Very Cool and a great idea....We need every edge we can get out there on the road.

Almost $500 smacks! Sheesh. I can't wear anything that bulky, anyways. It'd cause more problems for me, than would be worth that price. Besides, it might be a distraction to a newb, and the eyes, really need to be see'n what's in front, not in back...jist my two.

not for me...2 rear view mirrors and a neck that swivels is all I need. Mind you ...if you spot a nice ass on the pavement it could be handy for getting a frontal view...!

I am thinking just a novelty item. It is interesting but not sure of the advantages to it and wouldn't spend that kind of money when i have mirrors

rory ya always thinking Brother.....I like that!

I agree a novelty item. I can certainly appreciate the ingenuity that went into it, just doesn't seem practical. I always know what's behind me just by using my rear-view mirrors.
