  • I have had a chance to wear one of these helmets. I was left in awe. Not very often I am excited about a product,this is awesome. Great helmet all by itself,and the new rearview optics are a very welcome add on to the motorcycle helmet. Just an awesome product....

    Alam Blascovich

  • have you tryed it for snowmobiles.. does it fog in the cold ? what is the price ? i really like it

  • Really usefull but idk what size my head have hahah

  • Yes, The System helmet is off the drawing board and in pre production phase. If you send us an e mail at reevu web site we will let you know as soon as the helmets become available.

  • Any plans for a flip up version? I don't want to go back to using a fully enclosed helmet, despite the safety advantage.

  • Have it in white?

    USA approved?

  • @TogetherinParis

    The helmet is just being lauched into North America with DOT approval. e mail Reevu and they can give you the updates of who is stocking the helmet. The new Graphic Model is Black and White, For Safety and to be seen Black and White is better than Flat white. Also you can attach reflective stickers on the rear as they do in France or Brazil

  • check out Vision-helmets for your helmets and accessories

  • E MAIL Reevu for your updates on the helmet. If you dont get a response keep trying looks like the man dont like this helmet as a lot of the Reevu traffic is going missing, KEEP TRYING

  • For further info go to the reevu.com site and e mail. If you dont get a reply keep trying as a lot of our e mails are spirited away, but we do get a few

  • The helmet has Dark, Blue and Silver, front and rear visor replacements

  • can i get a different visor for it... for ex a crome or black one

  • @yannick4123 Yep you can get the full range at Vision helmets under the Accessories

  • All I want to know is where do I buy it?

  • @Bighen34 The helmets in UK are shown by a number of Agents if you e mail reevu on their web site they will put you in touch with some one who uses the helmet and they can show you the helmet. The DOT helmet is available at the end of this month. If you e mail reevu they will keep you on record and let you know where you can try

  • All I want to know is where do I buy it?

  • All I want to know is how do I buy it?

  • Any plans for US distribution?

  • @youcanrunnaked

    First DOT helmets will be ready end of April, so not long now, If you send e mail to Reevu on their main website they will keep your records on file ready to let you know.

  • Hi Sorry No retailers in North East. Or most parts of Europe.. The distribution groups are absolutely passed themselves as this helmet makes all of their stock obsolete. If you ring the UK office on 00 44 (0) 191 4187755 They will pass you on to local agents that are motorbike riders all over UK who use the helmet. They can organize a demo and helmet

  • is there a shop in the north east of england that sells them

  • @godamit27 If you are in North east a lot of bikers are using it in the area, you can either get one from the Washington office or contact reevu and they can point you to an Agent. Most retail cant stock them, as they make all of their stock obsolete

  • Its the Best

    Only helmet that will save your life without having to have a crash

  • The great thing with this helmet is it will save your life without having to come off. Being able to see behind makes a massive difference to the riding experience.

  • I saw this Video and read up as much as I could and then took a punt and bought a Reevu.And after just a couple of rides I’m totally sold and could not praise this helmet enough.I am so impressed by the system,Yes its weird at first but after only half an hour of riding I only glanced at the mirror a couple of times as you get used to what is going on behind you using your peripheral vision rather than actually looking into it. I'll do a vid this wk/end to explain more,,Bikers..buy one!

  • Helmet comes in 3 shell sizes XS M and L. We are hoping to add a XXL shell for the outsize head size that will incorporate XXXXL.liners for Dutch German and a lot of USA outsize heads. We hope to make sure that everyone can participate in this amazing invention

  • Hi,

    What about shell sizes? I'm usually a Medium and hate helmets that don't have different shell sizes. my Caberg looks huge on my head.

  • @dazzelya Helmet comes in 3 Shell size XS S to M and L to XXL with XXXL cheek pads for the larger face

  • @MrMarkanthony10

    Awesome, so at M I would have the smallest shell size. It's a serious contender now. Thanks!

  • I wish this helmet would be released in Australia. I've been delaying getting a new helmet for more than a year! The waiting is getting ridiculous!

  • @Rainb0wSeven As was expected Demand for the Reevu helmet is high all over the world. Due to local customs and standards institiutions. The helmet will overcome all of these blocks to markets, however this takes time so that Reevu can deliver this life saving development in some territories.

  • @MrMarkanthony10

    I spoke to Reevu a few months ago and they said the only reason it wasn't on sale here yet is that ONE bolt was ONE millimetre too long, so it couldn't pass ADR.

  • @Rainb0wSeven

    Well just shows you that the test house in Australia don't want Australian people to be safe on the road, Typical jobs worths that will do anything to stop new innovation. Or I wonder if they are getting a bung from other helmet manufacturers?

  • @Rainb0wSeven As bikers with the Reevu helmet will testify. This helmet can save your life, without having to have a crash

  • @MrMarkanthony10

    I'm sure it can. I just wish they'd hurry up and get it up to Australian standards. - I've been putting off buying a new helmet for more than a year because I've been waiting for the Reevu!

