The recently launched Lumenus Kickstarter campaign features numerous products aimed at keeping bikers stress free so they can focus on the adventure ahead. With a crossover backpack, vest, jacket, and coat, Lumenus provides smart clothing for the avid cyclists, runner, or motorcyclists. With the automatic activation of the lighting system on the clothing, bikers can sit back and enjoy their ride without any hassle.
The Lumenus technology has a lot of key features to keep its users safe. Some main lighting properties of the clothing include a white front light to ensure you’re visible to those coming toward you, red rear brake lights to help avoid that critical rear end incident, and amber indicator lights to alert drivers of your turns. The LEDs on your shoulders with turn indicators or brake lights tell drivers where you are turning or stopping. The innovative lighting system makes cars around you aware of when you’re approaching a tight corner, or even slowing down or coming to a stop.
The company has conquered the inefficiency of reflective lights on bikes and poor lighting on motorcycles. The technology aims to help busy cyclists train in the dark whether it is early morning or at night, something normally impossible due to the danger of riding in the dark.
The crossover backpack aims to enhance your look both on and off the bike. The accessory also includes the full Lumenus lighting features making it a key essential on your early morning or late night commute. With the options of the performance vest, all-weather jacket, or commuter coat, the smart clothing technology has you covered in rain or shine with a stylish look.

With Zero UI, Bluetooth Low Energy, and a washable LED system, Lumenus technology will allow you to train safely and more efficiently. The Lumenus products encourage bikers to put their phone away so they can focus more on their training and safety of their ride.
