carbonfiberhelmets.com, anyone?

Does anyone own a helmet from carbonfiberhelmets.com? If so, what do you think? Does it fit well and is it worth the price?

I think they're pretty cheesy. It'd be one thing if it was a full face helmet but for a skull cap the weight difference would be negligible.

Agreed, if they produced a full face helmet I'd be interested but alas none.

I just ordered on those helmets, I have recently gotten a collection of helmets together so hard finding a comfortable helmet that dosent make your head look like a mushroom recently got a scorpion ex200 the black and yellow one its pretty comfortable

I have a Vemar full face carbon helmet.
Very light and the most comfortable helmet I own (16 and counting)
Down side is it's very expensive. I got it when it was on sale.



The HJC Carbon is larger and bulkier.
Joe Rocket has one out (made by HJC) that is essentially the same but styled a little different.

Nothing cheesey about them I own one and its very much worth the price its very comfortable, looks good , and dosent cook you in the hot weather. I recomend them any time! you can see and hear everything your head is not in a fish bowl . If iam in a jet fighter or a race car ill wear a full helmet but those are the only exceptions