  • WHERE CAN I BUY ONE

    yes I meant to yell, I can't find a distributor in the US

  • @i3in4ry42 Helmet will be available in USA some time in 2011. I have spoken to the Reevu guys and they will let everyone in US who have contacted them know where to try. in 2011. Keep trying to contact Reevu through their web site at Reevu. e mails can go missing getting too them so keep trying

  • Check out the Reevu at Reevu on facebook. See the DOT helmet and comments from Bikers who ride with Reevu

  • @MrMarkanthony10

    Keep trying the Reevu e mail address on the web site. e mails are being blocked getting to Reevu,

  • @calirapqueen You can see the optic system at Web bike world video.

    If you look at the Reevu face book page the helmet has already saved riders lives and not after having a crash. This is the future and makes all other helmets ordinary. Showing the REARVISION system does not show what its like riding on your bike, That is the only way to try the helmet.

  • Brillant idea. Simple. How does it behave at high speed in rain?

  • @OSS732 . Helmet is the most quite one at speed, also the rain pours off the back off the visor allowing you too see behind even when its pouring down. The best comments come from the people who have the helmet not the ones that don't.

  • @MrMarkanthony10 , Good looking woman are distraction so is the helmet.

    Looking at a goodlooking woman infront of u ,, then looking in the rearview helmet mirror to look at the goodlooking woman is double distraction.

    Its a kool helmet for sure , u are right its no ordinary helmet , u gotta learn how to use it. I  am just fine with the mirrors on the bike. Maybe I will buy this one day , It does look COOL.

  • @EVILAKUMA My shoulders are too big so my mirrors dont work and overtaking at over 120 is dangerous when you are looking behind. I have never felt better especially when I can see the Cops sneaking up behind, Helmet is a must if you have 6 points

  • Comment removed

  • @Fosterr91

    Thanks I was on the Autobahn. Its the only place you can try out your bike. Speed only kills when you hit something. I don't have any points I said if you do not that I have

  • as u can see this helmet is no ordinary helmet u have to learn how to use it .... its like riding a bike.. like i said before u have to learn how to use it .. its like riding a bike... i repeat like riding a bike .. u have to learn how to use it ... like riding a bike .. no ordinary helmet ... bike.

  • @EVILAKUMA N No ordinary helmet.; Its the future. Until you use it you don't understand the difference

  • @cumonyaface14 This is helmet that has to be used to know how it works Its like trying to tell a Cage driver what the buzz is from riding a bike, They usually think we are mental, Well guess what when you can spy the cops before they see us with this helmet gives me the sense of FREEDOM

  • @cumonyaface14 HELMET GIVES YOU THE FREEDOM OF NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE ANY ONE SNEEKING UP BEHIND

  • @cumonyaface14 HELMET GIVES YOU THE FREEDOM OF BEING ABLE TO SEE ANY ONE SNEEKING UP BEHIND

  • Accent is almost too thick for me to catch everything

  • @TheMerriamLookout

    I know Cheryl Cole aint got a look in.

  • Where can I get the Bicycle version from the UK?

  • Comment removed

  • I think #1 question is how much does it cost. An answer I've looked unsuccessfully for 3 minutes for.

  • @StormOfSwords The helmet just over 300 US dollars.

  • Are there any plans for SNELL approval?

  • @jlira01 The helmet has already saved lives by giving rearview information to the wearer. SNELL should look into this as they are really in the business of saving lives. The helmet is great and should be looked at by all of the regulatory bodies. THIS helmet is about saving lives, as it gives you the opportunity of getting out of the way.,

  • @ Snell is the most respect charity for looking after the sportsman who needs too wear a helmet. I am sure they will accredit this for the great safety feature that it has.

  • @MrMarkanthony10 I understand the benefits of being able to see behind you, but I need to know if this helmet is going to be SNELL certified.

  • @jlira01 I think you will have to Ask Snell. The helmet is ACU gold accredited here they are the racing body in the UK. Also the helmet is ECE 22.05 and INMETRO for the South American countries. I would think that all of the accrediting bodies will want to accredit safer helmets.

  • Anywho, I was just searching online to see if they were selling a road bicycle helmet version and I saw this video. Figured I'd try to say thanks for keeping my head in one piece and my hit-and-run incident had nothing to do with rear-visability which on the whole was excellent.

    While it isn't DOT approved yet (they've been talking about it getting DOT approved for years) the US isn't the only country with decent regulations and in my accident it worked beautifully.

  • @snappca The helmet you had was the early version. The new helmet is a better fit and fully adjustable optic part. The helmet has been designed to achieve all international standards. This New 2010 version only came out in Dec 09 Jan 2010. If you check out the Web bike world video. Also this helmet retails for around 249 euro which is about 310 US dollars. Half the price of the first helmet that sold for 500 euro

  • @MrMarkanthony10 That's great news. Obviously the older model that I had was a bit pricey, but I certainly appreciated the functionality of it and didn't mind the expense. If this new model is actually less expensive, so much the better! Make sure to get the word out when DOT approval occurs, I had plenty of people ask about the helmet since they had not seen one before but were turned off by the lack of DOT.  Best of luck and thanks for pushing the envelope with a unique technology.

