Ride Safer with Hi‑Tail

Hi‑Tail is a high-visibility safety device designed for bikes, trikes, and scooters. With its elevated, 360° LED system, it helps you stay seen from every angle—day or night. Ride safer, ride smarter.

After years of design, testing, and refinement, we’re proud to announce the official launch of Hi‑Tail — a revolutionary high-visibility lighting system designed to make cyclists and trike riders more visible than ever before.

Whether you’re commuting at dawn, riding a recumbent trike at dusk, or navigating urban streets in unpredictable traffic, Hi‑Tail stands tall — literally. Our modular, telescopic safety device system extends above the rider’s head, delivering 360° visibility in a way traditional bike lights simply can’t match.

 

Why Now? Because Cyclist Safety Shouldn’t Wait

 

Every day, over 50 cyclists in the UK are injured on the roads — and many of those incidents occur because drivers don’t see them in time. Globally, more than 130,000 cycling fatalities happen every year. With the rise of e-bikes, scooters, cargo bikes and trikes, those numbers are climbing.

Hi‑Tail tackles this challenge head-on, combining a patented design, universal compatibility, and real-world practicality to help keep riders seen and safe.

 

What Makes Hi‑Tail Different?

 

We’re not just another bike light brand. We’ve built a completely new category of visibility tech:

  • A six-section telescopic mast that rises above traffic
  • Bright, glowing LED shaft with full 360° illumination
  • Quick-release bayonet mount for fast installation
  • A detachable USB-rechargeable light that doubles as a torch
  • Up to 20 hours of operation on a single charge
  • Designed to fit bikes, trikes, cargo rigs, scooters, and more

And yes, we’ve protected it—with patents secured in the UK and EU and registered designs under our belt.

Big Demand. Bigger Vision.

We’ve already seen amazing momentum:

  • Confirmed orders from a major U.S. distributor
  • Letters of intent from UK-based OEMs
  • Interest from major retailers and cycling brands
  • Live testing and validation with riders and safety experts
  • Product expansion plans into cargo bikes, children’s bikes, and mobility aids

Hi‑Tail is more than a product—it’s part of a larger mission to make roads safer for all types of riders.

Built by Cyclists, for Cyclists

Hi‑Tail is led by founders Paul Costigan and Brian McIntyre, who brought their combined engineering and manufacturing expertise into the cycling world with one shared belief: visibility saves lives. Every detail of the Hi‑Tail design has been rider-tested and road-proven.

From early prototypes to today’s production model, the goal has always been the same—help cyclists feel safer, ride with confidence, and get seen when it matters most.
