tbrown 26 #5 October 24, 2010 This design, intersting as it is, strikes me as a "backup" device. the user gets to preserve his or her good looks, in hopes that sensors will activate the device AFTER the collision is already underway. Seems like a better idea to already have a hard helmet in place on one's head. You already know it's there and nothing has to be activated. Besides, people are used to seeing helmets on bicyclists by now and there are many sporty and attractive versions available. Plus the cops would always be pulling you over and ticketing you for "not wearing a (real) helmet". Your humble servant.....Professor Gravity ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They don't have a helmet law where it was made, not to mention a helmet "law" for bicycles, is rediculous, IMO... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
