Save some room, the foldable helmet

by Commute by Bike

What’s the bulkiest item in every commute? The helmet…

Stash, a company out of the United Kingdom, has come up with a foldable helmet. Saw this link to timesonline.co.uk on velorution:

In brief tests, the Stash helmet felt as strong and as light as a regular model and it apparently conforms to international safety standards. Folding it was simple: the sides pivoted inwards and clicked solidly into place to make a narrower, concave shape; once folded, 4in was shaved off the helmet’s width. As it’s no pricier than a conventional mid-range nonfolding helmet, this is a compelling option for commuters.

    great idea, but it doesn’t look like it breathes real well from the pictures here.

    The URL is http://www.stashkit.co.uk actually. Seems like a cool idea.

    Like Mark notes, it does look like a sweat bucket.
