Not much of anything left really

I just bought one of these lidl cheap helmets lol and they undergo the same tests as every other helmet on the market b4 allowed to be sold.These helmets actually have a better safety rating than some arai helmets and beats the £500.00 scuberth c3 flip up helmet in some tests lol.Do your research and dont just think because its expensive its safe or cheap and unsafe.
They only had XL's left - wifes head (medium / 56) so no good.Quote:

Safety tests show now alegiance to brand names - they are recognised European or international standards to prove resistance, strength & endurance capabilities.
They're your heads guys, you put them in whatever you want, it's a free country.
Question - If a £40 flip-front lid from Lidl is as safe as an Arai, why aren't they permitted on track? :-? :-? :-?
I guess you mean the Sharp rating?Quote:

I bought some of the body thermal gear - very cumfy indeed
(better than merino by the way)
I will buy a helmet for my better half elsewhere - fit was poor for her head shape.
If higher safety spec is down to cost perhaps someone can explain how some of the £350-£400 helmets have only 2 and 3 star ratings? :-/
Nothing to do with clever marketing of a brand name then?
