Bullitt Helmet Concept
Chad Hodge
Chad, via BubbleVisor:
"I am a recent graduate of the industrial design program at the
University of Cincinnati and for my thesis I designed a retro full face
helmet. The idea came about when I went to purchase a new full face
helmet and I couldnt find anything that wasnt styled to look like it
belonged with a crotch rocket. I ride a 1978 Yamaha XS1100 and wanted
something that would at least attempt to match that aesthetic. There are
plenty of vintage half helmets out there, but after a buddy got his
face saved by his full face, I dont wear anything but. Its currently
just a show model, but I am interested in trying to get it prototyped."
At the moment this is just a prototype concept. If you'd like to help Chad (and the rest of us looking for a good looking full face) you can get his contact info by e-mailing Lennard from BubbleVisor here: info@lennardschuurmans.com
