Anyone know about these helmets?
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260778420...
I saw these helmets in another thread, does anyone know about these? they are around 200 bucks and it says they are a modified version of the aerothrust speed master helmets, they are modified to be safer.
They look pretty legit, but i dont really understand the prices? I think they are around 200 but it says 50 bucks for some reason on the actual ebay price....
Cheers

hey bro, i looked at these helmets a while ago, they're made in china and shipped direct, they're sizes are quite big, and they arent very safe, but yes, a guy on silverfish helped a guy out to modify the helmet to perfection, but theyre still not that good, and according to their website, they've gone out of business.

the chin strap is quite unusual
besides that it looks like a swell lid
most helmets would be similar (EPS thickness wise etc.) so shouldn't be too big a problem

the shipping and actual helmet price is just so ebay doesn't get get theier share of the two hundred dollar's, so take the helmet price and the shipping price and then the shipping to australia price and add them all up theirs ya final price, did that make sense?

thats not correct matt, usps medium size box is 47.00 USD or something, anything bigger size of a nintendo 64 comes under this price. they are just that cheap. because they're made in china, just remember, you get what you pay for. and they're smallest size start at like a large with in their case is 60cm( most people have bout 57-58)

It says in the description that they just put it as 50 bucks because its cheaper for them to put high shipping and low price

except for charley and some icaro's, pretty much most helmets come out of china, including safety standard pushbike and motorbike helmets. Not sure where that mentality comes from, generally if you make helmets for 12 hours a day, 6 days a week, you get pretty good at it....
These helmets look alot better than icaro's.... except it looks like the cost is weight... fair bit heavier than an icaro / charley
