Want to feel the freedom of cycling without the restriction of a conventional bike helmet? Here is your chance!
The invisible bike helmet has quite an inspiring story. A couple of swedish women have been working away for 7 years and have come up with quite a remarkable solution that protects your head without wearing anything on it. At first, people said it was impossible while laughing in their faces, but the girls attitudes were: “if people say it’s impossible we have to prove them wrong.” They did.
What is the invisible bike helmet?
Essentially, it is an “air bag” helmet that is designed to deploy and protect all around your precious head before anything bad happens.
Cost
This bike helmet runs for around $600. What would you pay for style points?
Concerns
What if the invisible bike helmet stays invisible? I would be concerned that this thing doesn’t work… all it takes is once.
Downside
To my knowledge you are only able to use this helmet once, so try not to crash because each crash may cost you $600.
This helmet is not designed for mountain bikers!
Technically it is not invisible, it is a collar around your neck.
Upside
You would feel very free with this invisible helmet. It would definitely put a smile on your face with the wind blowing through your hair. Also, it will not mess your hair up like a conventional bike helmet.
This helmet would be perfect for commuters.
