Same name, different people. Bloke must have picked up the pieces of the original. I don't know what the originals ended up like but this time 'round are the helmets even more tech-filled, heavier and more expensive?

It was £1600 for a rear view camera, integrated bluetooth comms and a sat nav screen projected in front of your eyes

I think its just tech for the sake of it...why do they think bikers need the same number of distractions in their helmets as car drivers have ? a FM stereo, navigation, streaming MP3, all whilst chatting on the phone to your mates.......then theres the weight, and its another gadget you carry about that needs charging up every day.

Its not solving safety issues, its potentially creating more....
