what has supprised me is a fair few £50 helms actualy have a 5* sharp rate
also the cheaper Caberg flip has a 5* and the more expensive one has 4*
but even the 5* flip only had the front flip stay in place in 80% of the crash tests....... 80%??? so you have a 1 in 5 chance of the front comming undone in a crash yet it gets 5* lol
the sharp rate dose seem to concentrait on just a few very small areas of impact and dont seem to give much of a overall rate to a helm thats for sure.
you do seem to pay for quality, but dont seem to have to pay much to get safety.
without testing the fit yet it seems to be down to the
the qwest or back to the S4 the reviews and stats on the qwest do look damn good and if it fits well i can see the bike will be parked up for a month or 2 so i can afford it lol.
