Hello,
I bought a new bike a few days ago which could be seen at this link:
http://img127.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gsbikexc6.jpgEven though I have some cat-eyes on my bike I want to add some additional
led lights on it to make my night-travels safer. I have some spare power
leds for this purpose. Also some regular leds for the purpose of building a
fancy propeller type led lighting (the ones that are attached onto spokes,
and make customized light patterns on wheels)
I have seen some cool cycle-computers on the web. Unfortunately many of them
is more expensive than my bike (By the way, I got it with a great discount -
it is just about $120). Probably I will use my Atmel AVR Butterfly kit which
has an LCD built on it. The kits fits very well on the handle bars of the
bike.
I am sure we have cyclists (well exactly hobbyist cyclists who like to build
their own electronics stuff for their bikes) here. I would like to hear some
recommendations and guidelines about my intended designs. Where should I
start? What are your recommended web-sites for hobbyist bike electronics? I
would be very pleased to know if you have any additional ideas to make my
trips more enjoyable and safer.
Thank you to all who read and response my posting.
Gökhan SEVER.
