Air bag "helmet"...

[Eden]

Is this thing for real..... http://www.ecouterre.com/inflatable-airbag-collar-protects-helmet-free-cyclists-from-broken-skulls/

Wow! Looks real. And I bet the ones who'd use it are the same ones who wear helmets.

[HillSlugger]

I would guess it's a prototype. On a hot day I think a neck collar would be more uncomfortable than a helmet.

[PamNY]

Aren't those great? Bikesnob had something to say about them recently. I agree the collar would not be comfy in the heat.

I particularly like there 'cyclist' model, LOL!

"Over time, the Hövding is designed to tune itself to your movements, because who needs the embarrassment of a prematurely firing helmet?"

Ask your doctor about Hovding, and avoid the embarrassment of premature inflation.

I thought guys anyway are more worried about premature deflation? ;) :confused: :rolleyes:

Hee - I kept thinking - if you're too worried about looking like a dork to wear a helmet, better not think too hard about the looks you're gonna get if this thing ever inflates... :D
