Reevu Helmet (Integreted Rear view Mirror).

[ab]

I just heard back to my inquiry on 06/09 about the Reevu helmet from the sales rep.  It was nice of her to get back to me with an update.  Thought to share the link with you all.  This might possibly    be my next helmet to replace my 5 year old shoei.  Rear view mirror integrated to the helmet.  Sounds cool.

= to $360. Not bad. Too bad there are no US distributors, I'd like to try before I buy.

BTW, you might want to move this to the GEAR section.

it does say worldwide shipping via ups on the site.

True, just want to try the new technology in person. Also, what if it doesn't fit properly?

Trust me on this : a good set of mirrors will always be better. Easier to use and live with.
Your eyes have to work very hard to focus inside the REEVU helmet
and then back on the road and then back again.
The REEVU concept is having a hard time getting traction because of this.
Much easier to focus from 2 feet and then down the road with a set of mirrors.
Not to blow my own horn....

I don't think it was designed to replace mirrors but to enhance visability even more. Bike wouldn't be legal with out at least one mirror either.

The 'ads' indicate you dont focus on the mirror, only use it with your peripheral vision.  That extra bit of information that is already in your line of site will save your life.

Consider HUDs in fighter planes, they look past the display not directly at it.  Same concept here it seems...

[arai_speed]

That looks pretty cool - I would love to try that.

[Fergus]

Looks great, especially if they work like they were shown in the 2nd video. Not that I'm concerned about looks over safety  , but that's going to make my XX/XXX helmet look huge.

If you look into a mirror, you don't focus on the plane of the mirror but on the object seen via the mirror. Why would this be harder with the Reevu system??

I'm a sucker for new technology, that looks awesome.

I wonder if it helps with the blind spots?  Somehow I doubt that.

It's not like you're gonna see your elbows with it

I have a brand new flat black reevu for sale. I tried to become a ditributor, but hit some bumps with those guys. I've worn it on a couple rides and they do work pretty good. Cool for checking blind spots before a lane change
