Helm does have an important function to protect the head during an accident. But for the particular use of a helmet is not practical. Conditions that make a designer named Phil Pauley makes the design does not need to wear a motorcycle helmet.
Pauley said of his work as the Crossbow which the rider did not bother anymore to use protective headgear. But to continue ensuring the safety of the rider, Pauley put the curved canopy at the front of the motorcycle Crossbow. In addition to protecting the head, this canopy is designed to have a dual function as a device anti-weather, wind, and dust.
Although the use of canopies, the design is not exactly conventional, but it offers character beraura futuristic motorcycle. Crossbow motorcycle attractive to the eye from any corner of the eye.
Pauley is not designed solely for purposes without a helmet, but more than a motorbike Crossbow is for all weather. Want a hot or rainy weather, the rider will be protected. This is because the design of the canopy-like cabin that protect car occupants sun light exposure or rain.
Canopy can be removed when the motorcycle at rest and closed when driving Crossbow. Is made canopy aerodynamic design and is able to cleave the wind with ease, so the bike is still challenging adrenalin when driven at high speed.
Crossbow powered by a high rotation electric motor. So far Phil Pauley has no plans to mass produce the results of this work. He still continued to refine its design. *** [OVI | PIKIRAN RAKYAT 09032012]
