Latest In Helmet Design
 

For those of you that feel the need for helmets....

That is the ugliest hat I've ever seen. :(

I agree.

Also, bikers are so concerned with aerodynamics, they wear spandex, have pockets behind the small of their backs, and all like that....

Then someone thinks they will wear a helmet that looks like it was made from a storage bin placed upside down on their heads...

They say "the latest isn't always the greatest" and I most definitely agree in this case.

I agree it could use some aerodynamic remodeling , but the techie features are nice...if you have time to watch them and the road at the same time. For the seg you might as well add side down-facing cameras to keep track of where your wheels are and automatic side hazard avoidance.

Now the wipers for the visor I'd really like! If you stopped with its appearance and didn't take time to check out its features, some of them are rather nice and apparently would use some of the modern technology I wish my 10 year old car had.....

It does not exist.

As to why so many cyclists wear spandex? For the same reason that some people put "racing stripes" on their daily ride.

This is what happens when CAD tools are released for free.
