Reevu helmets.
 
Just seen this on another forum so thought I'd share on here:-
YouTube Video
Error: If you cannot see this video, then either YouTube is down or you don't have Flash installed to play it.



Any thoughts guys?

I think I'd find it to distracting. And I've never checked my mirrors and thought 'wow, checking my mirrors is a dangerous activity, I wish I had a big lumpy helmet with a rearview mirror built it.'

A glance in the mirror takes a fraction of a second, i think if i had this it would be way too distracting and id spend too long trying to work out what was going on behind me!

I think its cool and looks no different to glancing in your rear view in your car or mirrors on your bike.
Id like to try it.

Spot on KJ.

A couple of years ago my mate Graham had one in his shop on trial and I took a spin up the road with it. The rearward view was appalingly bad as it all depended on what angle you held your head at and the rear view really in your eyesight was a proper distraction. I couldn't wait to get back and take the thing off.

The Reevu bloke came in one day and took their helmet away saying it wasn't going to be sold any more and that was the last he heard from them.

As long as I can turn my head or eyes to see behind me in the mirror I won't be buying one, and when the day comes when I can't use the mirrors, that's the day I decide I'm too infirm to ride any more.
