Rear View Helmet

A new dawn has arrived in helmet development with the REEVU motorsports helmet. REEVU have created the world’s first patented rear-view helmet range that gives the wearer that all round vision “at a glance.” REEVU believe that they have made a helmet that will help prevent accidents because we all know “prevention is better than cure”.

Seeing behind you on a motorcycle has always been a problem. Sometimes the mirrors vibrate, and sometimes they offer a terrific view of your elbows, and most of the time they offer a distinctly inferior view of the rear compared to that you get in a car because you can’t see the parts directly behind you. As a soldier in combat will tell you, when your situational awareness is down in a hostile environment, the risk of injury multiplies enormously. And hence when a helmet with an integrated rear view mirror system was launched last week in Munich we think it’s worth a look. Manufacturers Reevu spent ten years developing the helmet, which has a built-in 180 degree unbreakable rear-view mirror system in the hope it will save lives on the roads by improving situational awareness and hence preventing accidents.
