A Revolution In Cycling Helmet History
10/08/04
When it comes to cycling and motorcycle helmets, the basic designs haven't changed in years.
Until now. The bicycle helmet pictured above looks pretty standard but it has something that no
other helmet has ever offered before, a rear view mirror! But wait, where is it? It's in the visor!
This is what you'll see from your visor!
Why hasn't anyone thought of this before? Because it's hard to design a mirror that curves around
the top of your head. Some genius at the Reevu company figured out how.
Here's a cross-section of the helmet.
I don't know how many mirrors it took or how it they managed to do it without changing the look
and I don't care. What I care about is that the Reevu helmet isn't available in the US yet! If I had a lot of money, I'd be importing them into every WalMart, Costco, Target and small bike shop
around and make a killing! Will someone start distributing these in the US so I can buy one?
Reevu now has a motorcycle helmet! This will be a great help to motorcycle riders who need to
be aware of their surroundings, especially at highway speeds.

As someone who has been hit by a car and had his head hit the pavement, you should always wear a helmet!
