I saw this and thought they were interesting. If it makes people wear a helmet, I'm all for it. Seems like a great idea. Not really breathable, but if it's just for riding around town, perhaps safety is more important than breathability. Of course, they may not have the humidity in Copenhagen that we have here in the states (I don't know if they do or not).

Yep, I'm a bright yellow helmet girl myself.

Sadly, that Bell helmet only comes in one adult size....I have a teeny head and one-size helmets are always too big for me. I'll have a hard time replacing my current bright yellow Small-Med Limar helmet.

I've been astounded by the number of college-aged kids I've seen this summer riding without helmets. I should print up those two cool helmet collections and hand 'em out to all these helmet-less kids!
Helmet hair is sexy!
