What is the UNIT 1 Remote and how does it work?

The UNIT 1 Remote is a small device that can be mounted on your bike's handlebar - and takes our Smart Ecosystem of Products to the next level. With the UNIT 1 Remote, you'll unlock these two features in both our Smart Helmets and Smart Lights:

• Turn Signaling
• Automatic Brake Light

Turn Signaling

At the tap of a button, your Smart Helmet and/or Smart Light will display turn signals for left & right turns, making the rider’s intentions known to traffic and other riders alike. No more messy hand signals! Oh, and they can be set to turn off automatically (for the forgetful type) or manually with another press of the button.

Automatic Brake Light

The UNIT 1 Remote hosts a bunch of sensors that can detect a rider slowing down or stopping. This will trigger a powerful brake light to make sure anyone behind the rider gets a heads-up and adjust speed accordingly. You can choose between 3 different sensitivity levels to match your riding style.

Is the UNIT 1 Remote included with our Smart Helmets?

The UNIT 1 Remote is not included with our Smart Helmets - it's an add-on that can be purchased separately. Why? Because we don't want people who don't need it to be paying extra for it. Learn more here.

Does the UNIT 1 Remote work with touch, or does it have physical buttons?

The remote has physical buttons (and very much on purpose): when designing it we were adamant on having 'no-look' controls, so physical cues are important. The top on the remote is actually one huge button. To activate the turn signals you can press on either side or just nudge the crease in the middle. The nudge is great for 'finding' the button with your thumb, too :)
