I've honestly always dreaded wearing bike helmets due to their inconvenience. This is awesome though! Looks great :) What other products do you guys have in mind because I can use a collapsable snowboarding helmet too! @christianheifner@kutadogan
@davidsfeng Hi David. I've always dreaded wearing bulky, inconvenient helmets too, and I ride my bike EVERYWHERE! This is our first product, but if we hit our goal on Kickstarter, we have immense ideas on the horizon and in development! snowboarding, skate, etc.
@chinaschau Thanks Jordan! FEND is actually more compact than the Carerra helmet as it reduces in size by 70% vs. Carrera which reduces by 20%. Would love to speak more - can you send us a message at contact@fendhelmet.com? Thanks and looking forward!

"FEND is designed to exceed all US CPSC and European EN1078 Safety Standards. We will not be able to complete the certification testing until after production by law, however we are confident we will exceed all safety testing standards."
Err... And not a word about safety besides that.
@shimmb Hey Simon. In designing FEND, safety is our top priority, and in following with CPSC and EN1078 guidelines we are currently testing our scientific prototypes in our factories as well as conducting FEA simulations. We will pass 100% the certification requirements with these prototypes and will again conduct the final tests once production is completed.

I do appreciate such simple and useful inventions. Keep going. Our guys now at the end of Kickstarter campaign on a bicycle spring. It also makes you riding comfort. Good to see you on PH :)
@sahilc0 Hahaha honestly, anytime you put something on your head it will change the shape of your hair. This is just the unfortunate part of physics : )

Fantastic!!!!!! Can it be used for horse back riding?
@bonnie_bordonaro Thanks so much Bonnie! In this initial phase of production, we will only be testing to meet US (CPSC) and European (EN1078) bicycle safety standards . In the future, we will expand this to include additional areas (i.e. horseback riding, skateboarding etc), Please let us know if you have any other questions, Thanks!