  • A negative was when it got very cold (think 30's or lower) it'd fog up when you first put it on and take a bit before it cleared out.

    A positive was when I was riding at 50mph and a truck turned in front of my '02 VTX the first thing I remember after going down and hitting the truck was thinking "this isn't so bad" as my head was bouncing along the pavement. The helmet did its job and all that was obvious was a bunch of black was scraped off the jaw section (and I needed a plate in my wrist).

  • I live in Virginia and purchased mine in March of '06 from motowebshop. I will say that I REALLY loved the helmet and felt nervous when I rode without it as I had gotten used to always being able to glance up and see what was behind me. Personally this was pretty natural and I was surprised when my brother complained about having to shift the helmet around to get it into initial position. I just don't think the few minutes he had was enough for him to see the value.

  • I'm in the US. Would love to buy one of these helmets when they are available in the US!!

  • Also, Hows the ventilation? the place i live in is hot and humid.

  • @MrDeezi Its as good as anything out there, infact probably a bit better but I would say that.

  • Whats your international shipping rate?

  • @MrDeezi

    rearview-helmets charge a flat 19 euro for international express shipping

  • The Reevu Guys have told me that this helmet has been over engineered to pass all international standards. Mine is ECE 22.05

  • Have you gotten them DOT or SNELL approved? I can't find that information on your website. You should definitely get them onto the US market.

  • @martrg Helmet is ECE 22.05. INMETRO as well as a number of other territories. Will be tested to DOT and AS soon.

  • @MrMarkanthony10 Awesome. I've shown this vid to a lot of US bikers and we're all very excited about the prospect of having it here. I'll be looking for a new helmet next year, and if this is on the market by then it will be on my short-list.

  • Webbike world has just done a product video review on Helmet on you tube

  • This helmet is £249 or 299 euro, its a steal.

  • @MrMarkanthony10 Nice, I was lookin for a price tag somewhere...

  • @Valalvax you can get them at rearview-helmets

  • @MrMarkanthony10 Thanks, I'm US based so I'll wait until they're being sold here officially. Also, I don't need a helmet at the moment, as I don't have a bike, but I'm definitely keeping my eye on Reevu

  • Does the mirror adjustment help any with a more forward leaning sport-bike riding position? Sorry if this question was already answered...

  • Every time you look up to see the road infront of you you can see what is going on behind. When on the track this is a great advantage when you go into the corner as you can take a quick look as to who is coming up on your inside or outside, Gives you a chance to shut the gate. Very intereting

  • I saw the original (fixed optic) at a bike show a few years back, they said it was a prototype to get market feedback, also said the adjustable one was in developement. So as soon as it came out they e-mailed me, a week later I was wearing it. The adjustable one is much better for us tank huggers... just wish the weather would clear up so I can get the bike out.

  • @griffbg Yep that is the main reason it was developed

  • OMG!! Got mine last week (Inverness, Scotland) and what a difference. Had a nasty spill on my bike 2 years ago, some knacker playing with his mobile ran straight through the back of me, at least with this I could have flashed my brake lights at his to wake him up. Put it this way my girlfriends kitten sleeps in my Arai GT Viper cos that's all it's good for now!

  • Yep its just a matter of time this helmet is coming like a Train. Everyone that gets soon gets how significant a change this is going to be

  • Ordered one last Friday. Can't wait for it to arrive here in FL, USA. Brilliant design!

  • The shields have anti fog coating. you will find though the air flow through the optic channel takes a lot more air up from the front vent in front of your face helping to clear any mist. I see you are a petrol head, can you imagine this lid for carting, i dont think these guys realize what they have here.

  • What happens if the sun is low in the sky directly behind me, will the 'rear view mirror' dazzle me with the reflection ? You mention in the video about cars' headlights dazzling but I didn't really understand the answer that the light is diffused.

    If the light is diffused then how can there be a clear, accurate image in normal conditions ?

  • The optic system has a filter that filters brighter light. not as much natural light. If the Sun is too bright from behind it reacts with the filter. The best thing is to get the lid or speak to someone with one They will explain how great the system is. You have to try it, I know its a bit of sickner for those who have just purchased another helmet without the rearview option. I would also be bit sick about that

  • Thanks, I've had a good look around the internet and praise seems to be universal. I'll definitely seriously consider getting one when the time comes.

  • Care to send me a review model ?

  • i cannot see how! I have the latest helmet featured here and was one of the first to order - it only became available 6 weeks ago! It is simply amazing and after just one journey using this helmet my $500 shoei went straight on ebay. Speak to the guys at reevu com - you will not be disappointed, it is unique.

  • Seen this years ago !

  • How does it do in transitions from lay down to sit up positions on a bike?

  • When ever you are riding you have to keep your eye level with the road. If your eye is in line with the road then you can see through the system to the rear. You have to try the helmet then you will see how it works. I can tell you this, with any other helmet what you can see is nothing.

  • Did he explain you can see behind with this helmet on. It has a optic system built into the helmet to give you that rearview of anything coming up behind.

  • An amazing invention.

  • Very cool idea!

  • DId he tell you this sells for 249 euro.
