A step-by-step guide to installing Toss Brightz on bike wheels, plus how to use them for safe night riding with kids. Includes common mistakes to avoid.

Quick answer

Attach Toss Brightz to your bike wheel by securing the battery pack to the spokes and mounting the light strip along the rim, then test the lights before riding. Always check clearance and tightness before night riding.

Why wheel lights matter for night riding

Wheel lights increase side visibility, helping drivers see you at intersections. For kids, they also make the bike easier to spot in low light. Toss Brightz are designed for bean bag boards, not bikes, so they work best as a creative add-on for stationary play or as a supplemental light when properly secured.

When Toss Brightz might not be the right fit

Toss Brightz are not specifically designed for bicycle wheels. Their battery pack and light strips are intended for cornhole boards, so they may not fit all spoke patterns or withstand road vibration. If you need a dedicated bike wheel light, look for products explicitly made for bicycles. Use Toss Brightz on bikes only with extra fastening and adult supervision.

Step-by-step installation

Prepare the wheel and parts: Remove the wheel from the bike if possible, or prop the bike securely. Wipe the rim and spokes clean with a dry cloth. Lay out the Toss Brightz light strip and battery pack. Check that the light strip is long enough to wrap around your rim; if not, do not force it.
Mount the battery pack: Use zip ties or strong adhesive strips to attach the battery pack to the spokes near the hub, ensuring it does not interfere with wheel rotation. Position it so the switch is accessible. Spin the wheel gently to confirm the pack does not hit the fork or frame.
Attach the light strip: Starting near the valve stem, press the adhesive backing of the light strip along the rim or spoke nipples, wrapping evenly around the wheel. Avoid stretching the strip. Leave a small gap at the valve stem so you can inflate the tire without removing the lights.
Secure and test: Add zip ties at both ends of the light strip for extra hold. Turn on the lights and spin the wheel slowly to check for wobbles or loose sections. If any part shifts, re-secure before riding.
Final safety check: Verify that no part of the lights touches the brake pads, frame, or ground. Ensure the battery pack is tightly fastened and cannot fly off at speed. Replace zip ties if they show wear after a few rides.

Product facts

Toss Brightz - Blue: LED lighting kit includes battery packs that attach under the board and edge-mounted lights for two regulation-sized cornhole boards. The edge-mount design can be adapted for wheel rims, but the battery pack may need extra strapping to stay secure on spokes.
