Magnic Microlight Technology with special effects – In addition to our contactless dynamo lights
we offer the Magnic Night Bike:
A stylish bike with Magnic Microlights and phosphorescent wheels for the Best Side Visibility you can get.
It is the world's first dynamo powered bicycle with "Glow in the Dark" wheels.
You can preorder it here on
Indiegogo.
Below you see the MAGNIC NIGHT BIKE part of our product video and a short video demonstrating the disc brake version Wega
Our rim dynamo lights work for every bike. For the classic Magnic Lights we offer adapters for all bicycle types and for Magnic Microlights we offer the clamp version "Wega" in case your bike has neither caliper nor Vrbake/Cantilever brakes.
No batteries are used and you can exchange the classic Magnic Lights with a simple clilck adapter between different bicycles quickly. For the Magnic Microlights worn brake pads can be exchanged , so the concept of this product is a bike-lifetime product- and even more...
For all our products we have 2 year REAL WARRANTY. Due to the small failure rate we could even fulfill 3 year warranty for backers of our Crowdfunding campaigns.
Without lighting, cyclists risk their lives in the dark - but those on the road with battery lights will soon be left in the dark when the journey takes too long or the batteries are no longer full. Magnic (Micro)-lights can't be turned off at daylight: With lights on your visibilty increases significantly which means a great deal of safety.
For all models we have our custom security screws to prevent theft..
It took us years to get heard by German Government: In 2018 we could contribute to the design of a new traffic rule which takes into consideration the Magnic Light technolgy. In the last weeks of 2018 this new law will be presented to the German ministry of transport and hopefully pass the Bundestag
The core part is the world’s smallest contact and frictionless bicycle dynamo, that is integrated together with the electronic and the lighting system in the brake shoe of a calliper brake or Vbrake. The worldwide patented technic developed by the German company Magnic Innovations is based on a eddy current induction: a magnetic wheel in a generator separated from the bicycle rim by a narrow air gap induces temporary magnetic fields even in non-magnetic aluminium bicycle rims when the bicycle rim is moving. This leads to the magnetic wheel rotating contactlessly as if by magic.
The key is so-called eddy current technology : Energy is drawn from the rotating bicycle wheels without any physical contact, and thus without friction. Instead, eddy currents created by strong magnets generate electricity to power the lights: When the wheel spins, magnets inside the generator induce eddy currents with corresponding magnetic fields in the wheel, which in turn interact with the magnets in the generator. The resulting electricity will power your lights indefinitely without any environmentally harmful batteries or cumbersome cables.
Neither batteries nor external cables, further fittings or spoke-magnets are necessary. Solely the brake shoes are to be exchanged for microlight - brake shoes, so that the maintenance only involves the exchange of worn brake pads after thousands of kilometres. Over time, brake pads become thinner - for this we have integrated a special mechanism that keeps the distance from the generator to the rim constant and prevents grinding. The included brake pads are compatible with other standard brake pads of other manufacturers as available in every cycle shop.
For the production of Magnic Microlights we have started a new crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo.
You can select between different rewards and preorder without risk.
The additional light property added to brake shoes is of public interest because widespread use increases traffic safety due to better “all day visibility” and hence reduces the number of traffic accidents significantly.
