XmisterIS Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 Hi all, I am sure this has probably already been posted somewhere, but here it is again: http://sharp.direct.gov.uk/ I have a KBC VR1-X, which, it turns out, is a three-star ... not bad for an eighty quid helmet! Quote
Guest Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 if you have any faith in a flawed test that is! Quote
XmisterIS Posted November 11, 2008 Author Posted November 11, 2008 Flawed?? Warum wirt es rissig gemacht??!!Why is it flawed??!! Quote
techno Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 It has been said that where the sharp test is carried out on the helmets are not necessarily where impacts occour. Quote
XmisterIS Posted November 11, 2008 Author Posted November 11, 2008 I gotcha!Mind you, I looked in the "about sharp" section of the website and it seems that they test the helmets from all sorts of angles, speeds, head shapes, etc. Quote
techno Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 Thing is if somebody offered you a top of the range arai rx7 (£450) woulod you say no I would prefer the lazer lz6 (£60)?I know which I would have! Quote
XmisterIS Posted November 11, 2008 Author Posted November 11, 2008 Lol! Fairy snuff ... on that note when I took my bike in for a service, I tried on one of their top-notch helmets (£300) and it was soooo comfortable compared to my 80 quid thing! No idea what make it was, but it was nice. Quote
