Melbourne, AU –<\/strong> An average of thirty-five cyclists are killed on Australian roads each year, with more than 2,500 seriously injured. Elsewhere the numbers are much higher – 50,000 reported accidents in the US and 17,000 in the UK, with many more going unreported. To solve this problem, SONIC GRIP Ltd launched a Kickstarter campaign on September 25 2018 for their patented electronic warning device that integrates neatly into the handle bar grips on your bicycle.<\/p>\n

“Bicycles are silent – so when you share the road or pathways with pedestrians they don’t see you approach from behind,” SONIC GRIP Ltd founder Steve Brkic explained, “Sonic Grips emit 100 decibels of attention-grabbing warning sounds that stops traffic in its tracks – a piercing noise that can be heard over the hustle and bustle of today’s busy modern life.”<\/p>\n

Why rely on an ineffective bell that does not alert other road users to your presence? This patented electronic warning device is a modern-day bicycle bell for today’s road users. With Sonic Grips roads and footpaths are safer places for riders, pedestrians and drivers alike.<\/p>\n

Sonic Grips fit neatly onto the handle bars of your existing bicycle or scooter – for fast, easy access that puts increased audible “visibility” at your fingertips. Sonic Grips can be fitted to any standard bicycle with design and development for racing bicycles already underway.<\/p>\n

Now, the Australian inventor, SONIC GRIP Ltd need funds to produce and distribute this cycling safety essential to a waiting market.<\/p>\n

“We have the technology. We have the patent. We have the reason – to make roads and paths safer places for all,” said the team, “Your support of the SONIC GRIP crowdfunding campaign through Kickstarter will help cyclists around the world say ‘bye-bye’ to bells and ‘hello’ to safety.”<\/p>\n

In exchange for pledging to the project, backers can gain access to a variety of rewards including one pair of Sonic Grips for the early bird price of $25 AU (approx. $18 USD), two pairs for $50, and more. Backers can also pledge $90 for a Family Pack containing four pairs of Sonic Grips.<\/p>\n
