Coros OMNI Smart Helmet
This connected helmet has built in, earbud-free bone conduction audio that still allows you to hear traffic noise around you. It comes with a keypad that you mount to your stem, so you can take calls hands-free from your phone using the bluetooth connectivity. LED lights ensure visibility, and using the Coros app (available on Android or iOS) you can save and share ride data, and follow routes using voice commands. All in all, this is certainly more than just any old lid.

R-Pur anti-pollution mask
This French crowd-funded innovation makes up for its pretty intimidating appearance by being specifically designed for two-wheeled riders, claiming to filter out all harmful particles present in urban air. The filtration system actually offers more protection than the highest EN149-FFP3 European standard, and also comes in an array of eye-catching designs.
