Cult have just released their Dak, Faith and Cult X Vans grips in this new Glow in the Dark colorway. The grips are made by ODI here in America and are currently hitting BMX shops and mail-orders that carry Cult worldwide now. See the before and after below! That’s one way to be seen at night, that’s for sure!
How do they make glow in the dark rubber? Well, here’s a little science for you. They add phosphor to the rubber compound. Phosphor absorbs light and energizes the material. Once it has been energized, it glows green until the energy has faded off. Not sure how long these grips stay green for, but either way. Pretty interesting.
