I have a SUPER73 Malibu and have been riding for a year without a helmet. Pulled out a retro on and as expected the foam fell apart. Bought this one before reviews and after watching your review it’s nice to find one that is relatable to 30mph e bike. Great review, thanks for the video!
I got this helmet for freestyle bmx since I got back into it at age 30, I used to wear full face back when I was a teenager. Full face are supposed to be snug fit that what a lot of reviewers dont get on amazon
kobEVision a lot of people saying order size up so I ordered a small instead of medium and good I did because the medium will be wiggling around and wouldn't protect my head and face as much.
I got a dot motorcycle helmet the round type I have a small head I got the medium it is a little tight ..I never wore it yet but the padding will loosen up after a while.
Thanks for the upload. You'll have to let us know if it interferes with your peripheral vision while riding. Another consideration is you will likely be sweating in that thing. Can the padding be removed for cleaning?
Mark Evans the helmets awesome but I had a random crash because my specialized (my bikes brand) chain got jammed or something and I got thrown sideways I didn’t need the helmet because I slid about 30 feet on my Mountain pack only injury I had was a little cut in my ankle but again I was on a paved path going home and for how fast the crash was and how fast I hit the ground I’m super glad I had the pack on saved me a super bad back road burn but the helmet didn’t even touch the ground which I guess is also lucky didn’t scratch the paint.
Did you have to order the visor? Been wondering if it comes with one and the option they provide is an upgraded one or if it doesn't come with one at all and needs to be selected.
@@Lumberbutton Do you guys honestly think this helmet will protect you in an accidental fall going 28mph (or faster)? I'm just asking because this helmet is certified for bicycles and not electric anything. Would this helmet be sufficient protection for speeds between 20-30mph?
@@jessa.3857 You're only ever going to sustain those speeds intermitently. With that being said with my limited googling the benefit you get from this helmet vs a normal bike helmet is that it will protect your face and teeth. A motorcycle helmet would be way too tiring if you expect to be doing any peddling.
Typical bike helmets are just silly looking. Styrofoam with a bunch of holes cut out. Every time that I see one it reminds me of a bunch of bananas on someones' head. Ya gotta admit they look ridiculous. Strapping on some painted foam just doesn't seem safe for your noggin. Full-face is the way to go if your planning on riding faster than two M.P.H.
I finally got mine and I'm incredibly disappointed! To say its very well made is a long stretch, I'm sorry. The material feels like bubblegum machine toy plastic, its really bad. I'm scared to use it because I dont want a shard of busted plastic embedded in my skull because I know its not going to hold up. There is virtually no inner padding either. I even got the MIPS version too. Its a really cheap poorly made helmet. You can find Fly helmets for less that are a lot better made than these and Fly is complete garbage too. I'm definitely sending mine back asap.
@@smidgelife Its like a cheap Walmart Bell helmet but without the hard foam. It would actually be better off with hard foam, thats how much padding is lacking inside thos helmet. Absolutely pointless to even provide MIPS.
@@smidgelife Its probably the meanest looking helmet I have seen that's not too far out there and the gimmicks are actually pretty cool for once. Its a really big shame it's so cheaply made. I just gotta drop my opinion here being this review is what compelled me to buy it.
Also wanna do yourself a favor and get the team visor. The one provided is total garbage and they obviously cooked up some scheme to get you to spend more money by making you pay for the real visor.

Great review! I got this helmet for my Boosted Board and I love the light weight and snug fit!

Thanks for the insight. Good point.

Great info
Thanks for the demo.

Good questions the visibility is still good; you see the edge but its really not bad at all. Removable, washable helmet liner.

Also you look hella cool walking into a restaurant with your too other friends with the helmets on
yes all inside padding can be removed as well as washed.
Great review, thanks for taking the time to film and edit it.
Thankyou
Nice review Kobe! 👍
My head also measures 23" sharp. How did the helmet brake in?
It was still a fairly tight fit for me but did feel safe. I don't have it anymore but the quality was good for sure.
@@smidgelife followed your advice and went a size up and it worked perfectly!
@@smidgelife did you find something you like better? Btw, great job on your video.
No unfortunately I never did. I now have the Tenways electric bike that's non throttle and much less like a motorcycle 🤣
headset on their website ? what do you mean
the are supposed to be tight but good vid

It comes with the visor. Well made too
Thanks for demo. How was the Peripheral vision while wearing the helmet?
Vision was good. No major loss. Felt very safe. Just a bit overkill for commuting I think. Great for off-road.
Nice video my ebike goes 24mph u think I should get one ..
I just bought one for an ebike I recently ordered
@@Lumberbutton nice ... 😁
@@gregoryburkhead7813 if you look on their site, they have the one with MIPS b-stock for $80.

Would u recommended this helmete or stick to bell/fox
This is a good helmet...just didn't suit my purpose. I've not yet tried Fox. Bell is always good.
What width is your head? I’m 58” and don’t know weather to get large or xl
I would go for the XL I'm a 57. I tried the large but I find it too tight.
