Dumbest Product of the Week

AustinBikeBlog's Don King Yakkay Helmet

AustinBikeBlog's Don King Yakkay Helmet

Austin Bike Blog’s “Dumbest Product of the Week” is a series we bring you each Friday to highlighting the silly, useless things being brought to you, the American consumer, in a fleeting chance that we might all think twice about what we are doing before we buy one more widget. While we try to focus on things tangentially related to cycling, we reserve the right to single out any dumb product with the ridicule it deserves. Enjoy!
