Have no experience of them but asked for peoples experiences of them a while back[1]. Consensus was:
the mirror worked okay but you still needed a quick check over the shoulder just in case (obvious I
know but everyone said it). The visor could obstruct your vision if you had drop bars. IIRC no one
was dissatisfied with 'em (apart from the price).

[1] Thread was called 'Wireless cycle computers and rear view mirror helmet?!?'

Actually I remember there was a review in a mag (CTC? Velovision, in the last month or two) the
reviewer wasn't that impressed, thought you'd need a fairly upright position or the mirror bit
impeded your view, and they found it a bit heavier.

I tried a Reevu helmet at Cyclex last(?) year. I found it rather heavy and had to shift my gaze a
long way from 'the road ahead', which I might not have found easy whilst cycling.

I suggest you try before you buy.
