Last but certainly not least of our 4 models is Lost Values. Lost Values make a turbo bright and very classy reflective lace, callled LFLECT that can be sewn onto virtually anything. It’s a fabulous addition to any cyclists wardrobe. As part of the design, no one can see that the lace is reflective, until a car or light is shone on it.
