When I was a kid back in the day I had the original version of these on my bike as pretty much all the neighborhood kids did and we thought they were pretty cool. So when I saw these I ordered them. As far as looks and colors go I think these are good, six colors and six of each color for 36 total. When I got the package out of the box I thought they seemed smaller and lighter than I remembered my old ones being but I didn't think much of it. When I went to install them on the kids bikes I wasn't able to install them by hand as I did with my old ones. The ones I received have very sharp edges in the plastic and I had to use a pliers to hold them when installing as they were cutting into my thumbs. I put them on a vintage bike first and had one of the kids try it out. As soon as the bike moves faster than a slow walking speed the centrifugal force keeps them on the outside end of the spokes. I remember having to go slow with my bike to get them to make noise but not this slow. I ended up watching some online videos of the old original brand that I had to make sure I wasn't misremembering. In the videos I watched the originals would operate at make noise at considerably higher wheel rpm than these will. I assume it's due to how light in weight these are. The youngest child (age 4) was the only one that wanted them left on their bike and it was just for the colorful look, so I ended up putting them all on their bike. I gave them two stars for their looks, I considered three stars but the sharp edges made me decide to stick with two.
