Thinking about importing these, would love to get a general reaction.

They are very nice quality. Solid, light and seem to be constructed to above average standards. They are made by MOMO, the Ferrarri racing and performance company...

The definitely have a sort of "Viking" look to them.

Momo makes good stuff ... would probably have to put one on thought before you could decide just how good they really are.

 

[karl_996]

what kind of price range would they be?
I know Momo stuff for cars is quite pricey.

is it DOT or SNELL certified?

the blue and black ones would look cool on a 2K2 R1

If I knew the price range, I could give a more honest answer.

I'm shopping for a helmet right now, and that yellow and black one is definately high on my list. :hubba

 

[JackInTheBox]

Looks like it's got rabbit ears on them! :laughing But they do look futuristic and kinda cool. I'd bet that AaUuuuGaa! would buy the yellow one at least.

 

[Destitute]

The black one is very cool. If the silver "ears" were the same color as the helmet I'd like it better. Price?

 

[IcEyZf]

WTF! there pretty slick look'n Rez how does the visor work on that? Venting any good? You have the specs on them?:cigar

 

[Sleil]

Price and specs would help out a lot.

If there was an option to have some of them have full colors (instead of silver) it would be a lot more attractive with some bikes/helmets.

 

[sargent]

If I remember right, they are in the average of helmet prices $300 - $400 maybe?? I could be wrong on that. But I do know that those would be a big hit with the street fighter crowd :thumb

Rez, By the way, are you heading to Indy this winter for the Dealer show??

 

[ziadel]

if they ain;t DOT and SNELL appreoved, I would'nt even bother Rez...

if they are, GET EM!

 

[Rez]

Rez, By the way, are you heading to Indy this winter for the Dealer show??

Yeah, we got the invites.... Me and smokestack (Shawn) will probaly be there representing!!!

 

[AdamTLS]

I like the styling, but need the specs and DOT/Snell/pricing to say if I'd buy one...

 

[Rez]

To achive a DOT rating, you must apply for one. These are imports, that never even applied. They do pass the BSI standars, which are as stringent as DOT. They are even up for EEC-225

Like the ROOF I wear. It is not DOT or SNELL. Why? Cause DOT onever tested one. It's not that if it doesn't have that rating, it's a bad or cheap lid.

The Roof Diversion is the ONLY helmet so far to pass EEC 225 (UN standards)

Others, that you are familiar with, and carry a DOT rating have failed this rating.....


I think the EEC rating will be the global standard in the next few years.

With a voice like cycleforums, we may even have the power to make them listen to US, and have things like this better defined..

Global.................... it changes everything.....

Interesting styling, but maybe a little too Power Ranger-ish for me. I am happy to see some companies are thinking different though.

 

[EZDozzit]

Me like! But how much??:confused

 

[Reyndogg]

They look pretty cool

What about accessories for them such as clear/tinted visors? Any word on them?

 

[SprintST]

Too many edges for me. Looks like it'd be a loud helmet. And what's with those wings? If they're vents they don't look good, to me. But that's me, a conservative guy:shrug

 

[Pulser955]
