Rock on, your head! Er, Wood on, your head…

While working on our wood bike project I found a guy, Dan Coyle, in Oregon who makes wood helmets, ya, you heard that right, wood helmets. They are formed out of a single block of wood with a special rotor bit. Sounds heavy right? Not so, these pieces of art and function come in only slightly heavier than a regular recreational bicycle helmet at about 18 to 20 grams!!! Check out Dan Coyle’s website and incredible wooden helmets http://coyledesignandbuild.com/ We definitely think wood helmets rock!!!
