These things look great whizzing round the wheels, the different effects and colours are great but our problem was actually getting it "into" the wheel. It was really tricky to get it in through the spokes and then more so to make it secure so you must check the spokes of the bike before buying this otherwise you`ll be cursing (like my husband was last Christmas!). Since then our little "darling" has changed his bike and the rainbow racer no longer fits , however, it does get whizzed around in dark rooms from time to time and it has survived so it seems pretty durable in that respect... we`ve not tested it in puddles like the previous reviewer but I can guess that water would get into the battery compartment as it only clicks shut. Great effect on a bike wheel but watch the spoke gaps on your wheels before purchasing.

We have found a fault that others may experience but have found a way to rectify it. One of ours did not work properly. The demonstration batteries were obviuosly low hence it did not chage colour. We then put Duracel Plus batteries in. These did not work as the nipple on the batteries did not protude enough (unlike the batteries supplied) to reach the connector in the Rainbow Racer. This was rectified by using foil! So if your racer does not work when new batteries inserted, check nipple size to the demonsatrtion batteries. If smaller, add a small amount of tin foil to the top of the batterie. It should work then!
Also avoid puddles. It is not water tight!

This was brought for an adult who i had previously purchased one for from argos 3 years ago (Which still works!) Now her bike looks super snazzy and all the kids (and adults) think their amazing and she's the talk of the town. And now as the days get dark early she can easily be seen in the dark by drivers and pedestrians. Great buy!

Disappointing
Liked like it would be very good but it wasn't. Cannot see lights in day at all and can only just about see them in the dark.
