New Sena R2 racing bike helmet with intercom technology arrives in summer
Sena has long been one of the market leaders in communication systems for motorbike helmets. The R2 is the only road bike helmet with this technology.

The unique selling point of Sena's new R2 racing bike helmet is its integrated communication system consisting of headphones, microphone and control unit. The new Sena helmet can also be paired with a smartphone via Bluetooth, which enables voice-supported GPS route guidance, for example.
