Bike Light
In this brief i was challenged to design a bike light using existing internal components. This project used both physical and CAD modelling.
​
Taking inspiration from the protective nature of leaves and beetle exo-skeletons, this light is designed for an adventurous cyclist who uses their bike on the daily for commuting and on weekends for cross country riding.
The light is made using predominantly injection moulded nylon as the hard inner casing and a 30A shore value TPE for the shroud and fixing strap.
The light comes in many different colours to suit popular colour ways for bicycles in the market.
A soft ripple texture on the button allows a good contact patch for identifying the button as well as a functional grip.
Blue foam and card modelling to determine the size and shape of the light, this allowed me to experiment with different shroud shapes.
