Mercedes-AMG F1® Smart eBike Helmet
The Mercedes-AMG F1® Smart eBike Helmet by n+ Bikes moves beyond traditional helmet design by embedding interactive safety features. Built with an ABS ( Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene )
hard-shell and lined with EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) foam, it’s structured for impact protection, while the integrated MIPS system ( Multi-directional Impact Protection System) helps manage rotational force during collisions. Certified to both CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission standard (USA)) and EN1078 (European Standard for Bicycle Helmets) standards, it weighs 560 grams and is powered by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery. The design also includes a detachable visor that snaps into place for added eye coverage.
Beyond physical
protection, the helmet offers contextual awareness through wireless integration
with the eBike. It connects via Bluetooth to synchronize key functions,
allowing seamless communication between rider and machine. The system shares
telemetry data and uses that link to send automated emergency alerts to
contacts in case of a detected crash. These alerts operate in the background,
activating only when needed.
What sets this helmet
apart is how it supports safety through subtle automation. For example, ambient
light levels trigger bright adjustments in the headlamp, helping maintain
visibility without requiring manual input. Its built-in electronics support
these transitions smoothly, offering a responsive ride that adapts to changing
environments. With its gesture-free signaling and ambient adjustment, the
helmet enables focus to remain fully on the road.
