1. Lumos Smart LED Helmet (Kickstart/Charcoal Black); $143 (20 percent off)
This super-modern helmet has brake and turn signal lights to keep you safer and more visible on the road. An accelerometer senses your speed and automatically turns on rear lights when you’re slowing down to a brake. And the built-in LED lights on the front make it easier for oncoming traffic to see you. Forbes said the Lumos is "a fully featured high-end helmet with all the fit, comfort and protection you want."

The Bite Helper—which took home a CES Innovation Award in 2018—uses heat and vibrations to effectively soothe the itchy skin that drives you nuts, so you can concentrate on the open road.
