I wear a helmet when I ride as do most responsible riders. There is a new invention that would make it not necessery. Go to http://www.focusforwardfilms.com and scroll down to Invisible Helmet and check it out. The invisible helmet is actually an air bag. You wear this collar around your neck and if you crash the air bag is deployed based on sensors. BOOM the air bad comes out before you hit terra firma. Check it out. The blonde in the movie might could sell me one. The invisible helmet is above $600 so it will work perfectly with your $8000 mountain bike. Later,

The concept is pretty cool. I'm not sure if I'd wear it though. I'd be afraid it'd go off when I'm not in an accident or that I would crash, puncture the air bag, and still bounce my head off the ground/rocks/roots.

I'd much rather wear an ugly helmet vs that ugly Kanye West scarf.

I saw that video a while ago but fast forwarded to the 5 seconds at the end that shows the actual product lol. Is it only good for one use? Can it be re-packed like a parachute?

I look like a stud in my helmet, thank you very much!

Ok Fitch, I'll see your stud headwear and I'll raise you an Invisible Helmet with a Mohawk. A vented helmet might be cooler than a neck warmer that explodes when you do a wheelie. Still like the blonde inventor person, freckles are hot. Later,

"Cars are so yesterday. Bikes are the future." love that line.

Problem i see with the invisible helmet in mt biking, for at least me is, that mine has seen more action saving my skull not from falls but from low hanging branches. However in the film they did mention the urban setting.

What about a mohawk through the helmet vents?

Jared13, Helmet hair is the best thing you can hope for. A stick on mohawk would work but might block some of the vents. I've got it! When done riding just spray your hair with some strong hair spray to keep the helmet hair in place for a night on the town. Tell the chicks the weird smell is a new manly sent not sweat. Couple of shots of Patrone and they will hook up. This a free tip from Fat Billy's dating service. Later,

I've hit a lot more tree branches than the ground with my helmets. Wouldn't work for me.

I've gotten the tri-hawk quite a few times from riding.

My hair isn't long enough to stick through the vents though. I don't notice it until I get off the bike.

Wearing your helmet till you get to the bar is ok. Just buy some AXE! Later,

How about wearing the helmet in the bar? I dont even notice it while im wearing it..too bad I look like a dick with it!

Well, the helmet seem to be for urban riding. I would be wondering just how hot the "neck warmer" would be. I would like to see a downhill, or stunt rider wear it. I would bet it would go off just because of the ride.
