The Ultimate Bicycle Tail-Light, Rayo, Launches on Kickstarter

Hauteworks introduces Rayo, the world's brightest tail-light that enhances road visibility and safety for the everyday cyclist.

Rayo

​​Rayo, the bicycle tail-light designed for the modern cyclist, is now available on Kickstarter. Equipped with ultra-bright LEDs, engineered optics, and motion detection, Rayo's features prioritize safety and complete the overall riding experience.

Specifically created with total internal reflection (TIR) lenses that direct and focus light emitted by the LEDs, Rayo has premium light emissions, allowing for daylight visibility. With a simple touch, Rayo’s LEDS are turned on. Upon braking, Rayo will detect that you are slowing down and will automatically trigger a brake light, warning traffic behind you. Rayo’s distinct functionalities make riding safe, convenient and seamless.

Our goal with Rayo is to provide safety to cyclists by integrating advanced sensor and communication technology into an elegant design.

Rayo’s award winning-design comes in an array of five colors: carbon black, royal blue, lemon yellow, in the pink, and feather white. Rayo is Bluetooth compatible and comes with an easy-to-use mobile application that notifies users with potential theft alerts. Its battery life runs up to 20 hours, and Rayo can be charged with a USB cable.

Rayo’s features include:

  • Brake signal: Emission of brake light detected by movement tracking
  • Daylight visibility: Light visible during daylight with a maximum of 90 lumens
  • Pattern customization: Customizable flashing patterns to suit any riding condition
  • Group LED synchronization: Automatic synchronization with other Rayo lights
