It was mentioned in the Youtube by the reviewer as 500 and as it is in England, it would be in pounds. I have dropped a mail to see if they have one for Singapore : )

Reevu is really out to market it. They even have a FAQ segment and it addresses 2 of the main questions from riders ....

 

Q: What about the glare from vehicles coming from behind?

A: The helmet has a series of reflective surfaces that limit the intensity of light hitting the front reflective surface. This limits the intensity of reflected light significantly. Even a slight turn of the head can ensure the reflective light path is stopped. Find out more on the safety & design page.

 

Q: What about Pillion passengers blocking the view

A: Although pillion passengers sit directly behind the rider, in most instances they position their helmet to the side allowing them to see the road ahead rather than into the back of the front rider's helmet. Therefore, the pillion passenger does not tend to interfere with the rear view of the front rider. For further details see the safety & design page.

[DaN zI]

cool if this helmet reach our shore will get this instead of shoei area

[aRcHeR]

useless and pricey innovation..

 

having a pair of mirrors are more than sufficient. why do you even need another mirror? vanity mirror?

[cox]

with this helmet can we already remove the side mirrors?

[Ajit]

im juz wondering how the hell we see through the rear of the helmet??!!!!! but cool stuff though

[Ajit]

if u think that side mirrors arent a need with this helmet den why do cars still have both side mirrors?..

[stsoh]

it was distributed by a sillypore company then, now i'm not sure.

then was priced about S$800.

disadvantage:

1) u will be blinded by bright light from vehicles behind, u can't close or shut the helmet rear view mirror.

2) pillion block rear view.

The FOV of the mirror is actually outside that of normal vision range, last time I read something about this helmet. So you need to consciously look "up" for the rear view, solving part of the glare issue.

 

There is a one-way mirror at the back of the helmet enabling the rider to see through.

 

As for whether I need it, erm, probably useful on bikes where the mirrors are more like "elbow checkers", ie, sportsbikes.

Some information. Use to have somebody named Paul bringing last 3-4years ago by some marketing company along Holland Village area. Despite doing so advertisement and promotion, the helmet just doesnt seem to go any further in sales here. Went to try the helmet, pretty comfortable. But the helmets is huge because of the in-built mirrors.

 

Basically if you wear the helmet and stand infront of the mirror, you look like a matchstick.

 

Price retail back then was about $750-800.

 

Cheers

Hahaha... Matchsticks!!! I think more like a Boggle Head...
