The hawaiian surfer-cool paint job by Chris Wood of AirTrix is
certainly eye-catching and refreshingly different, but the truly unique feature
of Wiki’s new Wave-100 helmet is the WikiShift photochromatic face-shield that
darkens in sunlight. Using the same technology as sunglasses, the idea works
well and gave me the flexibility to ride during the day and after dark without
swapping shields. The helmet has earned Europe’s ECE-certification, a sign of
quality engineering design. Its fiberglass and carbon shell is nicely finished
and, at a mere three lbs, the helmet is pleasurably light. The Wave-100’s
venting works, and I found it comfortable at speeds up to 180 mph. (Click image to enlarge)
