

A good feeling OF BEING SEEN.

"Hopefully I won't be overlooked!" Cycling should feel good. LuMe makes you and your loved ones visible from all directions early on. Your current bike light shows the way. LuMe shows you. So you can ride more relaxed - on every ride.

Bad weather

Visibility is especially important in low visibility, rain, dusk, or darkness. LuMe is weatherproof, reliable, and makes you visible.

Night drive

Your bike light shows you the road. LuMe shows you. It shines from below to high above, creating a space of light around you. This makes your bike the most visible point in the dark.

Heavy traffic

You’ll be seen earlier and recognized more easily. At intersections. Among cars. Exactly when everyone is out and about at the same time. LuMe creates space without you having to demand it.

Country road

Where cars are moving faster, visibility becomes even more important. LuMe makes you visible from a greater distance and enhances your sense of safety.

6 hours of runtime. Fast charging via USB-C. Just like your phone. Ready for your next ride at any time.

Plug and Play.

Compact to store, quick to get ready. When folded, LuMe fits into any backpack. And is ready for use again in seconds.

Our story

That’s why LuMe exists.

Cycling shouldn't have to be a matter of courage.
When my daughter, sitting in her bike trailer, and I narrowly escaped a traffic accident, one thing became clear: visibility shouldn't be left to chance! This was one of the most important reasons we developed LuMe.

LuMe supports the implementation of measure 7, "Cycling Safety," of the Master Plan for Cycling 2030 and the associated 14% increase in the share of cycling.

LuMe also supports the "active, safe, and climate-friendly mobility" of the Austrian Road Safety Strategy 2021–2030. Its market launch in Austria is being eagerly anticipated.

We eventually had enough of cyclists being so easily overlooked in traffic. And there was one thing we didn't want: to look like a tacky high-visibility vest. So we built LuMe to make sure you're simply seen more easily.
