Hey guys, same question to this one..
I'm gonna go buy my first fullface helmet once my balaclava arrive from shopee.. cuz usually shops need you to wear one before allow testing
Anyway, currently im looking at 2 brands for first fullface helmet
HJC CS15 (RM450++) - seems like more suitable for round head?
KYT TT Course (RM450++) - apparently more spectacles friendly, unsure about the head shape. All they mention is just 'Asian Fit'
Also, I think TT Course uses micrometric buckle/strap, but I see shops sell Double D rings as well? Kinda confused on this
As for HJC I think it is Double D rings but its like a 5-6 year old design already. Not sure how old are the existing stocks in the market. I see some shops are running very low on stocks and only available for the bigger sizes ( L / XL)
how effective are the vents actually? and what's the speed needed for it to be effective?
My Zeus helmet also have vents but i feel like their fake :/
both at a similar price range, but wondering have any of you guys tried these helmets before?
I have a round head shape, even wanna buy specs can be quite a hassle for me due to my wide head
Currently using a Zeus helmet, forgot the model, but its in XL size (used for riding lesson and test - currently riding nearby while familiarizing with my bike - z250)
only way to know is go and test.
As for DD and micrometric, i'm ok with either. Micrometric is easier with gloves on, but DD feels more secure, as you need to tighten it to fit everytime manually.
I just ordered a Zeus 613 convertible as a spare helmet (when my Rpha 70 is wet or being cleaned) or when I fancy an open face. Paid 280 on shopee after discounts. Should arrive in a few days. Not much expectations for it, but for the price paid, jadilah.
As for ventilation, many factors will affect ventilation. Just make sure there are internal channels in the EPS, otherwise the vents wont have anything to vent. Helmet design, vent location, rider position, if your bike has an windscreen, all effects ventilation.
