By combining his own passion and the latest technology can offer, SEEKER as a series was born. SEEKER R1, the flagship of this launch was specifically created to combat the need for the rider to glance over their shoulders.
"We wanted to make use of the best technology that is available to us and increase the visibility and safety of our users We wanted to come up with a solution that also allows cyclists to also be completely aware of their surroundings.

The built-in light sensor automatically detects the ambient environment lighting and automatically turns on/off. The SEEKER Smart Tail light can detect when the user is slowing down and will immediately start flashing to alert other motorists. The Anti-collision Laser Bike Lane that will work in tandem with the SEEKER Smart Tail Light to create a "safe-cycle-zone" that warns other vehicles to keep a safe distance from you.
