Could you imagine this being pitched on Dragon's Den?

The helmet also meets the EU's CE standards, providing as much protection in the event of a crash as a standard helmet.

Naff all use then. Standard helmets are designed, and tested, to protect head in the event of a fall onto a concrete kerbstone.

Hövding can be ordered online at www.hovding.com, currently priced at £355, or around ten times the price of a conventional helmet.

20 times the price of a Lidl one that meets the same standards..... 3 times the price of a top model Giro helmet....er still no thanks

I can just imagine this thing going off whenever we meet a particularly nasty pothole.
