Welcome to BikeVis — and thanks for stopping by.
We’re a company with one simple aim: to help bikers get seen out on the road. This page is here to introduce myself, share how BikeVis came to be, and explain why we do what we do.
My name is Dan Bailey — a qualified electronics engineer and lifelong bike nut from Christchurch in the UK. I’ve been riding motorcycles for over 31 years, using them as my only form of transport through rain, snow, and everything in between. Over the years I became increasingly shocked by how hard it was to stay visible in growing traffic. I kept asking myself: is there a better way to get noticed out there?
The idea for BikeVis sparked in 2009 while I was working on my own bike. I wanted a pair of small, high-powered white LEDs with a wide viewing angle to boost my front profile to oncoming traffic. Simple enough — but nothing on the market fit the bill. Most lights were bulky, ugly, drew too much power, or just didn’t do what I needed.
I’ll be honest — I nearly gave up.
But instead, I sourced some tiny LEDs, mounted them to my bike, and took it for a ride. The difference was instant. Drivers saw me sooner. They reacted earlier. Other bikers noticed too, and soon they were asking me to fit the lights for them.
A few months of experimenting, refining, and working out the best way to manufacture them… and BikeVis was born. My hope has always been simple: that anyone using our products stands a better chance of not being invisible out there.
Since then, our BikeVis Bullet and Cree Lights have become incredibly popular, and our shop has grown with many new products including our Racing Rain Lights.
