We all wear bike helmets when we're out on the road, but what if you could make them even safer? Well... whaddya know? Amongst other cool stuff, our Smart Helmets use built-in LED signal indicators to let those around you know what you're up to on the road while letting you keep both hands securely on the handle bars. Genius.
The helmet also incorporates flashing LED headlights and rear-lights to improve your visibility - especially important at night and in inclement conditions such as fog or rain. (In New Zealand? Never!)
The turn signal is operated by a remote-control that you mount right onto your handlebars. It also syncs to any Bluetooth-enabled smart phone, so not only can you listen to your music while cycling, you can also answer or refuse an incoming call, or redial the most recent number just by pressing a button on the chin-strap. There's a microphone built into the strap too, so you won't have to shout your confidential conversation at innocent pedestrians.
You know that staying aware of your surroundings is important for your safety, which is why ordinary ear-buds are not advisable when on the road, even while driving a car. What's seriously cool about the speakers built in to this helmet is the' bone-conduction' technology that plays the music 'around' your ear not into it. That way you can still listen to music - or that all-important confidential phone conversation - while still hearing the ambient environment. So when that hottie calls out to you from across the street or a siren is whizzing by, you won't be caught unawares.
The handle-bar remote control is easy to transfer between bikes, so even if you borrow a mate's wheels you can still enjoy your helmet's safety features. The helmet charges in four hours, and the remote in two, giving 8 hours of continuous use.
