Reevu Helmet (Integreted Rear view Mirror).

[moto-science]

"I have a brand new flat black reevu for sale....."  nuff said.
Stick with real mirrors, they are must easier on your eyes.
Yes, you focus on the plane in the Reevu, but it is inches away from eyes.

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

Which part of that post do you think is going to convince anyone to take it off your hands ?

Seriously though, that's the exact feeling I have about this helmet. If someone that believes enough in the product to want to become a distributor but then when experience kicks in he stops believing in it, am I going trust my life with it? And it's not as if your post is the first disappointed experience I've read about it.

How will they hold up in a crash compared to other brands? SHARP test would be a good marketing step or convince an established brand to adopt the tech.

Nice idea, but I'll wait for some reality test first.

I can find no safety rating for SNELL, DOT, or ECE anywhere....

Here's a "reevu" from WebBikeWorld:

I seem to remember someone from TOB who live in the US, bought it in Europe and decided that it didn't work well for him and ended up selling it.

"REEVU helmet satisfies the main European homologation ECE-ONU 22-05. However, this helmet has surpassed many other standards and is awaiting certification once the demand in the European community subsides."

I have a brand new flat black reevu for sale.

Still have these available? What sizes are they and how much? PM me, id be interested in checking them out and giving them a try if they're within my budget. Let me know.

Sounds a bit shady to me...

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.
Not to blow my own horn....

I'd be happy just to see movement around behind me even if it wasn't terribly focused.  That would a least give me a cue to check the mirrors.  I run the (ugly) stock mirrors on my S4RS and they are not always visible in my heads-up field of view  with a full-face helmet (I'm tall).  No offense moto-science but I checked your website and don't think your mirrors would ever be in view in my normal riding position.  I would have to look down to them like I would have to look down at the speedometer if I cared.

That said I'd like to see someone say "I own one and it's great" before I'd have much more interest.

I wouldn't say I was "disapointed" It just wasn't blow my socks off incredible. I bought three for research and to see if I really wanted to sell these things. Sold two to friends that still like them. If the one I have left was my size I would definately wear it, so it's for sale. I was willing to sell them, he just wasn't crazy about the expense of DOT approval, and didn't offer much in the way of terms. They are definately ECE approved and safe.  While I don't have a whole lot of bad to say about them, my socks are certainly still intact. I'm loving my Shark RSR2. maybe they'll put a mirror on that

I do think it's a novel idea and will impact the helmet market once they get into circulation - as long as they get ECE I'd feel very safe wearing one.

Let me put it this way , I can glance at my mirrors and go back to the road quickly enough. It seems very fluid and reliable.
Mirrors are another source of information input. It 's not that the mirrors are at eye level, they don't need to be. They are well within the field of vision, that a slight turn of the head or your eyes can monitor the mirrors. As far as riding without
speedometer info or changing lanes without looking in your mirrors, that does sound rather exciting.....

Pasta Bobber ...what size is the helemt you are selling?  and how much are you selling for?  if price is right might be worth it just to check out...pm me info please  [moto]

You've made your point clear, but as you sell aftermarket mirrors, you come across as biased.


Personally all my duc mirrors ever did was show my shoulders, which was useful, in case I ever couldn't figure out if I was still on my bike, but that was about it.


I'd be open to other options.

Thanks Mr. I. 

I usually don't reply to those who need to stretch so bad to be snarky.  I did say I don't check my speedo but truth is I'm too damn farsighted these days to read it.  It doesn't tell me when to shift or when to brake so like my ex all it can do is point out what I'm doing wrong.  I can live without that.  As far as mirrors go I have survived 42 years on two wheels so don't think I don't use them.  In fact I said I do.

Exciting?  Okay about 1/3 of my bikes have had no mirrors or speedometer at all.  Dirt is exciting!
