Stand Out and Be Safe
LIVALL Bling Helmet also comes with colored LED tail lights at the back of the helmet which serve as direction indicators. Furthermore, colored outline LEDs at the top of the helmet will make it very easy for you to be seen. The earlier others see you, the further danger is away from you.
LIVALL Bling Jet
Bling Jet can be attached to your handlebar. It allows you to easily control other part via it. You can remain stable and focused with the Bling Jet during the riding.
Predict Your Next Move
You need the Bling Jet to control the colored LED tail-lights to blink like the indicators. You can press the button ‘left’ or ‘right’ to make people behind you see where you are going.
Make the Journey Memorable
LIVALL Nano Cadence Sensor
With the Nano Cadence Sensor set on your bike’s crankset hole, the LIVALL Riding App can show the cadence of your cycling, and (based on that) your speed, traveled distance and burned calories. Seeing the numbers go up will boost your performance! The LIVALL Riding App can also show slope rate, altitude, and heart rate when you connect designated extension devices to your phone.
LIVALL Riding App
LIVALL’s Bling Helmet, Bling Jet, and Nano Cadence Sensor all work together with LIVALL Riding App. The App can play music, send out SOS alerts, control the lighting on the helmet, and show your journey’s stats. You can share stats, photos and videos via Facebook or Twitter.
Furthermore, the App also allows you to import data from other device such as pedometer and smartwatch. With the parameters from other device, the stats will be even more extensive and trustable.

Creating a safe and joyful cycling experience is the reason we created LIVALL smart riding equipment. We want the world to get to know the vast possibilities of cycling, and show that it can be more fun than one can imagine. Also, by drawing more attention to cycling, we want to promote a healthy and low-carbon life style.
In order to put our product into mass production and to let more people get to know our product, we need funds. Our target customers are —just like Indiegogo’s users— open to innovation, they care about the quality of their life and others’, and value the natural environment. Indiegogo is one of the most influential crowdfunding platforms, and it already helped to make a lot of dreams come true. We hope it can help us to achieve our common goal as well.
How LIVALL was founded?
The full name of the company is Shenzhen Qianhai LIVALL IOT Technology Co., Ltd, simplified as LIVALL. One of our founders fell off his bike and broke his arm. He wanted to help others avoid the same situation, and provide riders a safer yet more joyful riding experience. That was the initial reason of LIVALL’s existence.
LIVALL is not just our product’s brand name, it’s also our team’s spirit. We want to engage together to create something different, innovative and useful, and to make people live a better life all together. LIVe and ALL, LIVALL.
Brian majored in Scientific and Technological Information and Management from Wuhan University (China) and an MBA from Massey University (New Zealand). He has broad management experience and is good at developing marketing strategies, especially when it comes to innovative products that are new to the market. As a founder of SWT Holdings Co., Ltd. he found new business opportunities and broke sales records before. And now, with his enthusiastic character and his love for cycling, he’s eager to share the joy of cycling with the rest of the world.
Remember the guy we mentioned earlier, who fell off his bike and broke his arm? That’s our founder and CTO Ken. Ken is an extreme sports fan, a technology geek, and above all an incredible engineer. He has a major in Radio Technology from Chongqing University (China) and an MBA from Hong Kong Baptist University. Ken has been an internet entrepreneur for over 10 years, and was the co-founder and CTO of AVLIGHT acoustics. Ken is good at fore sighting technological developments and transforming them into usable products. Combining sport and technology makes this geek most happy.
A shared hobby unites us here at Shenzhen Qianhai LIVALL IOT Technology Co., Ltd. Our team members are not only experts in their field and passionate about their work, we are all sports fans and cycling enthusiasts.
We focus on the R&D and operation of smart riding equipment, and aim to create a safer and more enjoyable riding experience, for you and for ourselves. The management team has an out-of-the-box thinking style, rich operating experience, a wide network, professional knowledge and deep love for their work, which enables the team to develop rapidly.
We wish the LIVALL Riding Devices can bring you as much JOY as they brought us. We hope we can spread LIVALL's idea all over the world.

FAQ
1. How many products does LIVALL have? Do I need to purchase them all?
LIVALL’s product line consists of the Bling Helmet, the Bling Jet (remote control), the Nano Cadence Sensor, a Phone Holder and the LIVALL Riding App. The Bling Helmet and the Bling Jet are the core products, and they heavily depend on each other. The other products are optional. The Nano Cadence Sensor works separately from the other hardware, but syncs with/requires the LIVALL Riding App. The Phone Holder works independently.
2. How to attach the Nano Cadence Sensor to the bike?
Put the sensor in the crankshaft’s bolt hole and you’re done. Alternatively, the package also includes a plastic band so you can tie the sensor to a paddle.

For the outer part, we improved high strength PC material of 1mm thickness. For the inner part, we use a special kind of foam called EPS, which is imported from the US, to make the helmet comfortable to wear.

You can charge LIVALL’s Bling Helmet through the USB port (located at the back of the helmet, right below the indicator) using a standard Android cable/charger. The helmet can be used for 30 hours after it’s fully charged.
The Bling Jet has a similar USB port at the top of the device. It takes 3 hours to fully charge it, after which it can be used for 100 hours.
The Nano Cadence Sensor runs on a CR2032 battery, which lasts 6 months.
The Phone Holder can also be used as a 5000mhA mobile charger. It has a USB port at the side which allows you to charge it with a standard Android cable/charger. Because of its big capacity, it takes 5 to 8 hours to fully charge the holder.
