i have always been the you get what you pay for kinda guy especially with bike gear , but it shows that its not all crap

Now then sunshine, I'm with you on this, but we appear to be up against significant scepticism.

It is incumbent upon you to see your assertion through...... a video perhaps, or at least some images in order to demonstrate what you're talking about.

Don't let me down.

you can actually use facebook...... upload them in a post for 'only me', then when you click on the image, right click and open in new tab, copy the link and insert it here between [img AND [/img

works for me

Sounds great , don't have Facebook....
Only one it let me post due to file size

I tried to make the photos smaller by shooting them in a lower res so would post but that's only one that came under 1mb , what's the site people have been using?

Does it conform to the standards of other manufactures?

Carbon_ZX6R

quality is defiantly on par (feel , lining etc) with my old suomy spec 1R which wasnt cheap , and id say exceeds my old agv ti tech , both wore top end helmets in there range , my current helmets are a bell m5x carbon and an agv compact , and its easily comparable , if it had agv or arai on it and wasn't pretending to be a £1000 helmet i wouldn't bat an eyelid at it

it exceeds all the required standards , its not ACU recognised however , and gets 4/5 for Sharp

i would say the lower end helmets of all the major brands should be worried if the "cheap helmets" are now this well made , as 4-5 can be had for the price of one

So it wouldn't qualify for Track use without ACU accreditation...I now wonder if that because it would fail to meet their standards...or it was never intended for our market.

Carbon_ZX6R

could be either i suppose , not sure what standards it would have to meet for acu , and if that would be comparable to sharp
