I just bought my first new helmet in a few years and discovered that brain buckets have joined the technological revolution. Remember the days of swapping visors every time the clouds came out or the sun went down? No more. Helmets now have integral sun sun shades that work just like a fighter pilot's helmet. Clear visor on the outside, but move a slider on the outside of the helmet and an internal sun shade slides down out of the top of the helmet. Muy cool. Want connectivity? You can now get a helmet with Bluetooth. Streaming music? Check. Voice activated intercom with your passenger or other paired riders? Check. Make or receive phone calls? Yup, that, too. And far, far better ventilation than helmets of old had. Overall, I was quite impressed. I ended up going with a Shoei GT Air and a Sena SMH10 bluetooth rig.
