Created by: Card Addiction

The Bicycle Pink Rider Back Pink-Glo Deck is a close-up and parlour magic deck featuring the classic Rider Back design in a vibrant pink color with neon pink glow-in-the-dark ink. Spectators see a brightly colored deck that can be used for standard card magic and cardistry, with the added novelty of glowing under blacklight or after charging in bright light, making it ideal for themed performances, reveals, or finales. Printed by USPCC on Air-Cushion Finish stock, it handles reliably and includes two standard Jokers and two ad cards, ensuring full functionality for tricks and flourishes.

Effect

The Bicycle Pink Rider Back Pink-Glo Deck presents a classic Rider Back design in a vibrant pink color. Under normal light, the cards appear in a solid, bold pink. After being charged by a bright light source, the pink ink glows in the dark. This creates a surprising visual transformation for the audience, making the cards appear to light up during a performance.

Full details

This is a standard 52-card deck with two standard Jokers and two advertisement cards. The United States Playing Card Company prints the cards. They use Air-Cushion Finish stock, which provides a familiar and reliable handling feel. The deck is fully functional for magic and cardistry. The glow-in-the-dark feature is a specific ink applied to the classic design. The effect requires the cards to be exposed to a bright light to charge the glow before use in darker conditions.

Who should consider the trick

Collectors of themed Bicycle decks will find this deck appealing. Performers who want a brightly colored deck for visual impact should consider it. Magicians looking for a prop for a specific reveal or a finale under low light conditions will find it useful. It is also suitable for those who perform in environments with blacklights or need high-visibility cards for certain routines.

Information on how difficult it is to perform

The deck handles like a standard Bicycle deck due to the USPCC Air-Cushion Finish. There is no additional sleight of hand difficulty introduced by the cards themselves. The primary consideration for performance is managing the glow feature. The magician must remember to charge the cards under a bright light before attempting the glow effect. This requires some pre-show preparation but no advanced skill.

What magicians say

Ashley from TheCardists notes the glow effect is a "fun and unique gimmick" but emphasizes it "requires a good charge under a bright light source to be truly effective." She states the bold pink color offers "high-visibility" which "could be excellent for certain routines where card control is paramount." She considers the glow feature more of a "novelty for a specific performance moment." The promotion video suggests the bold color can "make certain sleights less noticeable" and helps "create a specific aesthetic for a routine." Overall, it is described as a "solid, well-made specialty deck" that serves as a "memorable visual prop."

What people are saying about Bicycle Pink Rider Back Pink-Glo Deck

Thecardists says...

She loved the bold, solid pink color of the card backs and tuck case, which gives it a modern and eye-catching look. For magicians, she suggests the high-visibility color could be excellent for certain routines where card control is paramount, though the glow feature is more of a novelty for a specific performance moment rather than a constant utility.
