Ventete Collapsible Bicycle Helmet.

 

In the current epoch, where we seem to find re-issues forming the majority of releases that manufacturers put onto the market, and 'innovations' are few and far between, it's refreshing to see a genuinely high-end product that actually incorporated real novelty.  In the Ventete collapsible bicycle helmet we find precisely that.

Developed by engineers at Imperial College London, and tested to an exceptional standard, the helmet uses specialised materials, and inflates with an included electric pump, and deflates in less than 30 seconds, to fold completely flat, and stash into a bag when on the move.

This really is a remarkable product, and as any reader of this little blog knows, we rarely say that.  It ticks every box, being well designed, manufactured to the highest standards, and exceptionally fit for purpose, and, considering these points, its price of £350 appears quite reasonable.  

We don't appear to be the only ones with this view.  It was launched on 16 July 2024, and has sold out it's first run completely, with those interested in it needing to join a waitlist.
