“My friend Mitch” and his product: Globars

GloBars were conceived by Mitchell Silva, an industrial designer from Boston, MA. Stripping a section of metal from the front of a traditional drop bar, he installed plastic tubing containing approximately 40 high efficiency LED bulbs. A momentary actuator button on the back of the bars activates the system. The whole setup is powered with a watch battery. Though some structural integrity was sacrificed by removing a section of bar, Silva has some plans for the future to make these rigid and stable and perhaps even more awesome.

So how cool are these things. How much would you pay for a pair? I want one for every bike!

I just got home from the Wildfire Retreat in CT. God it was the most amazing weekend ever. I tried so many new fire weapons. I even came home w/ a prototype of a new weapon getting developed, and I bought the first one, which I’ll get from The Playing Mantis come November.

Here are a few pics from the weekend. Cant wait for more. (Also, get the hoop in pic three here)
