Pittsburgh, PA (January 15th, 2008) Cardo Systems, Inc., the world's market leader of Bluetooth® headsets for motorcycle helmets today announced the launch of its new scala-rider Q2® intercom enabled headset for bikers. The highly anticipated scala-rider Q2® helmet-mounted Bluetooth® headset provides safe and handsfree Bike-to-Bike communication for up to an impressive 1,600 ft. / 500 m * In the wake of the highly popular scala-rider® line of products, the new scala-rider Q2® now further expands the already feature-rich company offerings for bikers.
The scala-rider Q2® features Multiple Device Connection (MDC) technology, which allows bikers to connect to several audio sources in parallel including the following: Voice instructions from a GPS, mobile phone conversations with third parties, intercom conversations with passengers and with other bikers, and high-quality FM radio transmissions from the embedded FM module.
“The scala-rider Q2® incorporates everything we have learned from the more than 250,000 customers who have purchased a scala-rider® headset,” said Abraham Glezerman, Chairman and CEO of Cardo Systems. “The scala-rider biker community has been demanding a high-quality Bike-to-Bike intercom headset and we are happy to accommodate that request. The scala-rider Q2 shows that we continue to push the envelope in our commitment to provide bikers with superb communication products that excel in terms of safety, convenience, ruggedness and ease of use”
The Cardo scala-rider Q2® is fully backward-compatible with the entire line of earlier scala-rider models (solo, Combo, FM and TeamSet) . In addition to MDC technology and Bike-to-Bike intercom, it offers the same high-quality performance as in previous scala-rider models, including wind impact reduction, voice controlled receipt and rejection of incoming calls, automatic volume adjustment according to driving speed and ambient noise, full rain and snow protection and more.
The new multi-featured scala-rider Q2® is now available through select distributors, retail outlets, specialty motorcycle shops, and directly from the Cardo Systems web site at www.scalarider.com.
