While browsing around the Interbike 2010 sites I noticed that most of the new helmets have extended rear coverage.

Like SixSixOne’s Recon Helmet aimed at the XC crowd.

And POC – a Swedish based company with their Trabec and Trabec Race mountain bike helmet.  I like the colours and all the safety and technical specs sound awesome.

I know these will be available on CRC, I just wonder if any of the ‘big’ brands will follow suit and how and when it will be received in South Africa?
